Good condition for time of year
Tees and fairways were in good condition. Greens were not smooth or consistent in speed but it should get better with more conditioning. Glad to see all greens now open with elimination of temporary green. Will gladly play again.
Couldn’t even play
We arrived for our 3:45 tee time, after driving almost an hour to get there, only to find out that we’d have to wait 40min. They said “well you think that’s bad, it was over an hour and a half this morning”... First off, we wouldn’t even have been able to play 9 holes by the time we got out there and secondly, if they knew that since the morning, why wouldn’t they have notified us?! They had all of our information.
Won’t even attempt to golf here again.
Great Course for all levels of Golf
Great course. Acushnet is a course in great shape all the time; Spring, Summer and Fall. It is challenging but fair for high handicaps and low handicaps. It has beautiful tree lined fairways somewhat tight on front nine and a nice links golf style back nine. Greens are always in great shape and so are the fairways. Most of the greens are elevated which adds (in my mind) to the challenge. The people who work at Acushnet are very nice, courteous and respectful. They have Pro Golf who is excellent.
Front & Back Very Different
ARV is a great course to play! The front nine is much different than the back; but both have their challenges. It was in great shape despite a very dry spring and summer. Fairway traps very unforgiving so keep the ball in the fairway (unlike me). But not too many places where you can't find your ball (or someone else's). Not the closest course if you live north of southern MA or in RI; but well worth the ride. You won't be disappointed. Can't wait to go back!
Challenging Layout
The best layout and conditions in this area. Conditions are always great. The other courses in this area could use a lesson from the grounds crew on how to maintain a golf
course.
Great course & value
I play different courses and in 2020 I played Acushnet River Valley the most. It was in great shape last year and I think the best value in the area for the money. The staff is generally very friendly, but there is one starter that is a control freak.
Excellent Layout
This course is always in great shape. It truly tests all aspects of your game. You must manage the course according to your abilities related to the clubs in your bag. A fun course to play.
Acushnet
Very good course at a fair price. Friendly staff.
Pace of play mismanaged -space better or a ranger on course please
A favorite
Why. a favorite? Well groomed, fun and challenging but very fair layout, friendly personnel,. Love the outdoor hotdogs!
Great Public Course
I played at this course in the early autumn and was happily surprised to see that the course was in very good condition, despite it being a public course that gets a lot of play. That being said, it is always crowded. Every time that I’ve played there, it’s crowded and there are delays on many of the tees. A twosome will always be paired up with another and there’s a good chance that a threesome will be assigned a single. It is sometimes difficult to get a tee time. If you don’t mind a long round, this course is recommended.
Grade A for ARV
Snagged a last minute Hot Deal on this windy November day and had no one near us. Our twosome got 18 holes finished in 2:40. The course is in great shape overall from tee to green. The variety of holes on this course is outstanding, and I was happy to see they cleaned up most of the geese droppings near hole 12. I highly recommend this course!
Amazing Course
If you can play this course for under $50 for 28 holes and a cart you’re getting a steal the course is beautiful they say we played it was 36 degrees outside with winds upwards of 50 mph and it still didn’t ruin our experience!
Great Layout Great Staff
Only complaint is I wish it was closer to my house. Gary the starter is the man. Plus he has a great mustache. Fair course but not a pushover. 13th hole one of the toughest par 4's you will find and its STRAIGHT LOL. LOVE Acushnet.
In defense of the golf course, how does someone book a tee time at 3:45pm and expect to play 18 holes?? Daylight in March ends at 7pm and that's with the sun shinning all day. You must be new to the game and not understand how a frost delay affects the tee sheet. Frost delays are common in New Engalnd in March. I played that morning and my tee time was dealyed an hour due to frost. So that means that the tee times are delayed an hour for the entire day due to morning frost. Its not the course's fault, blame morher nature. Its also not the course's responsibility to contact all 250 people on the tee sheet to inform them of a frost delay. Any golfer knows that it's their responsibility to contact the course to find out about delays when temperatures are freezing overnight.
