Sandwich Hollows Golf Club

The Cape is having a tough year with little rain, but they are holding it together at the Hollows. That's saying a lot for a municipal course with very limited resources. The rough is burned out but the fairways and greens are in terrific shape. A real credit to the staff. A joy to return every year when visiting the Cape.

Good looking track. I would definitely come back. Nobody driving the course with beverages on a 95° day, but no coolers allowed either. Warm water from our bags was better than passing out though.

The first thing that usually happens when arriving to a course and playing golf in the morning, especially a Sunday morning, is walking inside and having a s***. Well, don’t expect this here. 90 degrees at 8 am. “We have porta potty’s” say. Ok. Thanks.

Unkempt. Burnt out. Target golf.

No thanks.

Played the course with my beginner teen. Not an easy course for someone just picking up the game due to changes in elevation, blind shots, and burnt rough. However, the greens were in good shape and very consistent. The fairways were in pretty good shape too. For the price, you won’t find a better deal on the Cape!

I have played Sandwich Hollows several times and generally enjoy it. But the course is suffering from, maybe overplay, at the moment. It needs of all things, water. Compared to other courses on the Cape, SH is dry. The tee boxes are beat up, the fairways are ok, but with lots of brown areas and the tees are in good shape. The town ought to invest more money and will surely reap the rewards.

I booked 4 different courses on a summer trip to the Cape - I ended up playing at Sandwich Hollows the first day and enjoyed it! Green conditions awesome under drought conditions. Fun 'Boston' guys as starter and cart maintenance at the end. I came back a second time as a single at 545am and played 18 holes in 90 minutes! And then took my son and played for a third time today! Very playable golf course - friendly pro and staff! You can even catch a croquet match if you are lucky! There was an accident on the bridge and we were 60 minutes late - no problem the staff on the phone told me! Just show up and we will get you out he told me...Keep up the great green conditions!

8 mins between groups 5:15 round

Greens in great shape, (also really slow), fairways mosrly good, parts or course burned up

Juat way roo slow & crowded

Still, a great price on a nice course, was told it's not usually this slow by regulars

Played Sandwich Hollows previously and thought it was a pretty decent play, a deal, and had a very nice experience . Convinced my golf buddy to play on our way off of The Cape. Returned today and the experience was a not as special.

We had a late morning tee time and when we arrived and got into the cart, we were instructed to bring water as there was none on the course . When we arrived at the starter 5 minutes before our tee time, there was already a back up of three groups. There was a group on the tee box waiting to tee off, a group waiting and then us.

While waiting , the starter mentioned that no coolers were allowed on the course. I told him that we had extra frozen water due to the no water on the course and no alcohol and he could inspect if he wanted. I had a very small soft cooler that holds a 6-pack of 12 ounce cans. It was hot 84 deg + and supposed to get a little bit warmer, so I brought 3 20 ounce bottles of water frozen. The cart woman came by and also told us no coolers, which I replied it is just frozen water, and she said coolers are not allowed and made us remove it. So after removing the frozen water, we quickly dropped the cooler back at the car.

I understand the no cooler if filled with alcohol, but water, especially when they don't have cold water on the course and it's hot , is bush league if you ask me. My frozen water was warm by the 4th hole.

The other thing that added to the lesser experience, was no ranger to keep things moving. We watched many groups hit into the trees and every time spend 5+ minutes looking for it, sometimes with 2 or 3 people as groups were stacking up behind them waiting to hit. My rule of thumb, if folks are waiting to hit, 1 minute looking for your ball at most, else consider it lost and drop. No one behind you take more time. If you're concerned about losing a $4 Titleist, either get better so you're not launching it into the trees every drive or play a less expensive ball.

The course was in good/very good condition, but not spectacular . Tee Boxes and greens were in very good shape. Greens rolled true. Many fairway areas very dry. Sand in bunkers was good and predictable.

My main complaints are it took 3 h to play 9 h. Yes it was the weekend, but with carts, and a competent ranger, 2.5 h mxx and the bush league stuff about no coolers for keeping/bringing cold non-alcoholic drinks (water) cold on a very hot day, when no water is provided on the course. I left after 9 as another 3 h on the course would have put me on the road at a time that would add another 1+ hours to a 1 h 15 drive.

With some many quality places to play on the Cape for similar $, I may look elsewhere in the future. I like the course, just not this time.

Greens in great shape, but slow. Fairways burnt in places and many parts of rough were dry and rocky. Very hilly course, but that was a known before play.

Very hilly and long. Some interesting holes but not a very forgiving course. Conditions were so so but it has been a very dry summer. Would not play again
