Challenging but fair

Nice course layout that makes you have to hit your shots consistently but doesn’t hurt you to bad if you miss hit a little.

Great conditions

The greens were in amazing shape and even with all the rain recently it still was as wet as I expected. The greens rolled great as well. Definitely play again.

Highly Recommend for Mid Handicap or Better

The course is not very long offering a lot of risk/reward on deciding driver vs. hybrid/iron off the tees. The huge greens are very difficult for a first time player of the course. Many greens are elevated with false fronts and/or multiple tiers. Several pin placements made course knowledge required to know what area of the green to be on for a legit putt.

We went out after a member/member tournament so it's possible the pins were intentionally difficult.

All that said, the course is great and I would highly recommend.

HOWEVER, if you are a slow player or high handicapper this course is not for you. The pace of play rules state a 4 hour round should be achieved and for groups that have several players who hit in the high 90s or 100s they will be challenged to keep pace and finish holes.

MCC Review

The course was in very good shape. The greens were a little slow and a few spots were still showing signs of the aeration. Play was a little slow because it was free golf day for town residents. Over all a very good course. The New restaurant in Club House is Fantastic!!

Dress Code

First of all I like the course. A lot of fun to play. However, when I entered the pro shop yesterday I was informed I could not wear my jeans out on the course. I understand dress codes as father belonged to two private courses in RI. However, in December to spring opening nobody really cared about how you dressed back then.

I that is your policy that is fine but it does not make a lot of sense to me financially. Obviously you will not be seeing me any time in the future.
