Great track layout
I really enjoy this course layout. The greens were in great shape. The hole layouts from tee box, fairway, to greens are a pleasure to play.
Great value
Played back 9 walking in the late afternoon. The course is very open, but wet (it has been a wet spring)). Greens were in good shape, but slow. No backup on back nine, front was slow due to league. Would recommend for the price $21 for 9). Would go again for this price. Staff was friendly, kind of a laid back spot.
It’s an okay course
Greens were in great shape. Played very quick for general public course, and rolled pretty true. In fact with the slopes of the greens, if they played any quicker they’d be unfair.
Course is still pretty wet. Not much the owners can do about that. Geese are out of control. No idea what you can do about that. Get a dog maybe.
Nothing too bad to say, it was a decent course, better than many. Get rid of the geese and I’d give it a 3.5.
Course is drying
The course is starting to dry out nicely. The front side was in good shape. The back side was still wet but they are doing a great job of managing the conditions. I would say they do need to put water out on the course for they players.
Every year gets worse.
Every year this course gets worse. I know it’s under new ownership but this course is in terrible shape. Has a ton of potential but it’s just is awful shape. Wouldn’t recommend this course to anyone
Good potential
First time playing this course. It was very wet but I expected this in early April. This place has potential, looks like the management is doing lots of work to clean the place, I think it would be nice in June! Greens are great at this time of the year. I hope they will build some kind of clubhouse, right now is not looking too good. One comment I need to make about the bathrooms, the course is wide open, located among residential area. The clubhouse bathroom did not work and two outhouses on the course were so bad that my husband and I could not use it. Because the location Crystal needs to have function facilities.
Wanted to play
Weather was cold and windy but we really wanted to get out. We both agreed that this must be a very nice course later in the season. April 4th was a little soon to judge fairly.
Great course for the Valley
I have played here for 3-4years. Very quiet, great prices and staff are always polite. Conditions, depending on the time of year can be the kicker due to New England weather. Early season you can deal with some very wet area, but the crew do an excellent job of maintaining the course. I am an intermediate (giving myself credit) player and with some really long and wide open fairways, you will have a great time. Best time I have found to go is early morning.
Way better
Compared to golfing there 10 years ago it’s like night and day.
after getting heavy rain from hurricane Florence it was cart path only but the fairways were fairly dry drainage was good we couldn’t believe how green the course was when we first pulled in. Great Value for this course spent more money at other courses that were not in good shape.
The Course is in good shape
Enjoyed the course it was fairly easy, the greens were in good shape, the negative comment is there is no amenities. No water coolers were set up on the course, no alcohol license, which was not a huge deal, but would be for some. No ranger monitoring the golfers, it got backed up and was just a bit frustrating, however it was so hot it was nice to rest in the shade. I understand it's under new management so I think there will be changes in the next year or two.
Gets a little better every round
Play Crystal Lake once or twice/month and it keeps getting better, as good as any public course in the area. Greens were a little slow but good. Fairways on 4, 7 and 9 still have a few bald spots but much improved. Nice to see an old established course get renewed. Needs a clubhouse and liquor license still, bring your own water and crackers. Twosome, got around in 3.5, very nice day.
New owners are working hard to make a great course
Tees and greens in great shape. The staff was super friendly and all
Narrow fairways make for a challenging course but over all good for a weekend golfer. I scored several pars and a couple of birdies with a chance for eagle.
I'll go back and play again
To address the reply from the course - you can't do much about how wet the course is. Obviously that impacts the areas just off the fairways that are overgrown and soggy. It just makes it a "meh" experience, but again - not much you can do.
What can you do? Figure out the geese. Get a dog or something to run them off. I probably wouldn't go back just because of the geese, it was that bad. A couple of holes were just disgusting, not to mention some of them had little ones and they'd block the cart paths when you tried to pass. I was walking, and that made it even worse.
