Elite

This course is always worth the money. The 8 am tee time usually will have you done in 3 hours and you will feel as though your the only one on the course. The course is beautifully maintained and the greens are some of the best non-private in the state. The layout is challenging and don’t assume you will use driver off the tee. Many doglegs, elevation changes, and hazards make every shot unique. With that being said, it is very reasonable. Hole numbers 3 and 6 are very reachable par 5s, along with some shorter par 4s like holes number 7 and 15. Mark in the pro-shop is extremely friendly and will do everything he can to ensure you have a great round. Highly recommend this course!

Sunday Golf

We were surprised to learn the practice tees and food service were members only. Putting green was available but nothing beyond that. Beverages and snacks were available via a cart service that appeared often. Course is not marked with yardage and carts do not have GPS. Greens were in excellent condition, rest was average. Women's tee boxes were less than average. Kind of rough for a private course.

Great start to a Wisconsinite’s golf trip

Came in from Wisconsin and loved the course. Course played tough, with the greens proving to be the most difficult part. Norm was a gem, and welcomed us on a crisp and sunny Friday morning. Would recommend this course to anyone interested in playing a Donald Ross course.

Great track

Great Staff
Great history and course layout, the course is not tricked up. What you see is what you get. Very few blind shots which is great for first time play. Tee boxes and greens were sanded so I can not rate them, but the greens rolled very good and true even punched. Fairways are in perfect condition, lots of grass and very little roll out due damp conditions. Well the rough is thick and tough to hit from, definitely a penalty, as it should be on a shorter course. This course is a definite must play.

Agawam Hunt

I shot 72 here with no birdies. This course is absolutely beautiful with quick greens the run true and fairways that are very well kept. There are some elevation changes and blind shots which can make it a little tougher but the layout of the course is phenomenal. The man inside the pro shop was nice as could be and let me take all the plastic tees i could fit in a handful. Will absolutely be returning for more hot deals here. If you keep the ball in play off the tee, plenty of scoring chances to come.

Always a great day.

Never a bad experience when I play here. The rough is brutally tough in most areas. Hit it straight or pay the consequences. 5 stars from me. I'll be back.

Private Country Club with Limited Public Access

This is a classic private country club with a Donald Ross Design. Course is always in great shape. The pro shop staff, Norm and Tom treat you like a member. They are super friendly and helpful, they drive the cart to your car and load your clubs. I’ve enjoyed it so much I’ve played it several times over the summer. Norm gave me a tour of the facilities and I am considering joining here next year. I would recommend you give it a try.

Good price, but course needs some work

Booked the course midweek for a Sunday morning round. Little tricky to find the clubhouse on the street, but found it. Clubhouse attendant was very nice and paired us with another Hot Deal pair. We split off after the first hole and played as 2. Some fairways and tee boxes needed work, but otherwise course was in good shape. Played at our own pace with nobody behind us. No real amenities at the course besides a soda machine and a pop up grill. Also the 18th fairway also doubles as their "driving range." It's a private course that opens to members. Good bargain for a weekend round of golf in late fall.

Wet after heavy rains for couple days but great layout

Greens were awesome, loved the layout and driving through a garage to get to other part of course. (6 holes across the street) the other part of the course which used to be metacomet were a great layout by themselves. I would definitely recommend
