As stated previously, layout is great. Driving range was closed. Fairways were very wet. Greens were fair, but just top dressed. Cart paths only due to wet fairways.

Impressive

First time I’ve given a Golf course a five star rating. Have played Farmstead on and off for 20 years. This is the best condition I have ever seen this course in.
Tees are well-maintained, fairways are like carpets and the greens are pristine and fairly quick. The traps are well-maintained and the fairway roughs are in great shape. The only negative was that I did not play better. Will be back, soon.

Great all-around course

Played Farmstead for the first time today. Absolutely loved the course! VERY well maintained. It was challenging but not overly so. You couldn't spray golf balls all over without getting penalized but you also don't have to be so precise it takes the fun out of it for us amateurs.

I will definitely be back!

Course in Excellent Condition

First time playing at Farmstead and we were very impressed. The grass was pristine even despite the lack of rain we've had in the area in the last month. It was a bit slow for the first few holes but sped up after that. Definitely will be back to play this course, hopefully sometime soon!

Beautiful Day of Golf at Farmstead

I always enjoy playing Farmstead as the course conditions are always good, the staff is friendly, and the course is a mixture of somewhat challenging holes, especially when windy. Strategically placed bunkers both in the fairways and around greens seem to protect most pin placements. No putt is straight as every green has subtle breaks. And the greens are true. Players who can chip well from around the greens and who can read the speed of the greens can score well. There are birdie opportunities, on # 1 and 5 0n the front, and # 11, 12, 14, and 17 are the best opportunities on the back. So good luck and enjoy your round at Farmstead.
