Course great

Has been a while course in great shape, like the new carts. Greens fast and true. Sand traps sandy, fairways filled.

Would have been at least 5 hours

Booked for 9:40 got off early around 9 am. Counter girl very pleasant. Took 2 1/2 hours to play the front spent a lot of time standing around waiting. Finished the front and took a chance skipping 10...for the next seven holes there were foursomes on the box, in the fairway, and on the greens. Finally got to 17 and was able to play the last two holes. Though the course has improved from previous ownership it isn't worth $48 and a painfully long round. Don't think I'll be back unless it is a late afternoon round when the course is open and the price isn't so steep

New ownership

Was going to play this afternoon with a friend who works for a local School and gets a discount. Did not book a time when I looked at the pricing yesterday but it was listed at $34 at 3 pm so we decided to walk up. I arrived at 2:30 pm and noticed there had been some changes since I was there last, good. The parking lot had maybe 8-10 cars in it and since it was raining overnight up till 9am I expected there wouldn't be many people there. So the gentleman at the counter and the new owner were sharing some of the changes when the counter man told me it would be $46. I live about two miles from this course and have golfed here many times over the last 21 years but I was saddened by the lack of customer service. I am in customer service and am aware that a little bit can go a long way, and a little bad can mean you lose a customer. Not sure I'll be returning.

You get what you pay for....

The price is cheap....and the course isn't good. The clubhouse woman was very friendly and the office was stocked well. The course conditions were so poor I'm wondering if this course is going to close. Tee boxes dirt, sand traps that look like they have not seen sand in months, I had to pull my ball from a number of traps and put them on grass since there was nothing but rocks in them. Some of the greens were weed infested and some had holes filled with sand and covered with metal screens....never seen that before. Cart paths were broken up badly in some places. Overall it looked the worst I've seen it in over five years. Won't be returning.

Felt cheated

Bought this round thinking it was 18 but it wasn't. The course sold the front nine which was the reason we booked. $24 for nine holes is too steep for me, I won't be back.

Pretty good

Got a hot deal price was right good value. The best part of this course is usually the greens...not this time. Not sure what happened to them but bare spots and sand on many. Fairways ok. Bunkers need sand. For the price this is what you would expect.

Good time

Played this course many times, have always enjoyed. Would have given it 5 stars on all categories but the greens are still not back to usual perfection. I assume that this spring will bring them back look forward to playing then

Employees very friendly. Greens were great. Front nine was in better shape than the back nine as the back needed some serious mowing. Will recommend.

Have played Chicopee half dozen times now. The course was in pristine condition straight down the line. I often struggle on this course as I'm not a long hitter and some holes require such hits, but I love challenges and Chicopee is a challenge. Staff were great, and they even had a Titleist rep there giving away ball samples and tips on what type of balls fit your game. Tried the AVX and loved it. Altogether a very enjoyable day.

First time playing Bradshaw Farms, played white/blue. The course was fun, layout was somewhat challenging and interesting. Greens were great, fairways a bit spotty in places but very playable, traps plenty of sand, tee boxes good. All employees very friendly and helpful.

Try to play Chimneys several times per year. Based on the condition of other courses in the area I will probably play more often. The course is in excellent shape all the way around compared to others in the area with weedy or bare greens, sandless bunkers, grassless fairways etc. The value for the money is the best. Oh and the lady who cooks in the cafe makes great food!

Just ok

I play this course a few times a year, and if the greens are as they often are fast and perfect, I tolerate the fairways lack of grass. Today the greens were the poorest I've seen them since they were burnt out a few years ago. They were uneven and contain many weeds. I will continue to play as I like the layout, but I will be waiting a while to see if they can get the greens back into their usual pristine condition.

The greens were much improved since I was here last. Still large patches of clover in fairways, otherwise played very well.
