South course is still too scruffy

Course conditions never seem to get to where the regular greens fee price curse you. I got a great deal because I got a hot deal on golf now but their regular greens fees are way too high for course conditions. They need to spend more money

Gave pace of play a 3 only due to a very slow 4some on front nine. Flew through the back once they were done. Very fair women s tees.Some washed out areas due to heavy rains but in great shape. One temporary green.Maintenance ongoing and staff respectful to p!Ayers on course.. Only issue is cart paths need work. An overall great day.

Technical course

Enjoyable moderately difficult tract, but conditions on the South are below par now. Greens in particular have bald spots and a temporary on 5. Lots of rollovers, especially off the fairways unless you can play off dirt. Still a great Golfnow value. Will be back.

Not worth what they charge! Horrible conditions

Played this Sunday and the course is in some dire shape. The holes near the clubhouse looked ok, but once you got away from the clubhouse 2-8, etc the Fairways were in bad shape and the greens were horrendous. Would be good to play if you can play it for less than 40 including a cart but not anything more than that. Better off going into NH than driving 40 minutes to get here.

Greens

Played the North course. Course in generally good condition. A number of the greens were in very poor condition. Looks like summer heat took its toll on the greens.

Nice place

Booked the south course on Golfnow but there was a tourney going on so the guy let us go out the north, hooked up with a single on the first tee to make a threesome. Course is above average condition, new sugar in all the traps, fairways and “grabby” rough are good, greens have some bare spots due to recent heatwave.

Booked a tee time on Golf Now and thought my Visa was charged on line.......IT WAS NOT and was to be charged at the course. My son and his friend payed the fee charged by Golf Now at the course and my friend and I payed the Senior rate. At the end of the round I thought I was double charged for the rounds through Golf Now and paying at the course. Went into the clubhouse and was somewhat upset! The staff person remained calm and professional and showed me that my credit card was not charged because it was not a hot deal and therefore payment was due at the course! Even though I was WRONG the staff person apologized for the inconvenience and offered two free rounds of golf for nine holes!! Again, I have found staff members that work at Stow Acres treat guest professionally and are always accommodating and friendly!!

Good course; sometimes slow pace

I played the North course and it was in fairly good shape. The rough was actually little daunting specially just off the fairway and around the greens. I guess it was little sticky because we had some healthy dose of showers night before. The course definitely has some tight holes where you'll have to hit the ball in exact location with long irons or hybrids off the tee. It is a fair layout and rewards good ball striking. Some of the par 5s are quite short and scoreable if you hit some decent shots. It's a good value course; only pet peeve is pace of play can be little challenging at times.
