If you head to Atlantic City, you're probably going for gambling and the myriad other vices the city offers, but you should take a break from the tables and check out Seaview, located less than 20 minutes from the casinos.

The resort offers two courses, Bay and Pines, with impressive pedigrees. The Bay Course is a Donald Ross layout that was rerouted in 2006 and used to host an LPGA stop; the Pines Course is a Toomey & Flynn design that dates to 1929. On an early Saturday morning recently, I found that the Pines provided a soothing respite after a long losing night in the casinos.
