About
Agawam Municipal Golf Course has been a favorite among local golfers since first opening in 1944. It has a traditional layout that offers a few challenges but it's still player friendly enough for golfers of any skill levels. The holes are fairly straightforward but the gently rolling hills provide some subtly tricky elevation changes. There isn't any water on the golf course but there are mature trees lining the fairways. While it may not be what you're looking for if you're an avid golfer who wants a truly formidable test, Agawam Municipal Golf Course is not to be under-estimated. The greens can be tricky to pitch to and accuracy will take you far. This municipal course is a great spot for a quick and casual round that's also affordable.

Good Course
Not sure what the regular rates are for here but I thought my experience was more than fair for what I payed. Well kept conditions, some what of an easy layout, pace of play was good from what seemed like a busy Sunday afternoon, and staff were friendly.

Engaging Eighteen
Agawam presents two different styles of play: the front’s generally open character leaves you free to drive the ball with some abandon; the back tightens up considerably and demands target golf to clear landing zones. I was disappointed with conditions today, especially in relation to their comparative superiority in early May. Today, fairways on the front were uneven (a couple were patchy), greenside areas fair, and greens showed the effects of heavy play.
The layout itself kept me engaged fully. Greens are tough to read and to putt all the way around as their undulations range from moderate to dramatic. Tee to green, holes eight through twelve will require your ‘A game’ if you hope to score decently over this tough stretch.

Agawam
In spite of the mushy spots because of the rain
The golf course is always well maintained
Staff is beyond friendly
One of my favorite courses for sure
Thank you for your review, em01107. We will pass along your positive experience to our team at Agawam Municipal Golf Course. We look forward to seeing you again soon.
Shouldn't have been open
Course was beyond soggy with a ton of areas blocked off. Had multiple tee shots plop dead into the mud on fairway. Greens were not rolling true. Shouldve been closed for Conditions.

Due to inclement weather, I tried calling this course over 25 hours prior to our tee time as we had to travel 1.5 hours to get to the course. You could not get through to the pro shop and no one called me back even after leaving a message for a return call. We drove out to the course only to find out there were no carts available and since we were playing with someone with a heart condition, walking was out of the question and we were unable to play
They should have made an effort to contact people.
Very disappointed in Agawam.

Wet Grounds
After all the rain we had it wasn't to bad.
Tee time was 9 and the fairways were wet and the greens were slow.
Still a good course to play for the cost.
Thanks so much for the great review, cred1080. We look forward to welcoming you back to our course soon. Thanks for choosing Agawam Municipal Golf Course.
