Ledges Golf Club
Rating Snapshot
About
The Ledges Golf Club in South Hadley is tucked away in the Pioneer Valley, an area of western Massachusetts known for its lush, rolling hills. It is a favorite amongst locals since it is one of the best values in the region. The course enjoys scenic views that stretch to Mt. Tom and the Holyoke Range. It is on the shorter side at just over 6,500 yards from the back tees, but the dramatic changes in elevation make it seem much longer. Most of the greens are raised with steeply sloped sides, making accuracy essential since missing them by even just a few feet will result in a serious penalty. The golf course has a heavily wooded front nine that seamlessly transitions into a more open back nine featuring links-style holes. The Ledges is a shotmaker's course that offers several interesting risk-reward opportunities.

Ledges Number Four, Par 4, 276. The fairway is narrow, with precious little bail-out to its right. A driveable hole for the bold. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 06/22/2022

# Nine, Par 5, 528. These bunkers will snare many an approach shot that is sliced or pushed. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 06/22/2022

The 10th is a classic downhill par-5 of 564; it’s a three-shotter for all but very long, straight hitters. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 06/22/2022

The massive bunker that sides green eleven could be a nightmare for those who aren’t all that handy with a sand wedge. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 06/22/2022

Eighteen (from the left rough): Great finisher where you’ll want to avoid every one of the seven fairway bunkers, including these three. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 06/22/2022

The final hole as seen from its right rough. Getting up and down around this green is no simple task. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 06/22/2022

Will return
Played this course a number of years ago, and didn't remember enjoying it this much. There are a lot of blind shots, but one could generally figure out where to go. Setting was very nice, hilly, scenic, not walkable for many of us, especially with a lot of distance between green and tee. We usually look to play around 6000-6200 yards, but chose whites, at 5500, and were glad we did.
Conditions were fine for early May.
Excellent Early Season Round
Very impressed with the course this early in the golf season @
Great Day @ Ledges
Started on #10. Course and staff (and food after) all tee up to a perfect day.
The Ledges is GREAT
Play it you will like the course, great mix of holes , great for playing a match against friends, Greens are getting better, have been bumpy all year from aeration and slow to fill in. Some days play can be a little slow but that’s all muni’s. All in all a great and fun golf course IF you play the right tees, definitely worth playing
Rain held off
Though we'd be in an all day rain. Rain driving to course, but thankfully stopped. Cart.path only for multiple holes (due to earlier rain) but conditions very good. All plan on a return trip.
Good test of golf
Better players will like this course, nice mix of tees to hit from , the greens are good and course layout great …will enjoy playing this course as long as the pace of play is good …weekends can be slow
Nice views, course is good
The course is in good shape, lots of leaves down this time of year makes it a challenge to find your ball even in the fairways. Course plays long, greens are good, fairways in good shape, some wet areas.
Good experience fun to play.
Great course
Ledges has become one of the regular courses we play. Always in perfect condition and normally a good pace of play.
