Taconic Golf Club - Clubhouse and practice green

One of the most beautiful public golf courses (voted number 1 or 2 in New England every year),…read moreTaconic offers tournament quality golf to anyone. The course is beautiful, with a manageable front and long back 9 (6500 yrs) from the middle tees. The course is open and even high handicap golfers will not lose many balls; there are really only a few spots on the course that are truly out of bounds. The staff is typically very friendly, Jeremy who manages the bag room is particularly nice. The pros are all great too. The whole place is well maintained, as they do host PGA (junior/womens) events from time to time. The greens play very fast towards the end of summer, and some of them slope in ways that will really frustrate anyone. Price-wise, the place is on the upper end if you have no college affiliation (about 140 or so) but is exceptionally cheap for students (35 dollars) so definitely a place to visit if you are in the area and still in school. The course truly cannot be recommended enough, and it offers some exceptional views of both the Williams College campus and the surrounding areas.

I played Taconic again after many years. I rarely play courses this expensive. This one is worth…read moreevery penny. The course is beautiful, challenging, and superbly maintained. You could play it the rest of your life and never tire of it. The club is so extremely welcoming. They make you feel like a member. The locker room, the grill, the patio are all wonderful. The only thing better than a visit would be to be e member. It is, bar none, my favorite place to play golf.

Some courses look amazing on websites, but then disappoint in real life. This one looks incredible…read moreon the website... then lives up to it in real life, and then some. I make sure to go out at least once a year to play 36 holes. So I have probably played over 200 courses in my lifetime, and this is my favorite of them all. A true player's course, full of subtleties that can only be appreciated by good golfers. Every single hole is unique, there's not one single throwaway hole out of the 18. Every par 3 is an absolute gem, and it has 4 of the most interesting par 5's you've ever seen. This is not meant to shortchange the par 4's, which are also all very different and challenging. As beautiful as this course is, the greens are where the men are separated from the boys at the Crump. And if you're not in the correct section of the green with your approach, good luck 2-putting. It's as true a test of golfing ability as you'll find in New England. If you can break 80 here, you can probably shoot even par anywhere else. And for such a spectacular course, the people that work there are incredibly friendly and low-key. I've been to countless courses in New England (e.g. Wachusett and Shaker Hills) that can't hold a candle to Crump, where the uppity staff acts as if they're running Augusta. You get none of that arrogance here. The staff is as charming as the course. There is really only one thing I would add to improve the experience. GPS carts. There are several partially blind shots where it would really help out, especially regarding approach shots to elevated greens. The greens all have their own unique shape and if you don't know them, it's near impossible to know where to put the ball on the approach. So if you want to see a course you'll never forget, take the drive out to Bernardston and check it out. If you don't instantly fall in love with this course (especially in the fall where the foliage is simply phenomenal), you should find another sport. Lastly, a few words of warning... 1. Don't try to walk this course in the summer heat. I did it once, but will never do it again. Take a cart. 2. This course is geared towards very good golfers. I'd say if you're above a 15 handicap, do not torture yourself trying to play this course.

From the moment I drove in there was a sense it would be a good day. The place was immaculate. The…read morecarts electric and quiet, auto brake. The starter was incredible. Easy going and sent us out early just because he could. The course is challenging. 1st time awareness will lead to 2nd time mastery (I hope). From the tee boxes to the greens this was a PGA like course experience for much less. Blues were fun maybe the tips next time.
