It was a warm Saturday morning and my middle son Austan wanted to go Iron shopping. Hmmm I thought,…read moreCarl's Golfland at St. Joseph's is the place to get it done. This facility is has everything any golfer could want or need. The selection of clubs, clothing, balls, bags, and so much more will keep you busy for hours. What I like best is the range to test your equipment before you buy. I was lucky to work with Bradly Dolski. Bradly did a good job of making suggestions on clubs and supplying me with complimentary balls to try out my clubs on the range. The selection of clubs seemed endless but I found the set I liked and my son found his club choice as well. The prices are reasonable and you can get your some clubs adjusted to your swing style. Great service and amazing selection of everything golf will keep me coming back. Give Carls a chance and you'll be happy you did.

First the good: The greens were in very good condition. Rolled at a decent consistent pace, and were smooth. Not much more you can ask! Just a head's up, the greens at Beacon Hill is smaller than average, and if you short side yourself, it's a tough up and down. Condition wise the course was in good shape (except for the cart paths, more on that later) Staff was friendly: Guy inside gave me a key to our cart before my buddy got there, and we had a good chat with the starter before our tee time. It was cheap with the Group Golfer coupon, only $31, vs the regular $51 which is currently showing on their website for mid-summer rate. The Bad: I knew ahead of time it was going to be a slow round. When they can't keep their tee times, and are already missing them before noon, that means they have tee times packed too closely together. Sure enough, checking their website, and they have 8 minute tee times. We teed off about 10 minutes late from the expected time, and total play time was 4:54. Man that's a long day. Course managers are so short sighted. 5 hour rounds drive people away. The short term increase in revenue is lost over repeat business, not to mention if we had finished 30-40 minutes earlier we would have hit the bar for some dinner and drinks after the round, but instead we both had to get home. The layout is, let's say, interesting. Two main issues with the layout Beacon Hill: One is that course is totally overgrown with trees. Someone needs to come here with a chainsaw and trim or cut down trees on nearly every single hole (and get rid of that ridiculous tree in the middle of the short par 3). Second, far too many blind shots. Many times we'd have to drive up to see where we were going (and to make sure the group in front was out of the way). Even with GPS it wasn't clear. Blind shots stink. They slow you down when figuring out where you're going, and they slow you down when trying to find your ball. A couple of approach shots are kinda silly (eg #16, impossible to stop the ball on the green, for instance). Third issue, tee markers. My buddy and I are experienced golfers, and absolutely hate it when they fudge their numbers and don't put the tee markers where the card says they should go. We pick specific tees for a reason. We played the "blue" tees, but they were moved up to the white tees on probably 13 or 14 of the holes (and whites were moved to golds). That also screws up the course rating/slope because they are rated for a specific set of tees. Some of us care about our handicap and having accurate info posted. If you want to move them up, fine, but change the cards to reflect accurate information so players can make informed decisions. Fourth issue: Cart paths. I don't know the history of this course, or the future of it. For all I know, they might be bulldozing this for more housing next year. But man, the cart paths are absolutely brutal. Shake your fillings right out. The more good: I asked the starter if they had a 2-some they could pair us with. He said no, but on the 2nd hole (par 3, lol), a couple of guys came up and were part of a 5-some which they broke into a 2 and 3, and we asked them if they'd like to join us, and they did. Really enjoyable couple of old dudes (in their early and late 70s) who could really play! That really made the long day enjoyable in the end. Conclusion: As you can see, the bad outweighs the good by a large margin. Oh yeah, they don't have a driving range to warm up, either. I'm sorry, but I wouldn't come back without a cheap group golfer, and even then, there are soooo many options within an hour of my house that I don't think I would come back here again anyway. Trim the trees, fix the paths, and space out your tee times by 1.5 minutes, and some of the layout issues can be forgiven.

This was absolutely the best municipal/public golf course experience I've ever had! We called for…read more a morning tee time on Fathers Day, and they said they had a cancellation at 8:47. When we arrived, the gentleman at the desk said he had made a mistake and thought we were calling for the next day. Even so, Jim, the starter, was super accommodating and said he could get us off the back 9 if we could hang around for 30 minutes while he got an outing out. Not only did he invite us to the chipping range, he kept us posted the entire time of where we were in the lineup. The course itself is beautiful. Long, wide and hilly. Incredibly well-maintained. The little clubhouse is vintage in the very best way, yet, there restrooms were updated and super clean. We came in and decided to have lunch on the patio and the chicken sandwich and patty melt we ordered were top notch. The entire staff was super kind and helpful- it was simply a great experience. Can't wait to come back; I think we just found our new favorite course.

Fun fact for the staff here, in 2025 than 8 million women and girls played golf on-course. That's…read morean all-time high since 2019. Women now represent 28% of all on-course golfers. That's not a niche market, that's meaningful buying power. Unsurprisingly, women also lead, participate in, and influence a significant portion of major household purchasing decisions. For example, thousands of dollars worth of clubs. In any sales environment, acknowledging every customer who walks through the door isn't just courteous, it's smart business. Unfortunately, during my visit, the lack of engagement felt noticeable. What could have resulted in two sales ultimately resulted in none. Beyond the missed revenue opportunity, the experience felt dismissive. I've been golfing for nearly a decade, have participated in multiple leagues and currently active in numerous female-focused golf groups. I value supporting businesses that actively support and welcome women in the game. Based on this experience, I don't recommend this company.`Not to any of my girlfriends or guy friends. Remember, it costs zero dollars to acknowledge women.
