The fourth is a narrow driving hole that ends on this well-guarded green. Only 310 yards, this is the #5 index. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 05/24/2025
-
7th, par-4, 331: A typical Tillinghast green is of moderate size–like this one. A moderately difficult hole, but a good one. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 05/24/2025
-
The eighth is a par-4 of average difficulty, but missed shots still lead to trouble. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 05/24/2025
-
Ten, the #1 index, plays uphill over its 409 yards to a relatively small green. The large falloff behind this green can bring about short-game woes. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 05/24/2025
-
11th, par-4, 402: On this layout, Tillinghast’s holes retain their genuine parkland character, along with a classic aura not far afield from his famous courses. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 05/24/2025
-
The sixteenth: Ron Cultip set this excellent par-5 in an open area, making this 498-yarder a tempting opportunity for big hitters. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 05/24/2025
-
2nd: Par-4, 393. First of three holes on the difficult “Cat’s Claw.” The green can’t be seen from the fairway’s landing zone. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 08/08/2021
-
3rd, par-4: Another tricky Tillinghast hole. The Cape design features this marshy hazard curving all the way from tee to green. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 08/08/2021
-
5th, par-5. The driving zone is relatively open, but your second may cross the stream and must be precise. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 08/08/2021
-
16, par-5, 498. Terrific hole that encourages you to slam a driver and another long club on the second. Hittable in two, for some. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 08/08/2021
-
18, par-5, 570. On the second shot, the fairway’s safe side is the right, which better opens up the green. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 08/08/2021
-
Another view of 18. As classic as the Tillinghast holes on the front side. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 08/08/2021

New Tees Coming In Great! Photo submitted by Golfguyswf on 08/15/2018
Enjoy playing here. Greens were in great shape. Only issue was on the 10th tee box. A foursome decided to cut the line in front of the group that was in front of us. We didn’t know where they came from. This was in full view of the pro shop, which faces the 10th tee. I made the pro shop employee aware of this. While nice enough, he just shrugged and said he didn’t see or know anything about it. He made it clear he wasn’t going to confront them. This wasn’t the first time I’ve seen this here. I think groups occasionally stop for lunch or drinks at 5he turn, then just jump back in when they feel like it. Pro shop doesn’t monitor or address this. They need to take into account the needs of the groups who don’t stop .
Love this course
I’ve come to enjoy & like playing this course.
Has its challenges yet also offers opportunities to recover too
Great course for all levels of golfers.
Love the course and we got a great deal. Was a little wet in places but we have had a lot of rain and it was early in the morning. Will definitely be playing again.
Good course
Had a great time at this course. The holes are fairly straight and if you can stay on or near fairway you will be fine. Once you go into the woods don't bother looking for your ball, lots of vegetation and overgrowth. The tree lines between holes are well kept and the green were in really good shape. I don't have any negatives about the course; we were able to finish 18 in about 4 hours. We had a great time, and I would definitely be back.
Not as expected or advertised- 75 pp
Not as advertised- no wonder they were the ONLY course in 50 miles not completely booked in am on hottest day of year July 4th no less
Pros- GPS on carts, friendly, picturesque
Sumulator to warm up (1), cart girl driving around selling cocktails- working hard
Cons- 2 total ball wash stations on course, no club wash on cart, No driving range or practice putting green, carts closed off from car area to retrieve / drop bags, course very dry and ALOT of areas of hard pack dirt near or in faiways, hottest day of year- no courtesy water on course- cooler, bottles, ice water- nothing, cart girl did her best, Simulator can only handle one person warming up or swinging at a time- building/ garage was just as hot as outside- no ac,
Limited staff- seems like built for more but not getting the business- bar closed, maintenance guys seemed like they were cutting our holes every time while we were teeing off- stopped waiting for them and decided to play through them, bit annoying.
FAR BETTER courses for the money 75 PP
More like a $50 PP Course IMO
Nice Course
I enjoy playing this course. Tee boxes, fairways and green in very good condition.
Will play here again.
Our Favorite Regional Course
Even though we played on a holiday, and every cart was out, we only had to wait less than 20 minutes to get on the course. There was a grill fired up on hole 10 when you come in, perfect for a protein fuel-up before heading back out. The upgraded carts made it easy to see all the other players around us and time our play. We look forward to becoming members in the future.
Bunkers need some sand
Some of the bunkers had almost no sand in them at all and you couldn't play out of them. Also a lot of dead spots around the greens when chipping. Tee boxes could use some love too. Little early in the season for that much wear.
Otherwise fairways and greens were in great shape.
Excellent course
Excellent course. Fairways were tight and the greens were in excellent condition. Will definitely play again.
Very good course and staff!
First time playing and it was a great time! Excellent price for the weekend and carts were new and super cool. Highly recommend this course!
Hidden Gem!
Hidden gem for sure.
History to it, and it’s a 1915 design by A.W. Tillinghast.
Very good shape, and the views are gorgeous.
Snag that $32.00 hot deal during the week.
If you’re playing in the morning, go to Ben’s Fresh up the street for lunch after your round. Get the burger, it’s a must!

Take the drive up!
