Need a quick 9 holes

This course was easy play. And the round of nine holes went very quickly. There was no writing on the food and beverage as I did not purchase any. The staff was very friendly and polite. Just a great round of golf

Greens rolled true

I was able to 1 putt 6 of 9 greens. Something that I would like to do more often. I was very happy with the staff. Friendly and courteous. The girl came and took my cart back without asking. I turned around and there she was with a big smile and wished me a good rest of the day.

Not too bad

The course is in good condition. The pace of play was alright. My only complaints would be that there's no beverage cart and one night when I played there after work I was done with my round a little after 8 and I went to the clubhouse to grab a bite to eat and have a beer but they were already closed. They're losing out on business there.

Nice first impression

I've always seen the Golfnow deals on this course and I've driven by the course a number of times but I have never played it. Seemed too short for my tastes, but I finally decided to give it try with my regular playing partner. I was impressed with the pace of play - 1 hour 45 minutes and the overall condition of the course. Greens were especially in nice condition. Short par 4's and par 5's, but a challenging enough layout to make you think about the right club to use off the tee on these holes to stay out of trouble. I liked the variety in the length and design of the 3 par 3's. Great value for the price and a nice golf course.

Fun Nine Holer

We always have a great time playing Minnechaug. The staff are friendly, the course is in good shape and it usually plays pretty fast. On our recent play the greens were medium fast and rollling nice. The course layout is decent and finishes with two interesting par 3's, one being a true island green that plays about 115 from the whites. It's a fun course to play and worth a try.

Great course

I have only been playing golf now going on my 3rd year and I have played in Myrtle Beach on about 5 courses and 4 in CT & I want to say that playing 9 holes here has been as good as some of those others that I played. Just learn but I would recommend to everyone to play here as it is challenging and a beautiful course
.I will playing here again soon

Can't miss

Staff is friendly, they allow me to take my 2 year old on the course which is awesome as it allows my son to get involved in the game and allows me to play. Greens are very good, fairways need a little love but very playable.

Minnechaug in April

Given the rain of the day before, melting snow and general rough winter, we weren't expecting mcuh...we were pleasantly surprised. Course was in good condition, very little muck/mud, and the fairways were in far better shape than they had a right to be given the recent weather. The club pro and his staff were exceptionally friendly and courteaous, and we wil be back.

Best Value and condtions Just a fun round !!

Great to see the course is really getting attention, Despite the drought greens are green, fairways are in great shape...there is some hardpan but where it is located you shouldn't be there anyway. Greens putt true to what you read
The staff is very friendly the food is great ...try the pizza.
Condition gets better ever nine I play.

Not my first time

Minnechaug is a great course to hit up after work. You can play at a pretty decent pace and the course is pretty darn fun to play. Unfortunately for the course it's been very dry recently so everything was dry and fast. The greens were hard and fast so sticking to them meant having a shot dropping in from way up. Hopefully they get some rain soon and it softens everything up.

Fun course with great staff!

Nice course situated on Glastonbury/Manchester border. Courteous staff run a nicely set up course. Greens and fairways are in decent condition. Paired up with reasonable prices (especially with discounts), makes for a pleasurable 9 hole round of golf.
