About
The Ledges Golf Club in South Hadley is tucked away in the Pioneer Valley, an area of western Massachusetts known for its lush, rolling hills. It is a favorite amongst locals since it is one of the best values in the region. The course enjoys scenic views that stretch to Mt. Tom and the Holyoke Range. It is on the shorter side at just over 6,500 yards from the back tees, but the dramatic changes in elevation make it seem much longer. Most of the greens are raised with steeply sloped sides, making accuracy essential since missing them by even just a few feet will result in a serious penalty. The golf course has a heavily wooded front nine that seamlessly transitions into a more open back nine featuring links-style holes. The Ledges is a shotmaker's course that offers several interesting risk-reward opportunities.

Ledges Number Four, Par 4, 276. The fairway is narrow, with precious little bail-out to its right. A driveable hole for the bold. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 06/22/2022

# Nine, Par 5, 528. These bunkers will snare many an approach shot that is sliced or pushed. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 06/22/2022

The 10th is a classic downhill par-5 of 564; it’s a three-shotter for all but very long, straight hitters. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 06/22/2022

The massive bunker that sides green eleven could be a nightmare for those who aren’t all that handy with a sand wedge. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 06/22/2022

Eighteen (from the left rough): Great finisher where you’ll want to avoid every one of the seven fairway bunkers, including these three. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 06/22/2022

The final hole as seen from its right rough. Getting up and down around this green is no simple task. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 06/22/2022

Always the best
My favorite course and I belong to two clubs one being a fancy private club. You can always expect great conditions and the holes are all unique and super fun. This can be a short course if you move up a tee or two so expect to hit alot of wedges and irons, that is another reason I love it, really gives you a through the whole bag experience. Payed $40 for 18 and a cart, my sushi in Amherst post round cost $90 so you do the math, just a steal. Not a big bar or food scene there post round so do yourself a favor and go next town over to Amherst and make an absolute day of it. Love you Ledges!
NICE
Everyone was friendly. Great pace of play do to a wonderful starter! It was wet because it had rained the day before. (Cart path only) But I was paired with some wonderful men and it was throughly enjoyable.I will be back soon.
Great Course
This is the 3rd time playing there this tear. It’s a great course . Its in fantastic shape. I always enjoy playing there. I’ll be back
Shaggy greens and poorly cut
I have/do played/play here on the regular over the last 15 yrs. The greens on Sunday were shaggy and when they were cut, it was done so poorly that the cut lines were affecting the ball path on putts (almost as if they’d been aerated, but it was mowing lines). Also consistently more expensive than other local options with not much reason to be.
Good condition as usual
Course was in exceptional shape as it was when I played 3 weeks ago. Pro shop was courteous and friendly and starter was as well. Played in a little over 4 hours which wasn't bad considering course was busy. Fairways were pristine but wish greens had a little more pace to them. Look forward to returning.
The Ledges is GREAT
Play it you will like the course, great mix of holes , great for playing a match against friends, Greens are getting better, have been bumpy all year from aeration and slow to fill in. Some days play can be a little slow but that’s all muni’s. All in all a great and fun golf course IF you play the right tees, definitely worth playing
Great course
Only 4 stars this time, but blame all the rain we've been having. Most holes were cart path only. Makes for a longer than normal round.. Will be going back.
A nice course
The greens were well maintained, not particularly fast. A decent challenge, and worth putting on your list to play when you’re in Western Mass.
Slow slow play
The pace of play was ridiculously slow, often leaving you waiting in between shots close to 10 minutes. There should be a starter or someone keeping the pace. Worst experience I’ve ever had on a golf course and I will not be returning
