Greens

Best Norwich Greens of the year.

Civi. Is the best starter.

Still think a couple of wholes need closer women's tee placements and a few more Senior tees

First Time Playing

Will be back often

I got on late, around 6pm to play my second round today. I live nearby and it’s always busy so I figured I could walk a quick loop. Sadly, both the front and the back side had slow groups reloading every bad tee shot. Come on man. So I skipped ahead.

That being said, I was able to walk about 14 holes until the sun went down. $25 for the twilight rate. Pro shop guy was cool. The elevation changes and slope is very challenging, which I love. Tee boxes are mostly very good. Every green is in great shape. But man, a ton of undulating that I hadn’t seen before , being my first time here. Next time I’ll know better. Fast rolls. Gotta stay below the hole.

It’s not a long course from the back tees. And it’s pretty wide open on most holes. I wasn’t perfect but I had good lies on most holes, even off the fairways. Rough is maintained pretty well. Bunkers were solid. I really don’t have any issues except these guys were way too slow and shouldn’t be hitting that many tee shots with groups in front and behind.

If you walk it, be ready to climb some hills. I’ll be back soon, hopefully with a faster loop.

Better Policing

A foursome jumped in on Hole 10.

Apparently they had been terribly slow and inconsiderate in the first nine. They went to the clubhouse, came back out and pretty much angered several groups with the their lack of etiquette. The cart return staff was aware ... Which surprised us. If they were aware they should have sent a ranger to deal with that group.

Excellent Municipal Course!

The fairways and greens were in excellent condition. The course is historic and reasonably challenging, with tough hole placements. Sand traps were gravelly as is often the case in New England. The course has a an excellent cafe serving food and beverages with a pretty patio overlooking the course. I will certainly return with my friends.

Good challenge from the Blues

Course in very good condition from tees, fairways and greens. Pace was OK but waited on almost every hole. Fair value for a weekend day.

Great value

Great Value, fun layout! Not the longest course but definitely challenging. Fairways and greens where in great condition, sand traps definitely need some work. Great pace-of-play for a Thursday afternoon, 3 hours 15 minutes to play 18. Staff is always on top of things and very friendly and helpful.

First Time Playing

Early conditions with greens recently sanded.

Course a very nice layout in rolling hills. Side hill slopes reasonable and wide fairways allow high handicappers to enjoy play. Pace of play should have been faster but no ranger was seen and slow group in front of us made for a 4 hr round. We did enjoy the day and the value.
