Better than expected.

Course was in nice shape (greens aerated a few weeks before). Very walkable. Decent test from the blue tees. Played in 4:15 on a weekend. Snack cart came around repeatedly. All good.

Fast Greens

First time playing here. Course was in great shape. Very good layout but the greens were the star of the show here. Fast, undulated and well protected. Would need to play here a few times to score well. Mix of doglegs and you will need every shot in your bag. Very impressed. Won’t find better greens around here that the public can play and yes, that includes pine hills.

Nice Course

First time playing Halifax and really impressed. Course in excellent condition with plenty of dogleg with decent length from white tees. Greens are very fast so beware.

Halifax has very nice practice facilities for chipping and putting too.

Nice course

Overall a nice course but not that many memorable holes. Condition quite good.

Restaurant closed, Pro shop a bit bare-bones and not that many options, lot of leaves everywhere and could have been cleaned in areas where typical balls land after a drive off the tee.

Golfnow needs to be in communication with the Course

Everyone knows eastern Massachusetts got hit hard with a nor’easter earlier in the week, Tuesday night to be exact. Here it is the following Sunday… i booked a 1:00pm tee time for Halifax CC. Golfnow did not state the course only had 9 holes open, golfnow charged me for a full 18 hole rate. So after the kid at the proshop tells us 9 holes only we bite the bullet and go play. The course Should Not of even been open. The first 3 holes were under water. Maintenance did not blow off any fairways. The place was a disaster. Dont open the place if its not ready for play. I played Atlantic CC on Thursday of the same week. Two days after the storm… not even a comparison of how much better of a cleanup Atlantic did over Halifax.

Dont open the course and charge top dollar if your fairways are under water. And state your only allowing people to play the front 9. I feel like the course and golfnow should state something on the app. Verry disappointed i wastedmy time on a Sunday afternoon. Flat out Terrible conditionss.

Best Public Golf In This Part of Massachusetts

Always GREAT condition -- tees / fairways and best greens. Perfectly smooth and fast surfaces .... you're ball rolls better than anywhere else. Tremendous design and plenty of room to hit the tee shot even with most holes being beautifully tree lined.

Like a Park

Had not played Halifax in several years. Like being in a park. Few houses on course. Peaceful. Busy but not crowded. Very challenging and lengthy. Excellent and fast greens and overall in very good condition.
