Nice golf course, but kept getting near miss balls frequently

Very nice and challenging course, good conditions, and friendly staff. Perhaps coincidence but our foursome kept getting near miss flying balls. I will definitely go back to play.

Communication needs work

I didn’t play today. It was raining all yesterday and still this morning, but I couldn’t get anyone on the phone the day before or in the morning. I also sent a message via Instagram. So I drove to the course to make sure I didn’t “lose” my $105. Arrived at 6:30 and the place was dark.

With social media it would take 2 minutes to craft a post to address this. “In anticipation of the storm, the course will be closed until 11 AM Monday. All morning tee times will be canceled and refunded”

I do look forward to playing this course

Good time at Melrose

Haven’t played Melrose for at least 5 years. The new owners have done a great job improving the course conditions. Will definitely play here again!

Fun track

I use to drive by this course often 12-15 years ago and finally had my opportunity to play JC Melrose today. Thank you Golfnow for a hot deal during the week that I couldn’t pass up.

6000 from the tips according to the card. That’s where I like to play, but decided to tee it forward to the whites posted a a little over 5700. It is unfortunate a lot of the tees were forward and shorter then posted. I’ll definitely play tips next time.

Overall 75-80%. Couple tee boxes and some fairways have issues, not much. The greens seemed to be slower then expected for a 90 degree day, but they are in solid condition. Most bunkers were maintained with nice sand, most. A lot of elevation changes, undulating fairways and greens throughout Melrose. Hole 3 and 4 are both about 140yard par 3s. The 4th hits over the entrance road to the course. 8 th hole par 3, 200 yards.A tree is starting to work it’s way into the front of the green. Only 1 par 3 in the back. 17. 185 on the card, played at 160 today.

Even tho the course was shorter then expected, I enjoyed playing and will be bringing my weekend 4some to play before the end of the season. Thanks again Golfnow for giving me the chance to play new course for me in my area.

Awesome deal

You have to play this course. The value can’t be beat especially with a burger, chips, and beer included in the fee. The hot dogs are awesome and the people are very friendly. The course was in fantastic shape when we played, but the greens were quick and tricky. This course isn’t tough off the tee but the greens and pin placements definitely challenged our iron play and putting.

This course is on our regular play list!

Great time

Hidden gem!!The course was is good shape. The greens were nice and fast. A couple of tee boxes needed some work. Bill in the club house was great. He told me about the history of the course and gave me some helpful hints to score better. I will definitely be back to this great course.

Need to use some turf care products

I work in the turf care industry. This course was in good condition, but it was seriously suffering from multiple diseases in the fairways, crabgrass in the roughs, and some spots of moss on a few greens. There are good products available that will clear this right up.

This is a shorter course but still challenging if you are directionally challenged. If you haven't played it in a while, try it again.
