Chicopee Woods Golf Course is a public, 27-hole layout in Gainesville. The course is tucked amongst the Appalachian foothills, giving it a scenic terrain of rolling hills. The holes are divided into three nines: the Village, the Mill, and the School, that are played in three different 18-hole combinations. Five sets of tees provide even more variety. The Village nine is the longest of the three and it's also the driest. There is only a small lake beside the second hole. That doesn't mean the golf course isn't challenging though, you'll still face several strategically placed bunkers. There are a few scattered trees but the course is mostly open and offers some room for error. In addition to the 27 holes, Chicopee Woods G.C. also has a driving range and chipping and putting greens.

I like Chicopee and have played it several times. Couldn’t put tee in the ground a few times and tee boxes were more like playing out of sand. Paired us up with another twosome but there was zero need to do so as the course wasn’t crowded at our tee times at all.

Clubhouse is ALWAYS closed, including bathrooms, if you finish up late. Also, the prices have gone way up over the last couple of years. This used to be a great place to play for a great ROI. Not so much anymore.

Chicopee is a must play

Really nice course and well maintained. White sand bunkers well groomed and staff was extremely friendly. Scenic views and when in season is a great value. Would play again!

5 1/2 hours!!!!

This is a good course overall, however, it is very busy, they don’t space out golfers enough, and they make no attempt at having a marshal enforced Pace of play. The result was a 5 1/2 hour round and we counted 14 people on the back line who drew off, not even finishing their round.

Longest round of my life

Big fan of the Chicopee, but we ended up leaving after it took 4 1/2 hours to get through 11 holes. There were 3 groups stacked up on a Par 3 with three more on every other hole. They really have to space the tee times out better. Won’t be playing on the weekend here again.

Tee rimes

As many golf courses do, booking tee times to close together along with improper staffing make for a long day on the course.

Most would prefer to pay more if tee times were staggered further apart.

Building Facility Usage

The building closes its doors too early, making it extremely inconvenient to use the restroom.

Great course

I love playing Chicopee. Such a great course with a great layout. The three nine hole courses make your experience unique every time. The course is in great shape, especially the greens. I played by myself and there was no one in front so I finished an hour ahead of pace. Such a great value for such a nice course.

Great Course

Great course in great condition and a solid value. Greens were in amazing shape for December. Staff was friendly and the amenities were very nice.

Will definitely be back. Honestly this may be my new “go to” local course.
