GIBSON ISLAND GOLF COURSES

The Chesapeake Bay's brackish winds shape every shot on this Maryland peninsula layout, where elevation changes and mature hardwoods demand strategic club selection over pure distance. Tidal marshes frame several holes, creating natural hazards that punish wayward approaches while rewarding players who embrace the bay's unpredictable gusts. The closing stretch along the water tests your nerve with forced carries that separate weekend warriors from those who truly understand coastal golf.
