Great layout

Started with tee time running 30 minutes late. Outside concession had no coke and was closed by 3:30 on a very hot day ! No ice available for bags of drinks to take on course. no drinking water on course at all and no beverage cart. Played with seniors who decided to quit early because of dehydration. Very disappointed.

Course Layout

Course layout was great. Greens were in great condition, challenging locations and elevations. Fairways were in great shape a few blind shots off the tee. Normal width but the elevations iand fairway bunkers make it a challenge to hold the fairway. About five holes in the back nine are a links style but they are very playable. Overall this is a must play for any golfer. .

They dont care about you.

Ok course conditions with a surprisingly inconsiderate staff. Frankly the staff was so consistently rude and unaccommodating that we will never be back. Just not worth it. Curt and unhelpful, we were often greeted with an annoyed tone for asking a question about new policies. We were not allowed to add a friend in to our group despite booking him immediately after us and calling multiple times the week before with no answer. There was also no attempt at the desk to find a solution so our friend went home instead. Pace was slow all day and a serious back up had developed by the end of 18. No cart girls, no water on the course and a long slow line to get one at the same window they use for check ins. Once finished with our round, our cart was demanded from us before we could even drive back to our car and drop off our bags. They leave a lot to be desired for such a steep price. Disappointed would be an understatement. Spend your time and money elsewhere.

Course is great but pace of play was brutal

I booked a tee time online for 12:18 and we did not tee off until 1 PM. We waited 45 minutes for a cart. The pace of play was so slow and it took almost 3 hours for us to play 9 holes. We paid for 18 but multiple groups cut in front of us on the back 9 so we left. The course is really beautiful but I wish that pace of play was enforced more strictly so that it wouldn’t take so long.

With that in mind, we are working to best control pace and allow everyone to get out for their rounds on time. We will continue to look for ways to improve and will use your comments as guidance in doing so. Thank you for playing Acushnet River Valley Golf Course. We hope to see you again soon.

Enjoyable

This is actually the third time I’ve played here this year. I keep going back because it’s an enjoyable course with a mixed layout. The first eleven are your normal tree lined course and 12-16 are a nice wide open links course. There’s always a nice breeze so it’s not as hot as other courses during these humid summer days. I highly recommend this course!!

Excellent condition

Very beautiful and in excellent condition. The greens were a little slow but they were in excellent shape. After hole number 10 you will be surprised with a total new style of course and very windy. I will definitely return.

Worst experience at a golf course, staff & pace of ply

Had a 10:20 tee time on Sunday 8/2/20. We got to the first tee at 1019 with 3 groups backed up waiting to tee off. Ended up teeing off at about 1045 (25 min late). We played 6 holes in about an hour and 45 minutes bringing us to 12:30. We were denied a rain check or refund when we politely asked. Ranger doesn’t do his job, and is more focused on people parking in the wrong spots in the parking lot and telling players to not drive carts past the cart signs. front desk manager not polite or understanding, course crams in tee times to try to make a buck without any consideration of pace. All in all 1/10 experience.

Gem of a course that’s worth the trip

Played here for the first time and was extremely impressed with the course and the experience overall. I’d gladly make the hour trip to this course again because the layout is fun, conditions are awesome, and the value is about as good as you can ask for in MA.

Did they want my money?

I understand covid 19 is currently happening but this was structured so bad from the start. Waited 15 min for someone to show up to the window you are suppose so pay at and the guy was rude off the bat. Signed up for a 139 tee time and didn’t tee off until 150. Then was behind the slowest pace I played this year. Three off the whole rhythm of the game
