BayWood Greens, 18 Hole Championship Golf Course, Public, Clubhouse, Restaurant, Long Neck, Delaware
I am probably the only person that has made a friendship through the Census. Yes, her name is Annie Hall. I thought it was a joke when she first called. She asked me for lunch the other day and we decided to meet at BayWood. I had never been there; only had seen it from Rt. 24. Always amazed at the flowers; could not imagine how beautiful it was going to be once I was inside the complex. BayWood Greens is not only an 18 Hole Championship Golf Course; it is also a community.
BayWood Greens is located on Rt. 24, Long Neck, Delaware. It is about 15 to 20 minutes from Rehoboth Beach. Best way to get there is: From Rt. 1 take Rt. 24 West. It will be 7 miles to the BayWood entrance on the left. The website is www.baywoodgreens.com. Tel. 302-947-9225, 302-947-9800.
As you are driving in, there are gardens everywhere. Constant care and attention to detail is what immediately came to my mind.
At a distance I could see the Clubhouse. Again, flowers, fountains, and what a beautiful day it was.
There is plenty of parking and just a short flight of stairs in order to access the main entrance.
Again, the entrance was full of flowers.
As I came into the reception area I could see that the Clubhouse had a very sophisticated air about it. I asked the hostess if we could sit outside. If you want to sit inside, there are plenty of choices. But, on a day like last Friday, who wants to sit inside?
The Verandah was the perfect choice. A wonderful breeze and comfortable tables.
From the Verandah you had an expansive view. I can see why so many brides choose this spot. It is called the Wedding Garden. The wedding photos must be spectacular.
The Clubhouse is open for lunch and dinner. Brunch on Sundays, as well. There is plenty to choose from. Soups, Salads, Sandwiches, Dinner Appetizers, Entrees and Desserts.
It was so comfortable and relaxing that I felt I was on vacation somewhere else.
I chose the Baywood Bleu Cheese Salad. This is their signature salad with mixed greens, gorgonzola bleu cheese, roasted red peppers, red onion, artichokes, dried cranberries, cucumbers, tomatoes, Kalamata olives, and Genoa salami tossed in a honey Dijon dressing. You would think that it would be enough but I also had grilled chicken on top. It was the perfect salad. The dressing was delicious and the combination of all those vegetables, dried cranberries and salami gave it that sweet and salty taste. Very very good.
Annie Hall had the Steakhouse Salad which was grilled flank steak served over mixed greens with corn, roasted plum tomatoes, and avocado tossed in a BBQ Ranch dressing and topped with fried shallots. She decided that instead of the Ranch dressing whe would order bleu cheese and said that it was delicious.
We talked and talked. Our server as so nice and came to check on us from time to time. We were happy,though.
After our lunch Annie had to leave and I just strolled around the grounds.
There is also a Golf Pro Shop which is separate from the Clubhouse.
BayWood is busy. They have a Summer Concert Series. The first concert will be Monday, May 30th from 5:30 until 8:00 p.m. It will be held in the Wedding Garden. The concerts are open to the public and they are free. There will be a Memorial Day BBQ. You know, hamburgers and hotdogs. The entertainers will be The Cruzers. For more info. and reservations, call 302-947-9225.
The following sounded like fun. BayWood Clubhouse Restaurant has a Birthday Promotion. They will give you a discount equivalent to your age!! If you are turning 42, please go and get your 42% off your entree. If you can’t make it on your birthdate then celebrate your special day anytime during the calendar week of your birthday. Sunday to Saturday.
Then there is the Anniversary Promotion. Discount equal to the years of marriage. And if you have been married 10 years or less, they will still give you a 10% discount. Just remember that the discount applies to entree portion of total check. And, promotions are not available with other offers or discounts.
Please visit the website above mentioned because you can find a whole schedule on what is going on at BayWoods.
I recommend it to anyone that wants to have a good and relaxing lunch. The setting is gorgeous. I cannot wait to try dinner and feel the atmosphere at that time of the evening.
Have a good one!! Talk to you later…
