East Hartford Golf Club

this place is in horrendous shape...period! i wouldnt dream of playing here again,its just not worth paying any money to play on a course this run down!

We finished in less than 4 hours. And you wont always need your driver on these holes

The greens were in good condition. Carts were brand new. Pace of play was good.
Yes, there are parts of the course in very rough shape, tee boxes need work, fairways need work; I can only imagine how bad things looked at the end of the 2013 season, but overall it is playable.
Would I be disappointed in conditions if I paid full price? Yes, but they have some great prices here and the course won't improve if they don't have any customers.

For $20 I played 18 with a cart. I think this is a good deal relative to the conditions and difficulty of play. With that said, course play was slow for a course that is not that tough to play.

It was a beautiful day out. Pace of play was very fast. Got done with the round of 18 in under 4 hours. There are literally sand traps EVERYWHERE around the green and in some fairways. The fairways are in alright condition. Can't really complain about the course though. Very good for players who hit the ball straight. Only one or two dog legs.

I played this course and couldn't believe how bad of condition it was in. The were random hills and holes all over the course. Numerous times you thought you were going to Buck out of through golf cart because you hit a crater going slowly. There were brown spots and burnt grass everywhere. This course looked very undermaintained if maintained at all. Very poor course will never play here again!

Pros: Pace of play was fantastic. Anytime a round is under 4 hours despite a foursome in front of you, that's a great speed. The staff were also very friendly and welcoming.

Cons: The condition of the course is flat-out bad. Diseased fairways and greens, uneven tee boxes, lots of weeds in the rough. Very overpriced for the condition of the course.

I understand that Billy Casper golf has taken over after the disaster that was MDM, and that is a cause for optimism in the years to come, but there's still a LONG way to go. I'm going to wait a few years before I consider returning. They do great work up at Wintonbury, so I will eventually give this course another chance someday when they get to improve it to their standards. Until then, I'd stay away.

It went down hill for a few years and now that billy has a hand on it, it can only get better. Course is getting better and better everyday.

I played at 6:30 am with my brother. We were the first ones out on the course. Great conditions, just a few low areas that were a little wet, otherwise it was perfect out. Not the greatest course out there but definitely worth the money.

This can be a challenging little course. Hope they keep making the improvements they say they will. I would have no problem returning to play.

Average.

Too pricey for venue.

Very wet.

Very nice people.

Well run.

An 80 mins. From my home.

If in area I would replay, at lesser price.

I was looking for a course to play that was close to work and picked this one. I read the reviews that were awful and did a google search and found that they are under new management since October of 2013. I had a great conversation with the pro shop guy. If this course used to be as bad as people said it was then the difference now must be night and day. Conditions I think were pretty good for the winter we've had and all the rain. You can tell they are working hard to get this place in top condition. There were very few people on the course which was nice. I played eighteen in about two hours and forty five minutes. Only thing I would like to see if some special discounts on golf now. Usually you can find a couple here and there for $25 (18 & cart) but all of the deals for this course were for $40. If they want to build up the brand maybe offer some more discount tee times but even for $40 it's a good deal. Will definitely go back and can't wait to see what it looks like by the end of the season

Course needs some time to get back to the way it was many years ago. Keep moving forward would be the most important message to owners and staff.

Went to the desk to check in and the gentleman working said that we would have to call golf now and cancel the tee time because they did not have enough carts and we would not finish in time for there golf league. After a couple minutes of talking he let us take the cart out and said we only had three hours to use the cart. After a few holes the cart ran out of gas and had to push it back to the club house and take another cart.. Very unsatisfied with the course conditions and lack of service at the course. I will not return to long hill golf course.

We quit after 12 holes. Grass was not mowed off the fairway or around the greens. Prepare to lose balls. Greens were bare and bumpy. Even at $20 w/cart this is a waste of time and money.

No apparent maintenance. Greens in rough shape, tees worn out, bare spots in fairways, poor drainage in areas, etc

course needs work, severely neglected, ruff 6-8" spent an hour searching for balls

course is not worth more than golfnow fee 6$.horrible conditions.might as well play in my backyard

Terrible tee boxes, greens, fairways, bunkers, all weeds or dead grass. Will not go back.

I played it a few times in the spring and it was ok. You could see the course conditions deteriorate over the past few years, but this year it's pretty bad.
