Fun layout

Course is in good shape considering how dry it has been. Some spots are burnt out, but overall not bad. The layout is fun and keeps you on your toes, as many wholes have doglegs and blind hazards. Definitely will be coming back for more rounds here in the future.

First time playing wow

the Tuesday traveling Worcester golfers traveled to Crystal Lakes for the first time. 20 golfers and everyone enjoyed their day. the staff made everything goes smoothly and I would highly recommend this golf course. great conditions lot of people working on the cours.e. houses on the 8th hole a little too close but the course was there before the houses were built. moral of the story don't buy a house on a golf course but if you play Crystal Lake you'll enjoy it.

Walked

Old guys walking

I am 67 and my brother is 62. We walked the course in well under 4 hours. The Golf Now booking said walking so we brought the push pull carts. The great guy in the clubhouse said we could have a cart but we were already loaded. Perfect weather, great greens as usual. Very convenient and enjoyable place for me to play. The housing around the course has started up again so the ninth hole is reduced to a shirt par three. I play here quite often and recommend it to anyone. The course doesn't beat you up which makes for a great round.

Corona golf

During this pandemic the social aspect of golfing has been removed. The sport is still there but the social component is just as important to most of us.

Solid course

Course was in good condition. As long as you keep your ball in the fairway it is really nice. Anything off the fairway even if by just a little bit and you have less than a 50% chance of finding your ball, which is very frustrating.

Fun and challenging course

Challenging course, not the easiest 18 holes to walk as it has some hills. Also sucks that they decided to cram in houses all around the course and holes. Would play again with a cart.

Greens are fast and tricky. They were in great shape. Front nine is tight. Back nine let's you use your driver more. With some blind tee shots,I would recommend playing it a couple of times to know how to score better. Great value for $30 on golf now.

It Didn't Rain On Wednesday

Wednesday is my day to play and it always rains on Wednesday, except today !!!! Bright sunshine with a dry course !!! I don't play very well anymore, but I still enjoy a nice round of golf. Crystal Lake is a nice round of golf. Very friendly clubhouse man, nice playable course with really nice greens, a great place to play. Plenty of course from any of the four sets of tees that makes it a fun place to play. You will come back and play it again. Don't go long over the greens and stay below the hole on most of the holes, especially 13,16 and 17.

Nobody in Front

Early morning tee time in misty wet conditions. Overnight rain made the course very wet. No roll today !!! I have played here many times over the last two years and find it to be a great place to play. Not overly difficult, so it"s an enjoyable round. No fun if the course beats you up. Anytime you are looking for a good place to play, I recommend Crystal Lake in Haverhill.
