Chas'

Day before Thanksgiving, beautiful weather, no wind. Fairways clean of leaves and greens gorgeous. We play here often and love it. Took a Golfnow package 40.00 with cart...we normally walk. Expected a crowd because of holiday, wasn't bad. Called ranger though had a fivesome in front of us. Pace of play almost always slow here. Ready golf guys and gals! 5 stars year round.

Best public course around

Course was in pristine shape. Greens were true and fast. The staff was beyond helpful. The fairways were in great shape and the fall leaves were no where to be found. For the price you can’t believe you’re playing at a course this nice. Any other course in this great shape would be twice as much. One of the best public courses around within 25 miles of Acushnet. Can’t say enough great things about this course

Unique and Great

First time out to Acushnet this year. Love the two different course types you get when you play ARVGC. Absolutely perfect course conditions two days before Thanksgiving. Few people out which made for a super fast round. Not a difficult course by any means but certainly one of the most unique and fun courses to play in all of MA. Hard to believe it is a muni. Great job ARV!

Beautiful Fall day!

Course overall was in great shape. Tee boxes were a little beat up. Pace of play was a little slow, might have been group ahead not playing the right tee box or ready golf.

Awful pace of play

Second playing here and both times it took 5 hours to finish a round. Very slow pace of play with no rangers out there to speed groups along.

Off course food was decent at best, course layout is great and the green and fairways are very nice. Terrible terrible time waiting 10 min at every tee box for the fairway to clear

A lot of bare spots in the fairways

We had a group of 4, in front of us that were playing a scramble. They started out with a foresum of women in front of them and after 4 hole s the women were gone and they held us upon every shot. There were no rangers on the course, we called the club house and they never sent someone out. It made for a very painful round. Will not go back to this course.
