Fun short track...

Interesting course, played <6300yds from the blue, I think the tips were ~6600yds, I’ll probably play those when I go back. So if you’re a long hitter you’ll find yourself going for par 5’s in 2 on a few occasions.
Greens were all pretty awesome, nice fairways and tee boxes and some great views. There were definitely some holes where tribal knowledge would’ve helped my score. So if it’s your first time, pay attention to the gps on the carts for the hole layout.

I’ll be back soon.

Tribal knowledge would really help

There’s a number of risk/reward shots. Playing with someone who knows the course makes a world of difference. A number of times I though it hit a good shot only to make my way to the ball and turns out it was a bad decision. But no way to know that unless you’re at your second shot. Also the greens on the front were way slower than the greens on the back. Overall a decent public course, good price via GolfNow. If I paid more I might have more to complain about.

Great value for the money...

Easy course to walk, very little elevation changes. Course was in great shape overall. It seems like a course that might get a lot of play so for the greens and fairways to be in the condition they were was impressive. Some tee boxes were beat up but wasn’t a nuisance.
The layout was fun, good mix of challenging angles and overhanging trees making you use every club on the bag. Beer cart girl was awesome and came by plenty so no shortage of opportunities to grab a drink.

I’ll definitely be back.

Great New England Course...

The course challenges you to "keep it safe" with its layout, thick woods lining a lot of the holes. But there are plenty of opportunities to work your driver onto the fairways and have some fun. Some really great holes and great views all usually very well kept throughout the year.
The bunkers are frequently tight packed with the occasional loose stone. Play a relaxed rule out of the bunker to save your club, lift and rake because they don't always do a good job with keeping bunkers in good shape.
GPS on all the golf carts is pretty good, convenient when you can't see how far ahead the next group is in front of you or around a corner.
They have one of my favourite driving ranges in the area, all grass only, no mats. Overall one of my favourite courses in the area.

Fun course...

Some holes it makes a big difference whether you are playing from the Green or Silver tees (White or Blue), so decide early and be fair to yourself. I love this course layout, most holes are forgiving, fairways are pretty well kept. There is some maintenance that seems to be constant on #2, but don't miss left on your approach there and you'll be fine.
Overall, it's a fun course, well balanced New England style play. The 19th hole is nothing special, great hot dog stand a few minutes away to hit afterwards. Fair price, no driving range though and some hazards aren't marked well (red/white stakes).

Forgiving and diverse...

Lots of up and downs here, makes it interesting but nothing too challenging. They did a good job of mixing up tight fairways and target golf, never both on the same hole. Since the course is forgiving, players of all handicaps come here, which can sometimes result in slow pace of play, but mornings are usually all members, so depending on your tee time, it may not impact you at all.
Greens were very fast last I played here, much faster on the course vs the practice greens.
Driving range is across the street, bring $5 bills with you for it if you want to hit a few. Sometimes its grass only, but it's more often mats only, which is frustrating. But for a $5 bucket, it's not too bad.
No 9 hole rates available.
