Fun experience

Beautiful course, especially this time of year. Staff was friendly. Greens were nice, quick, firm. Tee boxes were a little beat up. Fairways were good, a little tight. Not a long course, but lots of difficult holes and fun shots. Definitely need some sort of map of the course if you've never played. I do not recommend walking this course unless you really want a good workout.

Great back nine.

Booked this after trying to scramble for a last minute tee time, never played here before but I enjoyed the quirky course. The front nine is fairly easy that winds through a neighborhood with enough signage to find your way from tee to tee. The back nine is a complete 180, its exactly what I would expect to see in Haverhill, oddly reminds me of the HCC.

Great layout Great Course

The layout of this course In the friendliness of the staff continues to amaze me. I continued to keep coming back to this course because it's one of my favorite layouts on the north shore. If you're looking for a straight easy boring golf course this is NOT the course for you. Bradford rewards smart play and good placement of your tee shot. Mr. Murphy and his staff are one of the best around and should be commended for their smooth running of this golf course.

Tough love

Course was in great shape, greens were pinched but overall great price for weekend! Course is challenging but is rewarding if you can target shots. Staff was super friendly, definitely recommend this venue for better golfers.

Nice course. Cool holes. Maybe not worth it?

The gps on 2 carts didn’t work. By the time I got going on the third cart GPS was on but after hole 1 I found the third cart wasn’t outfitted the a scorecard.

The GPS doesn’t have yardages???? It’s there merely to keep you off certain parts of the course. Useless.

Also serval pot holes on the paths. It had just rained heavily so some paths were drowned so badly you couldn’t avoid splashing water into the bottom of the cart.

Few touches would have made it a very good experience.

Poor upkeep & poor par 5’s

Driver is optional on par 5’s. They are zig zag iron shots with the 3rd iron shot onto the green. If you are decent.

Have fun chipping off dirt on the back 9

Quite disappointed for the $

Per person cart at $22 is very steep. Then they ask you if you want one for your couple or your own. Just buy one?

poor upkeep

challenging layout but its a maze of a course zig zagging through neighborhoods. The cart paths are full of pot holes and broken up pavement. Tee boxes beat up and uneven. dont waste your time or money here. plenty of other nice courses in the area. Not a walk-able course
very poor upkeep, management should be ashamed. waste of a day playing this course and wont be going back until its fixed up

An impossible layout in poor condition

I was unhappy with all aspects of this course and will not be returning. The course conditions, especially the tee boxes, were not good and the layout was incredibly difficult for most golfers. I would not recommend this course to an average golfer. Maybe a low handicap would find it very challenging.

Best fairways and greens around especially for a public course. Somewhat challenging layout that makes you think hard about every shot and makes you a better player. Staff was extremely welcoming and friendly. Definitely would recommend to anyone looking for a great golf experience.

Dangerous round

We had a 4some of local league members behind us. Drove the ball 5 feet from me , while I was on the green. No fore call, no apology not that I would have accepted it. Same group drove into us again, no fore call. Obv they were pounding beers the whole time. Then they all gathered in the parking lot drinking, no masks no distances and laughed about it. Don’t go during weeknights. Typical inner club drunk members that will seriously injure someone some day.
