The staff is incredibly welcoming - course is a bit tough

Course needs some

Maintenance. Lots of blind spots tough for first time player. I would give this course a year to get in better shape. Greens are super fast and no breaks anywhere. Love the promontory to tee off from. Great and welcoming staff.

What a change!

Haven’t been to this course in many, many years as used to play it regularly on a league. Was shocked at the VUE! So many trees had been taken down, incredible views of new haven, east rock etc. The layout has been reworked yet some holes remain the same. Had to go off back 9 due to a shotgun tournament on the front. Looking forward to going again to check out the front. It’s still a work in progress course but their future is very promising.

Needs more work.

Bunkers and cart paths need improvement. Every hole needs to be tamped down more after plugging a new hole.

Nice course

Course was in good condition. Weather was around 100 degrees, a few jugs of cold drinking water around the course would have been nice.

The Vue Is Getting There... But Isn't There Yet

We went to The Vue again since we were able to get a Golf Now Hot Deal, which made this course affordable. Otherwise, they're still charging too much for where the remodel project is. Staff is always amazing here... from the Pro Shop to the Food/Drink Staff! They will deliver drinks directly to you on the course, which is great. But there is absolutely NO water jugs on the course, which is totally unacceptable. Significant improvements have been made to the tee boxes, fairways and greens. The new carts are great however, the cart paths and non-primary areas are still a mess. I'm sure they'll get there and it'll be beautiful. It just isn't there yet.

The Cast from Entourage opens a LIV Golf course

What is this place? It immediately gave LIV and Entourage vibes. The guy working the pro shop, Vinny Chase, couldn't have cared less that I was there to check in, he was too busy talking to other workers. The "new" renovated building is a modern eye soar with hallways and bathrooms that look like they haven't been touched since the 70's.

It's basically a golf course surrounded by a constructions site...I'm not a golf snob, but a little bit of maintenance and landscaping goes a long way.

I went off as a single, and it was slow. I was behind two three or foursomes and another single. At the 11th tee box, a ranger appeared for the first time all round and told me that they couldn't have singles playing because of how backed up they were and the complaints about how slow it was. He told me I'd have to play with the threesome of younger guys behind me- they were nice guys, but played at a significantly lower level than me and without basic golf etiquette...what started as a good round for me pretty quickly took a turn because of all this. I understand if a course gets crowded or things slow down, but either don't let a single go off in the first place or catch the single at the turn and make the adjustment. It was obvious that a ranger was sent out, and made changes without first getting an idea of what was actually going on and what group(s) were causing the slow pace.

Don't feel the need to come back here.

Should be better

The course itself isn't bad, but the greens seemed very inconsistent. The cart paths are pathetic, like driving on the moon and I hate gas golf carts. We got a hot deal, but everyone agreed that we wouldn't be coming back soon. The staff was very nice.

Decent Experience for the Price

Pace of play seemed to be a bit of an issue both times I've played here so far, but overall a fun course to play with great amenities such as beer cooler bags from the bar for the round, golf carts with gps screens, and cart girls throughout the day.

They have done miracles.

Had been a go to course as a cheap alternative. Then a couple years ago they started clearing trees. Now is much more enjoyable. Nice staff. Great course.
