Our group loved the course, even though it was more difficult than people at our skill level should play. The holes were challenging and interesting, and the views were in general quite nice.

The fairway was fairly burnt out, but so far as I can tell, so is every other fairway in Massachusetts right now.

Bottom line is that even though we played through a constant drizzle, we plan on going back, hopefully to nicer weather.

The course is fairly easy, with wide fairways and forgiving rough. There's some water, but it tends to guard the sidelines rather than being something to overcome.

We only got to play nine and a half holes because rain and lightning came in, but what we did play, we liked.

Neither my wife nor I are good golfers, so Wayland is a great place for us. Not a lot of places to get into trouble, and you basically just hit the ball towards the hole, lather, rinse, repeat. Good for a little exercise without torquing off decent golfers who want a competitive round.

I'm a 30 handicap golfer, and my wife only plays when one of my golfing buddies has to cancel. That was the case today at Wayland, and we couldn't ask for a better course for that scenario.

It's flat, not very challenging, beautiful, and well-maintained. Other than some bunkering around the greens, there's not much to hinder one's advancing the ball. Pace of play was a bit slow - we went around in 4:45.
