Poorly taken care of

Can’t tell if I’m putting on a green or a bunker. If they actually put the time and effort to make this course playable then the layout would be really fun to play.

Dorchester

Greens are very rough, as are the tee boxes. Staff doesn’t monitor tee times (a group had a tee time 20 minutes after us and staff let them go first, pushing our tee time back by about 15 minutes). No beverage cart came the entire round. Very compact layout so expect to be on other holes fairways and expect other golfers on yours.

Disappointed

Have played this course many times over the past 30 years. First as a 9 hole then 18 and now a 12. The course is in terrible condition. At least 4 greens are not puttable. Some are new but even some of the old holes are in terrible shape. Fairways are pretty rough. Sand traps are big holes in the ground. Looks like they’re putting money into the clubhouse but not the course. We will not be back this year.

Great course!

A fun course for learning, however 1 group that was learning caused a massive backup and were not letting people play through. We had to skip a hole because they were taking 30 minutes per hike doing instructions. After we passed them the day was enjoyable. I’m not so sure tee times and course play speed is enforced so beware of your time if you play here

Good time

Had a great day with my two sons. We are not avid golfer so this course met our needs. Good price for cart and golf. Course conditions are not great but now poor either. Had a good day.

Save your Money

This course is not for golfers. It;s for golf beginners, and even then, there's better choices. This is little more than a field with 12 pins spread around a field. It's hard to distinguish between the fairways and the greens, Strange layout with balls flying in all different directions. . On a positive note, it does have a nice clubhouse and friendly staff. It's hard to believe that anyone actually wrote a good review about this course. Hopefully my honest review will save you a few bucks. If you know how to play the game and want to enjoy a round of golf, go elsewhere.
