Ok Course

Course was in decent condition. Played from the blue tees and course played tough as fairways were narrow, rough thick and deep, a lot of blind shots with sloping fairways that made it difficult to keep the ball out of the rough. Greens were small, either narrow or short which also added to the difficulty in hitting the greens in regulation. Several greens were significantly slope and very wet which made it difficult to judge the speed. Tee boxes were small, even and a bit beat up. The range was in poor condition and could not hit driver or woods.

Nice Layout with Beautiful Views But Sub-par Conditions

In Town for a few days and figured I’d play Ashton Hills and Heron Bay. Played them two days apart and what a difference in conditions. Ashton Hills had immaculate fairways and fast true rolling greens in great shape. Heron Bay fairways in okay condition and greens were slow and bumpy with a lot of bare, burnt spots. Not what I was expecting for the price at Heron Bay, which was twice as expensive as Ashton Hills. The views at Heron Bay were very nice and the course has a challenging and picturesque layout. I just figured for the money the greens would be in pristine condition.

Excellent, except for 18th hole

Course was in outstanding shape. Greens were a little slow but true. The layout was great, except for the last hole. The 18th hole must have been converted from a par 5 to a par 3 to allow for some convention center expansion. It would have been or was a great finishing hole as a par 5 to an island green. Instead, they put in what almost looked like a temporary tee for the par 3 last hole. What a disappointment for the finishing hole. Otherwise, course is great and I look forward to playing it again when I am in the area.

Course is a great value

Course is one of the best public courses in the Merrimack Valley. The course was in Excellent condition with lush green fairways and fast and fast greens. The only drawback is that it does not have a practice range. Otherwise A-plus

Really nice course, but

I play this course a couple of times a year. It has a nice layout and typically is in good shape with a decent pace of play. The pace of play on the Saturday morning was atrocious. Not sure where the ranger was or what happened. We had a 10:40am teetime and ended up teeing off at 10:45am. The pace of play was so slow that we finished the first two holes in one hour. I counted 10 groups of 4 on holes 3 thru 7. I called the pro shop to complain and was told they would get a ranger to see what the problem was. Did not see a ranger until three hours later and the tenth hole. Ridiculous 5 1/2 hour round.

Course was very busy and tired

It was my third time playing this course in three consecutive years, and the course was tired. Fairways has more divots than in years past and bunkers were harder than normal. Tee boxes and greens were in good condition. Pace of play was decent for afternoon in late February.

Fall golf was not a deal

I have played here a half dozen times. The last two have not been very good experiences. Had a 10:50am tee time on Sunday, and the first tee was backed up with two groups in front of us. The course was using temporary tee boxes, where on some holes it so slick and uneven, the footing was difficult. But the worst part was all the leaves on the course, not only in the fairways and bunkers, but On The Green. These were not scattered leaves, there were piles of oak leaves. When I called the clubhouse, the response was there was a nor’easter the day before and they would not be blowing leaves off the course on a Sunday morning. Not a deal! Will spend my golf money elsewhere where they pay a little more attention to the course.

This course is a dog track

The course was in horrible condition. The fairways were beat up and full of crab grass. The rough was full of weeds. The greens were punched. For 18 holes they made us play the back nine twice because they were aerating the front nine. Even for the $30 cost for 18 with cart, I would not go back

Challenging course with undulating fast greens

Excellent course with challenging layout (bunkers and hazards well placed to make each shot interesting). Greens were lightening fast and undulating in true Jack Nicholas fashion. Course was a little expensive but worth it.
