The Hollows Golf Club - Cottage/Road
Rating Snapshot
About
Located in Montpelier, Hollows Golf Club has a 27-hole layout that is considered one of the best values in the area. The holes are divided into three nines that provide three different 18-hole combinations. The Cottage, Lake, and Road nines come with enough variety to offer something for players of all skill levels from low handicappers to more experienced players. The green fees are applicable the whole day, which allows golfers to play all three courses if they have the time and the inclination. The Cottage/Road combination only has water on one hole, but it is a memorable one. The hole is Cottage's par 3 third, which is the golf course's signature. There is not only a formidable pond along the right but also an 8-foot bunker on the left. In addition to the golf courses, the Hollows also has an all-grass driving range and putting green.

Nice layout, tough fairway, need more grass
Even it rained the night before, the fairway is tough, compounded by less of grass, it is difficult to play unless you are used to sweeping balls all the time.

5 stars
Nice relaxed atmosphere. Fairways where nice, greens excellent , fringe around greens excellent. Great old course. Would definitely play again.Richard Baxter
Some holes are....
Decent course--27 holes, so you'll get some variety whenever you play. Course layout isn't bad-- but some holes are very easy and some are overly challenging for a senior-- few 'in between' . Price is appropriate so far.
Good Value
The Hollows provides a great layout at a great price.
Fairway and rough Conditions improve with the weather and in Summer the greens are well above average. It can be slow pace but enjoy the outdoors and take a deep breath. Great value

Thank you for playing The Hollows Golf Club - Lake/Cottage, and we hope to see you again soon.
No Marshall help available on course…
There was a threesome in front of us obviously impaired and each playing 2-3 balls per/person on most holes. We tried multiple times to call the pro shop but got no answer.
It took nearly 2 hrs 45 min to play 9 holes behind these idiots.
Typically most players here are courteous, and demonstrate good golf etiquette… but when there’s a problem group on the course… there needs to be some recourse available from the course management.
Great course for price
$45 on a Saturday. Carts have ball and club washer. Course layout is a tad confusing at times, drove past the tee boxes on a couple holes. No cart service. But overall a great course.
Tee Time process
When I called the pro shop to register for a TT no one was available. I my call rolled in to a National call center that then took my TT. I had to change the TT on two occasions trying to coordinate with my playing partners. I was told my cancellations went through okay but found out a few days later I was charged for a TT I cancelled. I spoke with Alfonso in the pro shop and he said he would look into the charge and get back with me. HE NEVER DID.
We appreciate you taking the time to review the course and rate us. We are going to pass on your feedback to the team. Thanks for visiting The Hollows Golf Club - Lake/Cottage, and we hope to see you again in the future.
Good moderate difficulty course
Good pace of play. Easy to keep track of your golf ball.
Great course
3 9 hole courses offers something for every golfer! Staff is very friendly as the course is well maintained! Still challenging yet unobtrusive! Enjoyed it so much actually got a membership!
Cheap, easy course to play
The Hollows is a cheap course that allows you to play at your convenience. (No dress code) However, with such lax course rules and low price it brings in players with very poor etiquette. When busy, the pace of play is almost unplayable. You wait so long you forget how to play golf by the time its your turn. The course is generally in good condition for what it is, but the course is rather hard to play as the ground is extremely hard.
Thank you for reviewing the course. We would like to apologize for your recent experience.
We're sorry to hear you were less than satisfied during your round. We pride ourselves on our providing great service and the high-quality standards we maintain.
We would like to make things right. Please reach out to our management team at the pro shop.
We hope to hear from you soon.
