COVID-19 Wedding We…read morefell in love and booked this venue a year in advance. Due to COVID-19 restrictions put in place by The Governor Charlie Baker we were unable to hold our wedding as stated in the contract, a contract that we had paid in full. We had to forgo our wedding becuase of the Pandemic and ALL of our vendors except Mill 1 refunded us and were extremely gracious. The owner believed that he was not in breach of contract even though we paid for a space for 50+ guests, a dance floor, & a bar which due to COVID-19 he was unable to provide any of those things. its NO ONES fault that these restrictions were put in place it just comes down to being able to provide what was paid for. None of us would have thought a year ago that we would be "social distancing" and wearing face masks everywhere we go. The owner stopped replying to emails after we asked him straight up (so he would simple have to say YES, he can provide us with was was in the contract or NO, he cannot. ) We had to get our lawyer to reach out and inform the owner that he was in fact in breach of the contract & that further action will be taken if he continues to refuse to return our money. Of course the morning after our lawyer was in touch with him we got an email back from John. This time stating that we could have our wedding at Mill 1 BUT with only 25 people inside or with 100 people outside at another location outside the building of Mill 1 (which by the time our wedding date came around was no longer allowed in MA due to further restrictions put into place). But that is simply thats not what we paid for and were promised by our conrtact that we had signed and paid in full. We paid for the gorgeous building and the ambiance it provides. Not something out in the parking lot with less than half the guests we wanted. John would still not address the fact that we couldnt have a dance floor or a bar. He told our lawyer that he would give us half of our money back but only if we signed an NDA (non-disclosure act) so we couldnt inform the public on how he chooses to run his business no less how he chooses to treat consumers during a PANDEMIC. Our lawyer asked him for that in writing...we never got it. Spoke to our lawyer today (7/29/2020) and we have to formally sue the venue, John Aubin had no response to the letter our lawyer sent over on 7/21/2020. Today is 9/8/2020 and yesterday we finally recieved some kind of correspondance with the venue. We got an email from Regina (event coordinator) asking us if we would be using the space on 9/12/2020 for our wedding. Our attorney reached out to the venues owner John Aubin on 9/5/2020 to inform him that we would be continuing with our choice to not modify our wedding that we had paid in full for & that he could reach out at any time prior to discuss options but either way we would be continuing with legal action against Mill 1. We got no response from him. The email from Regina was fowarded by us to our attorney who kindly informed her of where we stood on the matter. Please note that Regina also mentioned that we needed to respond to her by 9/8/2021 (yes, she said 2021 obviously meaning 2020) so they decided to reach out at 1am, on a Holiday weekend, only 5 days prior to our original wedding date, and give us 1 day to respond, ONLY after the owner recieved notice that we would be persuing further legal action, coincidence? We dont think so either. Today is Monday, 9/14/2020 - our wedding was supposed to be a few days ago, no word from venue. Today is 12/30/2021- Yes, the end of 2021. We haven't heard a thing from John Aubin BUT we got an official court date today. We will see him in court January 26th 2022. Today is 1/26/2022 - Court was cancelled DUE TO COVID (ironic isn't it?) 4/13/2023 TWENTY TWENTY THREE- we've been to multiple court dates and John's tactics have works, we're exhausted new parents and we can't do it anymore ‍ anyways, a word of caution, stay away. We've spoken to SEVERAL other couples who have also had to sue the venue and WON (they got their money back thank goodness)

3.5 rounded up. Partly rounded up because the current review average for this place of 2.5 is…read moreridiculous. I've played this course probably a dozen or so times in the last few years. It's fairly convenient, and more or less equidistant between my place and one of my friends who I play with reasonably often (and who is MUCH better than me...). My last round here was 7/23/2021, and if you're reading this review the same year that I wrote it (2021), you'll likely remember that it rained almost every day for several weeks. Suffice it to say, everything is VERY lush and green this year. The greens were irritatingly slow still, leaving oh so many putts coming up short due to my inability to adjust, but I must say it was refreshing to have what I'd consider an average course have almost zero heavily worn-in or sunburnt spots. I think I moved the ball once all 18 due to a poor lie from lack of growth, and one other time due to it being too muddy and not wanting to risk my new shoes. In terms of the course design and layout, I do have to admit that there aren't many holes that I'd consider memorable. Not much in terms of elevation change or ponds, and sand traps are rarely a challenge (and almost none that aren't right by a green). Overall I think the front nine is more fun, but the back nine is also narrower and more wooded, so it's a little more challenging to keep it in play. The layout also notable requires little walking between holes and zero unnecessary backtracking, so it's very walkable, but if all else fails they have carts that function just fine as well. I can't comment on the food, as I've never had any here. At most I'm usually looking for a quick hot dog at the turn, or maybe a couple drinks during or after the round. Somewhat agreed with one reviewer from a few years ago that the pricing is a few dollars too steep, but it's on par with (ugh, that was unintentional, I swear, but I'm going to leave it) and in some cases less than the other comparable courses nearby (e.g. Topstone, Twin Hills), and a few dollars isn't going to buy my gas and time to go much further. There's admittedly some others slightly further away that are cheaper (e.g. Ledges or maybe St. Anne?), but as a pseudo local they aren't a better overall investment of my time and gas money. Overall, would I go out of my way for this course? Probably not. I'd consider it a very viable option for the 30-minute radius crowd, however, and a fairly viable option for those slightly further away looking to mix it up. Maybe mix it into your rotation if you haven't yet.
