The layout is…read morefun, fair, and gives you a little bit of everything: open holes you can let it rip on, tighter ones that force you to think, and some sneaky greens that can catch you off guard if you're not paying attention. Course conditions are usually very good, especially considering the price point. The fairways roll nicely, and the greens tend to be well-kept and quick without being unfair. Pace of play can vary depending on the day, but overall it's managed well. Only reason I'm holding back that last half star is the clubhouse and food scene could use a little boost -- nothing bad, just nothing to rave about either. That said, the staff is friendly, the value is great, and I always look forward to coming back. Definitely worth a tee time.

He'll take some pictures of your swing, show you how to align/swing better and encourage your progress. He knows how to observe, advise and communicate in ways that truly help. My game has improved markedly as a result - down from mid-90s to mid-80s and could not be happier with the results. BTW - regarding all the gripes below, don't pay any attention to them. The course has the fastest, most challenging greens of any public course in the area and most of the holes are fair for weekend golfers.

Course conditions were average at best -- definitely not what you'd expect at this price point. Fairways were patchy in spots, and the greens weren't in great shape either. For the money, there are much better-maintained courses with a more authentic golf experience. Won't be rushing back.

It's a great course for returning, recreational or beginner golfers or even probably someone who is better and just wants to relax. Some of the tee boxes and greens can be a struggle at times but it's a very busy course and keeping up with tee boxes and greens are the two biggest expenses for a small course like this I'm always happy to play here as it remind me of my home muni course back in CT where I grew up. Not quite as affordable but I took my daughter here for her first round ever last season and we've continued to enjoy ourselves! Keep it up!

5 hours ago November…read more29th, had 2 confirmed tee times at 6:45 and 8:54. Was told there would be a frost delay of roughly 2 hours 15mins. Fair enough, I understand its almost December, no issue with that. So basic math would tell you our tee times are now right around 9 and 11:10ish. We tee off right after 9 and play right at 2 hours. Again, basic math would tell you we are now roughly 15 minutes early for our 2nd tee time. When we check in with the 'clipboard' guy for our 2nd tee time, he tells us right away "its not looking good" but he goes in to check in with the clubhouse. We're a little confused as again, everything was delayed and moved down 2hrs 15 mins. Not too complicated. Clipboard guy comes back out and tells us "bad news, not looking like we can get you guys out. We're so backed up from the delay." At this point none of us know what to think as mathematically and the way time on this planet operates, we had two tee times 2hrs 11mins apart. Played our 1st nine in just at 2 hrs, so we are early for our 2nd 9. But now we are being told we can't play at all. While talking to the Clipboard guy, the Starter walks up to us and immediately gets defensive and repeats over and over there was a 2hr and 15min frost delay! And we reiterated we completely understood, but if everyone was pushed back, then our 2nd tee time, which we are early for, was also pushed back. Starter would not budge and one point just said "well I'm the Starter", which is not helpful at all clearly. Course is very mismanaged. Clearly a course that prefers their regulars to any other customer that shows up on time, plays quickly and has the audacity to expect to play both tee times they booked. With the amount of courses in the area, it's absurd that a 9 hole course that is a generous 'executive course' at best can't coordinate a frost delay, which is extremely common in New England. Curious if anyone from the course has thoughts, but I'm sure they're busy looking for groups in the parking lot after telling a foursome that was ready that they can't play

Holy cow, this course is a ripoff. It is absolutely insane that they charge what other nearby 9…read morehole courses charge. This course is in contention for the most poorly-maintained course in New England. The sand traps are covered in weeds (not contain weeds, I mean covered in weeds, see pictures). And every single green is not playable. Giant divots everywhere and large patches of grass missing (see pictures). They also have the grounds maintenance crew weed whacking around the bunkers during peak hours. They will run the equipment during your shot usually, sometimes they will idle the equipment and watch you take your shot then go back to weed whacking. It's pretty uncomfortable. There is a pinch point in the course between hole 5 and 6, and you could be waiting for several minutes (I've waited well over 10 minutes before) before it clears out enough for you to play. If a course is going to be in poor shape like this one, fine. But don't charge $30 to walk 9 holes when I can go to Chelmsford for the same price and have all the holes well-maintained. Literally the only upside of this course is that you can get a tee time on a moments notice. I highly recommend going elsewhere though and pay the same price for a course where the owners take pride in it and actually maintain it.

4 Stars UPDATE:…read moreThis review is of the POOL only. *Staff had misunderstood the pool rules. Kids accompanied by adults have access to the entire pool regardless of swimming ability. This makes things much more fun for all. Looking forward to the next several weeks in the sun! While the staff is kind and helpful the pool swim rules are far too strict for children accompanied by an adult. Children who cannot swim the length of the Olympic sized pool and back without touching the wall or the ground CANNOT leave the baby area to swim even when accompanied by an adult. This is ridiculous. Means adults have to stand and wade in the baby pool in order to play with their children in the water. Parents cannot hold infants in arms in the large section of the pool. Really?! So the baby/toddler area is unsafe and far too crowded on a hot day. If guards aren't confident they can manage the pool, they need a new summer gig. If it's crowded they need to have more staff. Now we know why the price is so low for a summer membership. Most kids can't leave the baby pool. BUYER BEWARE!
