Rating Snapshot
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.

Great early November golf. For a beginner, it’s a forgiving course and great value for the fee.

Course is in great shape. I've gotten used to it being very busy and this being Saturday 75° day in November with every other course booked full, it was no surprise that the 18 would not get finished. Oh well, no complaints. It was a good round ... Just wish people wouldn't take 10 shots to get to the green is all
We appreciate the feedback. Unfortunately, that is the nature of it if we want to grow our game! We're sorry you couldn't finish! Come back again soon, hopefully you'll have better luck!
Thanks for the amazing review and for choosing Agawam Municipal Golf Course. We hope to see you again soon!
