Pace of play a problem

There are no starters, so basically you get in line with however many people you want and tee off. We had a group of 6 {six} teenagers in front of us that all played together. Not one of them could play and balls were flying everywhere. Of course they had to go look for them after every shot. There were no marshals to keep any sort of pace of play so it was a disaster! On a good note, the teee boxes were good, and the greens were excellent. The fairways were a little sparse but playable.

Good value for 25 dollars

The tee boxes and fairways are in need of work. The fairways are crabgrass and hard pan with some grass shhots mixed in. The greens for the most part were in decent shape. A good 25 dollar course, no more.

needs help

The course has continued to go down hill for the past few years.There are no tee boxes left, just sand and weeds. The course is mostly hard pan, the bunkers are half sand half weeds. The rough areas are littered with downed and dead trees and all sorts of plant debris which looks many years old and neglected.The only redeeming feature of the course is the greens. For the most part, they are in decent shape. The course needs a good clean up, and some landscaping care. I hope they do it before they loose it completely.

Very good greens

The greens on the front and back are in very good condition. Front fairways are hard pack with very little grass. Back nine fairways have a bit more cover and in better condition. The back nine is more challenging and a few holes are poorly designed. Overall, well worth the price we paid

Back nine needs a lot of help

The greens on the front nine were good. The greens on the back nine were in terrible condition. They were rotting, had grooves and ruts everywhere. It was like a different course. Terrible!

Hard greens

The greens were extremely hard and nothing would stay. A good shot to the green would roll off, very frustrating. To add to the frustrations, we waited on every hole, one of our foursome left before finishing...waiting was ruining his game. They should space out tee times more to make up for newcomers to the game that take extra time for every shot etc.

Just ok for a cheap price

I have not played this course for a few years because of the deteriorating conditions. I thought I would give it another try. No better. Tee boxes shot, fairways scrubby, greens poor. OK to play for under $30, but barely.

needs maintenance

Played this course some ten years ago. As I remember years ago, it was in great shape. Time has taken its toll on the course and surroundings. Parking lot cratered. Bridges and buildings deteriorating. Overgrowth and trim neglected. fairways drying out and brown...most courses in CT green and lush. Some greens beginning to deteriorate. First golf cart I tried died in the parking lot...had to switch. Bunkers mostly weeds, pebbles and hardpan....very little if any sand. So sad to see a premier course after ten years of neglect. Only saviour was the Golf now hot deal for $25.
