Mere Creek Golf Course

Course was in great condition and provides interesting challenges for all levels of play without being intimidating.. Friendly staff and both indoor and outside options to enjoy food and beverages add to the overall experience..

I enjoyed this course quite a bit, it was a beautiful day. The Course was clean and the grass was well cut.

This Course at Mere Creek is in Perfect Condition, I mean Perfect. The grounds are mowed to perfection, the Greens are some nice. They have opened up the Wooded area and trimmed some trees and remove the underbrush. It has never be this nice.

Former golf course for Brunswick Naval air station, now public since the Navy’s departure. Conditions much improved. Design requires hard and fast fairways given the length of holes 3, 6,7, and 9. Greens well maintained, putt true. Bunkers marginal, fairways and rough relatively ragged. Good beginner’s course, with driving range (poor shape) and nice practice area.

I wish no one knew about this 9 hole course. I would love to have the time to play this course at 10 am on a sunny warm day. But! that is when the other 300 , 70 year old and up foursomes come out ( mostly walking) The golf course is in great shape. They use natural surroundings (uncut grass- mostly marsh grass ) to add a level of difficulty to the layout. There is an interesting hill that comes into play for 3 of the holes; you will play a par three that goes straight up hill. That would be great, except that one of the people in these foursomes loses their ball in the woods, everyone goes to look for it until they find it. At times I wanted to run up ahead and just give them a ball. I have learned to go very early in the morning or very late afternoon. You shouldn't miss a chance to visit Brunswick; and you shouldn't miss a chance to play this course that is so well maintained that it is well worth the wait.

We have played this course for the past 25 plus years and feel that it needs major work. I have never seen it in such bad shape. I know there has been no rain but that does not explain why it is such an eye sore. Yesterday we played and all greens had sand on them. I understand this maintenance needs to happen but really putting across sand was not acceptable.

They have a driving range with real grass to hit from. They have a nice little putting green where you can work on chipping and sand. It's too early in the Maine season to talk about the course. When you consider that the whole state was still covered in snow just a little more than a week ago---it's in nice shape. Everything is very soft--but--there still are no bugs! It's a great place to work out the kinks. Let's face it--just like the course still needs some early spring attention--so does our bodies and our game. Why drop nearly 100 dollars someplace--when you can come here for less than 20 and get the same wake-up call.

We were greeted politely. I’m a fairly new golfer, and I’m very happy to say, I shot a 47, to my husbands 46. We paired up with two older gentlemen, Riley and Rick, to help speed up the pace of play. There was a young foursome ahead of us, walking, and they should have let us play thru, but didn’t. So we paired up with the two gentlemen. Two very nice men to golf with. Over all, we will definitely play this corse again.

Arrived at course 45 minutes early for a late morning tee time. Was advised that ladies group was just arriving and heading out. Desk person suggested I go to driving range or putt around for a while.

When I went to tee box later, 2 other golfers were waiting to go, about 20 minutes after their scheduled time. They asked if I wanted to join them. As we went off, the course was very wet from light rain and fog, which was lifting quickly. No sooner after we hit our first shot we were slowed down to a snails pace, due to slow play ahead. We didn’t space out until the 8th hole. The other two fellows were only playing nine holes. I continued my play and headed back to the 1st tee. Sun dried up course and conditions were much improved. There was nobody in front of me and played the first 5 holes at my own pace, which was about 3 times faster that my first nine. At the 6th hole I caught up to a threesome who allowed me to play through!! Finished round in 1/12 hours. Big improvement from earlier!!

Booked through golfnow and selected late morning tee time. Reservation was completed and I received a confirmation. I arrived at Mere Creek about 50 minutes ahead of tee time. I was advised by staff that I would not get my 18 hole reserved round in because they had previously scheduled a tournament in the early afternoon. They indicated I may be able to complete about 15 holes. Seeing I was mildly confused, he offered a 25 % discount and we decided to stay and play, as much as time would permit. Fortunately, we got 14 holes in before the shotgun start people began to show up at our tee boxes. Golfnow should have been advised and not taken our 18 hole reservation!! The course should have seen this and called me about the conflict. It was a perfect day to play golf and we would have enjoyed playing a full round.

It was a beautifully warm, calm day, the course looked great. Fairways could have been mowed a little better and the ruts should be filled in cart travel would not be so rough. The fifth hole tee area, near the swamp, we’re inundated with small black biting flying bugs of some sort. They attacked me making it very uncomfortable trying to get them off my arms and legs. Tee boxes and greens, in general, were nicely maintained.

All in all a pretty good golfing experience!!

Played for $10 on a Hot Deal and it was good a value as I’ve ever played. Completely serviceable In everyway. Nothing spectacular, great for newcomers to the sport. Would play this everyday of the week for $10 though.
