Pinetuck Golf Course
Played On 6/28/2013Good course for under $20...
We found a deal for $13 each which makes it hard to pass up. The staff is very friendly. It is mainly one guy in the pro shop and one cart attendant/grounds keeper. It definitely has a small course feel and is great for a beginner. Most holes are pretty open and reachable in regulation. The greens are usually kept up very well and the fairways are on par with what you would expect from a course small town, little course. Nothing fancy, but playable for the right price.
P.S. It is cash only in the snack area.

Played On 6/22/2013It's a good thing we only payed $13...regulars are rude.
We drove and hour to try this course and had the first tee time of the morning which apparently that didn't sit well with the "friday regulars". They quickly began to push us on hole one and we were keeping an above average pace of play. The pro shop attendant caught us on hole 6 or 7 and asked if we'd let them play through (guess they called him?) because apparently they generally do not even finish the hole if it worse than a birdie. The worker apologized for them, but you could tell he wanted to make sure they were kept happy since they were regulars. We said ok which now caused us to be in the middle of three foursomes all playing their own makeshift tournament. They were leaving markers on greens for the other groups and pushing us. Not fun. We held our ground and on the back nine, so they started jumping holes and playing around us and others.
All in all we liked the openness of the course. Even the long par 4's were short though. If you don't have t deal with the friday morning make shift tournament than i would say play it. It would be a great course for a beginner or someone trying to work out their irons.

Played On 6/22/2013Very nice course
This course was challenging because no matter where you hit the ball it seemed unlikely to find a flat surface. The fairways had lots of planned undulation, but for the most part seemed to funnel to the middle. It was very crowded the day we played, but everyone seemed to keep pace and be understanding if you had to take a second to look for a ball. We played this as part of a Golf weekend marathon where we tried as many new courses as possible. We payed $35 each which seems like a great deal, but until i can hit my drive a little straighter i will not be going back.

Played On 6/21/2013Hidden gem...
Pro's: Plenty of tee box options to accommodate all skill levels. The water coolers on the course are filled with bottled water which is a nice touch. It has lots of elevated tee boxes which makes for a nice drive. Fairways are generous and greens are kept well. They alos just got brand new gas powered carts...always fun.
Con's: It can be hard to find, so make sure you call and get directions. Sometimes mapquest send you to a random gas station.
