Played Castle Point Golf Course (Canvey Island) on 15th May 2025 ? course was in excellent condition! Greens a bit dry due to the weather, but still rolled well. Shot my lowest score ever, which always helps! ???? Clubhouse was fantastic and the bacon roll was much improved. Highly recommend this place ? great day out! ??????????

Tricky Course
Not a bad course. Suffers from some vandals riding motor bikes on some of the greens. The green keepers do a great job to repair all this and keep the course in good order, well done.I like the overall set up and how the course is laid out. Lacking a good selection of food and drink. Driving range needs to be tided up a bit. we had a good day out.

Played here in April time and the course was not in great condition, but played 3 times in the last 2 weeks and there are some remarkable changes. Fairways are in excellent condition. Greens are getting there, although still some have more weeds the others. Absolute great value for money though.Reviewer Rating

Dont bother
On the plus side the layout is reasonable and staff friendly.There's a reason its cheep. Greens in poor condition and fairways not great.
Bunkers have little sand and cabbages growing out of them.
Spend the extra tenner and play Langdon Hills

Played it a few times lately and yesterday was a breezy sunny challenge as its a links course with twists and turns. However the rough is too long for the general golfer as on a dry day the bounces can take the ball into the rough and makes it difficult to find slowing up play!..also the greens need a bit more attention (just like Belfairs) & and some sand in bunkers would be good too!!!? but overall on a i enjoyed it.Reviewer Rating

Not my favoruite course. Course played surprisingly firm given the recent weather and was in decent condition. The course was just a bit samey, not a lot of variety in hole layout. The locals ruin the experience a bit with public footpaths throughout the course.

A lot to be desired.
Have played this course for over a year now, if only Glendale Golf invested money into CPGC, it would be drastically improved. In winter it’s basically flooded, in summer the greens are scorched, the sprinkler system doesn’t work on back 9. Litter everywhere.Find it a bit naughty to ask for £30 for a tee time.
Could be such a good course if someone cared. The staff however are extremely friendly and helpful.
I mean it’s ideal if you’re new to the game.

AWFUL Condition
The course was in Terrible condition. On the front nine parts of the fairways was wet underfoot. In contrast 7 greens on the back 9 were brown, bone dry with moss, cracking and bobbly. Plus we didn't see a single green keeper on the course. Also, it must be said that it is easy to lose your ball in the first cut off the fairways which is not helped by the fact that mown grass is left there. Have cancelled my subscription.Reviewer Rating

On this date the fairway grass was long and so difficult to find the ball.The "short" rough adjacent to the fairway was too long to find balls so progress and scores were poor. Not in usual condition

Atrocious condition
In absolutely atrocious condition. The greens had no water in the summer so they are just about holding on, some parts of the greens are bare mud, you’d think you were putting through a bunker. There are about 8 greens which are unplayable. The irrigation system needs repairing because it’s flooded in the sprinkler areas where the water can’t escape, it was the same in the summer as some areas were green, some areas hadn’t seen any water for months. Can’t help the fact that someone has used a motorbike to churn the greens up but the areas which are being regrown should be ground under repair, no attempt to keep anyone off. The owners just want the most money they can out of it without investing any money in the course. You’ve renovated the club house, turn your attention to the course because I will never be coming back again. I was charged £26.50 for a round here and wish I had never spent my money. Oh and cut the rough, that’s ridiculous length for amateurs.Reviewer Rating

Shocking Greens
Really disappointed with this course. The greens were the worst I have ever seen. They should be called browns instead of greens! As they were mostly flat rolled mud. What little grass on them appeared diseased or like a motorbike had been doing doughnuts on them! Such a shame as with some attention this could be a good course! But until then I?ll spend my ?28 a round elsewhere!Reviewer Rating
