East at Tamarack Golf Course

For a course to be vacant for 2 months, and to be in as bad shape as it was, is shameful! Greens were the worst I've EVER played! Crazy amount of mud and tractor tire marks in the mud. Around the greens was a goat pasture. they have obviously not used the down time to do ANYTHING to the place, as most other courses have used the time to seed, cut, clean, and trim up, this place was a mess!

Only East course is open for play. Condition on the course is very bad. Puddles of water everywhere . Most fairways are kind of flooddd and too much sand on the greens.. because of the season the greens are covered with goose poop. Course rangers should consider letting players start from the back back 9 because only 1 course is open and there is a big line for it.

The course really needs makeover. The drainage is so bad, just like swamp on the fairway and greens are messed up. The layout was nice though.

The best this course has been in months even with the goose crap and leaves. Don't waste your money.

Fairways are good but leaves were not blown away from the greens

We had a frost delay of over an hour, but it was chilly so understandable. Course and greens in relatively good shape, very good layout for all levels of play. Maybe a little pricey for out of county.

Played here for the first time in more than 10 years. ONLY reason I did was because it an outing and didn’t cost me anything. Food is terrible, carts are ancient, at least 10+ years old, greens were unplayable, fairways were bare and where it wasn’t, it was weed infested and the clubhouse smelled like urine. I’d quit golf before ever plying here again, even for free!

Pace of play was was horrible. There was more sand on the greens than some of the bunkers. They seem to be aerating the greens a month after every other course. I have been playing there on and off for the last 35 years and Middlesex county still can't get it right.

I played the course today after not having played it for almost a month and a half. Last time I played the fairways were burnt with many bare spots and the greens were in horrible condition. I had thought that given end of season that they would have recovered somewhat.

At the front desk before paying for my round I specifically asked them what kind of condition the course was in. I was told “it’s playing really good“. So… I proceeded to pay my fee and go ahead and play. West course was closed so I played the east. First of all the fairways have not recovered well. Worse yet, every single green was recently aerated and sanded. They were basically unplayable.

I was so angry I went in to complain to the management after my round. They did give me a coupon for a free return round but I don’t think that I’ll be back to this until it recovers fully. That will probably be sometime next year.

I play there regularly, but only because my golfing partner lives nearby and doesn't drive. I actually like the layout and the challenges, especially some tricky shots over water. My issue with the course is the price, which is high, especially when you consider how poorly the course is maintained. It's often a challenge finding grass in the fairways and many greens have worn-out spots of dead grass and dirt. You'll also occasionally see your ball "splash" when landing near the green, but there's no water. It's hit a pile of sand and died on the spot.

Should be in much better shape for the money they charge.

There was a unexpected cart girl on the course on Saturday morning. I wish there was a liquor license available. The fairways and greens were average and the course layout is challenging. We played the East.

The fairways in very poor conditions. The greens also in poor conditions

Course is in terrible condition, every fairway is muddy and patches of dirt all over, the greens aren’t any better, covered in weeds. Tee boxes I understand this late in the season are going to be beat up,
