The course features the only consecutive holes in America playing to the same double green. The Par Five, 2nd playing 508 yards and the par three, 3rd 190 yards play to a 16,000 square foot green set along a tidal marsh of the Assawomen Bay.

The signature hole, the Par three 5th plays directly over the marsh to a green surrounded by water on three sides. This hole plays from 89 to 218 yards, and also provides spectacular views of the Ocean City skyline.

The back nine holes play along the St. Martin's River and through the trees and marshland that have been undisturbed since the beginning of time. The Par Three 11th and Par Five 12th play directly along the river.
