18 in December

For a December round it was good! No issues with golf course, pretty good shape, friendly staff and fellow players. Course closes after first snow so probably last until April 2023.

Nice course, good value

The course and staff were great. The foursome in front of us were goofing around constantly and we had to wait on every shot. frustrating

Solo walking

Friendly staff and playing partners! Lots of PAR 5 & 3, with some PAR 4 sprinkled in. Moderate for walking some steep hills but a challenging course. Don’t play pin high on 18, if hole on right rear. Enjoyed day!

Donald Ross

Great Donald Ross course. Never a flat lie on the fairway. Tough approach shots. Fairways are wide with water trouble on half the holes. Greens can be challenging but are medium speed. Views are the best around.

Fairways ,,tees,,greens!!!!

The fairways tees and greens are ok ,, some holes are tight with the rough a little high which makes it better to stay on the fairway !!!this Good layout needs course management. I think choosing tees you play from

3 Hour 9

Took way too long to play 9 holes. Should never be 3 hours especially not on a Thursday at noon. Left after 9 due to terrible pace. Will not be returning.

Just go somewhere else...

Played this with a friend of mine who lives near Derry, NH and it was awful. Pace of play was the slowest I've ever experienced and I'm not usually a fast player. The course was in overall poor condition compared to other courses in the area. Greens were in good shape, but the fairways were dry as a bone and the ball ran for days. Pace of play was really what killed this course for me. We had a foursome in front of us that was playing like they were the only people on the course and when they left after the front nine, the starter decided to put another foursome right in front of us on the back 9 and they were all walking. We left after 9 even though we paid for 18 because it was just so bad.
