Great course
Great course on a hot deal to play on. No complaints at all. Definitely will play here soon
Teebox maintenance
Staff was very friendly. Most of course was in OK shape. Teeboxes were almost completely devoid of grass. It was like teeing it up from a bunker.
Could've been better
Course layout was awesome and a fun course to play. Green conditions weren't so good. You putt and watch your ball bumping when rolling due to patches of grass. Rangers are out all day but didnt regulate any of the delays on the course. Could be from not spacing tee times but its still a fun course by the water. Good for its price
Disappointed
Most greens were aerated, some with sand still on them. Shaggy roughs and bare spots in fairways. Course layout was ok, but really needs a lot of work . Cart we're the best part of the course, plush seats. We won't be back. : (
Don’t do it
Course was in very rough shape.
No starters, burnt up, on pace for a 6 hour round before we walked off at 15
90$!!?? Would consider going back for 20
$90 is robbery
The greens are destroyed. Not puttable not at all acceptable at any price but definitely not at $90. Tee boxes need major help. They have started a bunch of projects but not finished. Robot cutters I guess is the future but the course looks like they given up on it. The prices is absurd there are plenty other courses around more reasonable priced and way better maintained
Over priced & Bad course conditions!
It's been probably 20 years since I've played this course, and now I remember why! I will NOT return, nor can I recommend playing there.
First, the price. $100 for greens fees with cart, for a Friday. Ridiculous and not justified! Likely were gouging with it being day before holiday.
Second, starting everyone that day on the 10th tee. A reason for which no one there had the answer to. They said something about making the fturn and being able to get food at the grill, none of that was up and running that early anyway. Not good. Many groups were not happy about that either. We had a 0614 tee time and did not tee off till 0635. How in the world can you be that far off that early in the day? One reason is, no starter initially. That's no way to manage timely tee times and keeping pace.
Third,, the course conditions were really bad. In particular, the tee boxes and greens! Many of the tee boxes had no grass at all. Standing in dirt trying to find a place to tee it up. Horrible!!!! The greens, many of which have disease all over them, are burnt, etc, which is just uncalled for. This can't just be blamed on a most recent heat wave as these problems have clearly existed for some time.
Lastly, the course clearly has spent a fortune on their new golf carts, GPS, etc. Computer screens, and carts that will completely stop moving on their own if you happen to stray slightly off their "path". Speeds changing randomly on their own, etc. Very frustrating!! And unnecessary!! It's not that great a course that needs this kind of technology. Also, the little robotic lawn mowers all over the place are not that great either. The little things get in the way, do a crappy job, and are also not needed. Even to the point where you can see how their destroying the edges of the greens because they can't do as good a job as a human being. Put some grounds crews back to work and fix that!
But now we know why it costs so much to play there. We're all paying for these unnecessary things. Instead, the owners should be spending that money on tee boxes and greens! And get rid of some of that unnecessary stuff.
Again, NOT worth what they're charging, and conditions are not good!!
Waste of time and momey
Just a horribly kept golf course. Had probably the best design and most potential but is ruined by pisss poor conditions. Zero pride in the upkeep.
Great day at Winnapaug
The staff at the pro shop were very friendly. The pace of play was great. Each hole is very unique. No two holes play the same. The giant boulder on 18 was an added bonus. The greens rolled true and anything green played nicely. You paid a price if you were wayward off the tee. Beautiful course.
A good course
It was a very slow round as the pace of play was off. The course was in good condition though 10-13 were a bit rough. Portia-potties were very bad. Views were good and staff was super pleasant.
Ordeal
This is my take on Winnapaug Golf Course. To call that place a dump is an insult to dumps throughout this country. It’s more like an open septic pit on a hot muggy summer day just after rain. If you’re lucky enough to stay in the fairway with your tee shot, it may take some time to find grass. Don’t worry about bringing a divot tool. There’s no way to leave a mark on these greens. If the course had given us a free foursome and asked us to just pay for carts, we would still been ripped off. I don’t care what level of golfer you are, do yourself a favor and not play it. Other than that it was ok.
