Great track

Front 9 was a little wet. Overall, the course was in great shape. Very happy I took the ride up from Boston. Will definitely be coming back.

loved all the water, even with the condo buildup

First time here. I was surprised by the amount of wetlands, with the great water views, for Methuen (although I do prefer a bit less development right to the edge of many of the fairways). Everyone (staff and players) was extremely friendly, and welcomed us to the club. We will return, as the season progresses, to see the course conditions improve with the New England weather (little tough sticking to the cart path all the time - given my playing abilty).

Perfect weather
Used cart

The course did not know i had booked it with Golf Now. We had to call GN to confirm the booking. This had happened before there. Merrimack Valley CC said they are going to sever ties with Golf Now. This is the 2nd time I had arrieved at a course and gone thru this.

Frozen

Despite playing in 27 - 30 degree weather today, the course was a joy. Holes have not been moved in weeks sold loose in the ground, It was just good to get out and play! I played entire round with hybrid which I recommend when ground is frozen as it helps me focus on feel. Ty he course under these conditions becomes more of a ground game as fairways and greens react to ball as if they were a cart path (or pool table). Staff always friendly and warm

Good course for the time of year

Course is in pretty good shape for being late November and the cheaper fall rates will definitely keep me coming back until they close for the year.

Great challenge

Not a long course but the Undulations make it challenging. It is in great shape and the value is amazing. It’s a walkable course.

Bad staff

Charged for 18 holes at 130pm and guy came out yelling at the 10th that we couldnt turn the corner at 4pm. We had 30 minutes until sunset which we were told we had to bring cart bad. Could have been handled calmly and respectfully. Disgusted by the treatment. At lunch before and staff was very nice. That gentleman ruined my experience .

Beautiful course and the nicest staff

This is my first time playing the course. The layout is fantastic. Very beautiful and scenic course.

I would play here 2 to 3 times a week. The staff is 5 stars without exaggeration.

The owner is the nicest guy and he's clearly proud of his beautiful course that I'm sure brings lots of joy to all players.

The starter is the best! He's courteous, kind and knowledgable. His team are great as well.

Thanks guys
