The Abington Club

I only got to play four holes before I got rained out v

Short par 9 but has some fun holes. A few short par 3s that are either “on the green” or “a lost ball”. Owners need to put more money in to the course or sell it to someone who will.

Still it is a fun local course that is worth the visit.

Hands down the worst experience I have ever had golfing. I was charged too much for the round and the woman argued with me until she realized she made a mistake. Then there wasn’t enough carts so she said we would have to wait “about ten minutes” for a cart. After 45 minutes Of waiting for a cart we got our money back and went somewhere else. There was trash all over the parking lot. I tried to call yesterday and all you get is an answering machine. We tried to book this course a few weeks ago. Both myself and my friend called and left voicemails for them to call us back to book a tee time and we never heard back. What a waste of. time and the “convenience” fee I was charged. Nothing but an inconvenience. Never again will I golf there or use golf now to book a tee time.

This is the kind of course you should play when you’re just trying to get some swings in... the greens are unplayable, putting on them is essentially a waste of time. There are no tee box markers or any clear directions between holes when you’re walking. The fairway is more like a light rough, and the rough is pretty unplayable. All that said, it’s cheap and has a few interesting Par 3’s so, use it as a warmup for a weekend outing.

Overall: Eh, would be more fun to play while drinking with friends.

Course layout was a little confusing, especially finding tee #1 and tee #3. Otherwise was okay.

Course was not in good shape at all. Tee boxes were either bare or not mowed. There was no denotion of white, red, black, etc. No distance signs/posts.

Greens had grass covering maybe 75-80% of the surface, which made reading a putt pretty much impossible.

Also this is a cheap course, so you should expect lots of divots on fairways and greens.

Decent price for quality, but probably shouldn't charge more than $10 for this place. However, good option for beginners or a super quick 9.

For the money this is a terrific club to learn to play. Nine holes with several blind approaches. This course could be so much more if the owners only put some money back in to it. Half of the greens are a complete mess and the cart paths are a road hazard is spots.

Still, this is course we will play again for the value and to support a local club.

Holes are challenging. Having a cart would be good because there are a lot of hills. However, the cart fee is too high. The course is generally in poor shape. Tee boxes are not marked and are in very poor condition. There are no directions or maps to help navigate the course. Be prepared to lose a few balls.

There was trash everywhere. I don’t think they own a lawn mower.

Are there things about this course that could be improved? Yes.

Would it be fair to complain for $15, and an under-ten-minute drive? Not at all.

However... I'll delve.

There were no tee markers, and the tee boxes were in poor upkeep.

The fairways, while cut, were course grass. The roughs were... Well, I lost 3 balls just off the fairway.

Some of the greens we're in good condition. Some seemed to have been slowly healing from aeration long ago.

The bunkers should all probably be marked GUR.

All that said, it was a fun layout for an executive 9. And moderately challenging at times with how some of the trees forced your club selection and/or ball flight.

I would, and will definitely play here again.

For $15.

A nice meandering course.. Good value for the money spent. fairways were not well defined and greens were in need of some care. A couple of holes were in bad condition. I would go back and would refer a friend. Some signage to the next tee for firstime players would be beneficial.

9 hole challenging course, not in great shape but it was fun. For the price, it was worth it!!!
