Good course for beginner and kids

I played this course because I was playing with my teenage son who is just starting. It is a perfect course if you are starting are new to golf as the course is not challenging and the pace allows for someone to play slower.

Like golfing in a landfill

The whole course had trash and garbage scattered on it. The tee box was dirt with no grass seed on it and there was no distinction between rough and fairway. Greens were unputtable from jagged grass. Waste of money and worse golf course conditions I've ever seen.

Sort of OK for the Price

The best thing about this place is that no one is there, so it is easy to squeeze in a quick nine holes. The layout is actually pretty decent with some good holes and an easy walk despite some elevation changes.

The conditions are pretty bad though. The bunkers are just hard dirt and half the greens were covered in leaves (and I mean covered). There is no pro shop, so you just check in at the bar. They don’t have scorecards, and there is no signage of any kind on the course, so figuring out where to do can be a challenge.

For the $11 that I paid, it would be a good deal if they took any care at all to maintain the course. But they don’t....If I was rich, I would buy this place, clean it up and restore as much of the Tillinghast features as possible. It is really a shame to see what is happening here. My guess is that it is only a matter of time before this place shuts down.

BB’ s Review

Course was okay. Tee boxes were terrible. Quite a few leaves on it. Short walkable course.

Nice little 9

This is a half-decent Executive course for a quick 9. The layout is cool and had a few unique holes, but course is hard to navigate from hole to hole. Tee boxes could use some love, patchiness on the greens, but all in all I’m glad I got out and played here. I’d play again if someone asked.

First Time, and will be back.

Nice course with some really challenging holes (played front9) for a beginner. Tress, water, sand, doglegs...a little of everything.

Pitiful condition

Other than cutting the grass and collecting money...NOTHING is done to take care here. Tees are terrible and the greens continue to go downhill.

How much would it cost to put out tee markers...like they did in years gone by?

Sad

Thankfully - someone cuts the grass! But NO ONE does anything to respond to the course's obvious noted shortcomings...including something as simple as tee markers. Pitiful! It's only major plus is the location!

Surprisingly busy

This used to be a decently taken care of track. Now all they do is cut the grass. No tee markers, no new sand in the traps for years, weeds have been allowed to encroach in certain spots and the trees are never trimmed. Yet they seem to have more business than ever!
