Everything was great.
Teed off on time and the pace was steady.
Typical Muni
You get what you pay for. Course is nothing to write home about but it’s a cheap round of golf so you can’t really complain
Course below average at best
The course is one big swamp on the front nine. Front 9 is horrible just a bunch of bugs and hidden swamps.
The back 9 is in much better shape but the layout is borderline awful. Super short.
Muddy but fun
Very muddy course with a lot of tough lies simply because of the lack of grass or muddy conditions, but otherwise it’s not too difficult and is fun for the price!
Not for Advanced Golfers
Booked a one person fill-in slot on Labor Day Monday (only course to have an opening the night before). I’m a 3 handicap and I don’t recommend it for any advanced golfers. This might be the flattest course I’ve ever played, not to mention that it was still soaking wet, even after a relatively dry week beforehand, and there isn’t a discernible difference between fairway and rough on most holes. The layout is extremely back-and-forth. But it is extremely scorable, with many short and dead straight par 4’s. There’s also a 220 yard par 4 and a 400 yard par 5. Avoid if you’re looking for a challenge, play if you’re just looking to go out with a few friends for a laid back round of golf.
Good when it’s dry
Relatively short course and very flat. Greens were very good and fairways/ tees were pretty good. The course will sometimes close all or some of the holes of it rains a lot and it is on a bog so don’t play after a rainy day. I had a great time today. Great staff. Some of the old patrons don’t quite understand basic etiquette of letting someone play through, but I won’t hold that against the course. Good course for beginner to intermediate players.
Well rounded
Ok so not the worlds hardest course by any means but if your like me and can benefit from a forgiving layout you will like it. Staff did over charge me but were quick to correct and otherwise were very good.
Very annoying and unfriendly ranger
My son and I went to play golf as a Father’s Day outing. We arrived on time and waited for the players before our tee time to arrive. After about 20 minutes, they did not show up. The starter let us start with another player. When we started playing, there were three holes empty because the players before us were way ahead. But after a couple of holes, this ranger kept chasing us and pushing very hard asking us to play faster to fill the gap. He followed and bothered us for 3 holes and we played as fast as we can. But there is no way we can catch up with players before us because we were 3 holes behind at start. The ranger was very unfriendly and said some nasty words, which ruined our day!
The course condition was the worst we have ever played!
The green was bad and fairway was rough and muddy.
The boy at the front desk was very nice.
Poor Course Condition for Value
This was my first time playing this course, but the conditions of the course definitely didn't match what was paid. There was standing water all over the course even with a light rain the day before. Definitely wouldn't play this course again until the standing water issue was resolved as it was almost unplayable.
Course was very wet. Super hard to find balls even in fairway as they could sink in. Planes also offer a good distraction.
Go somewhere else if you can!
Of all the public courses in Massachusetts, this is definitely one of them. Set in a swamp, even on a hot, dry, beautiful day you will find standing water in fairways and clippings from mowing the course strewn about. If it wasn’t priced 50 dollars for a Saturday round and if “country club” wasn’t in the name- perhaps the review would be better. Unfortunately the expectations set by name and price are not lived up to by the course itself. Get more for your dollar by going to Newton Commonwealth (same management group!) or Robert Lynch in Brookline. Just really not worth the price they charge.
And all of that is only on the front nine (taken from my google review while making the turn) On the back nine, youll be treated to a downed power line on 10, and low flying single engine planes wobbily making their approach to the nearby private airport. Save your money and the headache and play somewhere else. Staff are great, but as it is, the place is not a salvageable location for a course.

Course was very wet, low to average conditions, greens not well taken care of. Fairways to close together, people hitting balls from other fairways, almost hitting other golfers. Would not golf there again unless it was cheaper priced for its condition.
Cheap course close to home
Booked a round on GolfNow for 9:40 am and paid for it online. Went in and the country club had no record of it. Course was wet and swampy. And next door to the airport so lot of action in the air = lot of noise when trying to tee off.
Played worse places.
Played better places.
This was close and cheap and did the trick.
Poor Conditions
It rained a lot the night before and there was a ton of water/puddles all over the course (really pour drainage) and we weren't allowed to play the front 9 because it was so wet. We had to play the back 9 twice. Almost every hole was really straight and easy, and we kept losing balls in puddles of water.
