Just Awful

$90 with fees and taxes is insane for this goat track. We left after 5 hours and only 14 holes completed. What a disappointment. Should have foreseen what was coming when we asked what the pin position was for the day and the starter’s response was, “not sure, just got here”. No rangers to move play along, every hole on the front has groups screaming “fore” as the holes are literally on top of each other. No wonder this didn’t work as a country club, as who in their right mind would pay for this layout. I’d never play golf again before going back to this disaster of a course. It was like lighting $180 on fire. Ugh.

Great course

I had a nice experience when I played. They had an outing that morning but honored my teatime I booked online and let me out ahead of the groups.

Very nice staff and the clubhouse looks amazing. I plan on playing there again when I travel back to Connecticut.

From a course that I never wanted to go back to, to a course that I’m willing to drive an hour and a half to play.

Played here on a whim to meet some friends from Connecticut, haven’t played since prior to the remodeling, and was totally turned off by unfriendly and negative staff previously…

BUT I JUST WANNA SAY THAT THEY HAVE HANDS DOWN THE NICEST STAFF SINCE POST REMODELING, this course is a gem I’LL SAY IT AGAIN. THE STAFF IS ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL.!!!!! They hustle and bust them even short staffed right now as people go back to school, I guess, but everyone from the guy that was checking in and also acting as a starter, to the girl behind the bar, that was also running orders out on the golf course, the staff make this place a hitting gym. They did a great job remodeling. But the staff absolutely makes this place.!!! Tip your bartender as well. Say please and thank you you and you will not have a bad round here.

Poor course management

The cart paths were pretty bad too . I might come back but definitely not for a while.

Everything was great until....

We got to the turn and discovered they let groups off the back who we, as 18 hole ticket holders, had to wait behind. Completely unacceptable. Other than that, the course is mostly in great shape. Greens and tee boxes are excellent. Fairways sitting up nicely, rough was not overwhelming. If they can overcome their greed and not send groups off the back while I make the turn, I wpuld definitely go back
