Pinch Brook Golf Course

Boyoboy, it was cold and windy (43 F by the tiime we finished), but the fall colors were bright and framed this Rees Jones course beautifully. Mallards on the ponds, a really pleasant setting, all in all. In general, the fairways are wide and well-trimmed. Water comes into play on a number of holes, much to my chagrin. The greens are immaculate -- but fast and undulating, and defended by some formidable bunkers.

i can imagine that this course could be crowded on a summer weekend,but it wasn't on this date. We arrived and were greeted by name (even though it was our first time here) and were set up and out immediately. We were told there were two holes empty in front of us but we might catch up to a foursome by hole 6. They never held us up. My son walked and I rode, due to a sore knee, but it's a perfect course for walking -- flat and short. Many par 3's; only two par 5's, and they aren't really long.

Our tee time was at 1:30 and I had neglected to take the fall-back hour into consideration, so we ran out of light before we finished. The course closed at 5PM but the ranger came to get us at 4:30 and told us (cordially) we had 15 minutes to get back to the clubhouse. So we took off, but we will be back.

there is water on nearly 14 holes, 9 par 3's and greens with alot if undulation. you need to play well to score well. give it a try you wont be disappointed! staff very friendly! Oh and the course rating is incorrect, from the blue tees its 63.9/111, not 98

This is a very nice course, and for the price I paid, was well worth it. The people behind the desk can be a little snobby and off putting, but they gave me a better deal and an earlier tee time when I showed up early, so they are businessmen at heart.

Overall, good time, and it was worth the money.

Pinch Brook is a very well maintained course, easy to navigate, moderately challenging and the staff all very friendly. Pretty landscaping with lilly ponds, weeping willows and lots of wild life. Got a birdie on 9th hole - lots of possibilites!

Very enjoyable place to be.
Should be played at a faster pace for a relatively short course.

Not a bad course. The Golfnow.com hot deal is a bargain. I'm not sure what happened to the other reviewer but my greens fees including cart was less than $20 on a weekday.

it is short, but maintain well and green is tricky.

I booked an 8:10 am tee time at this course through golf now that was supposed to include a round of golf and motor cart. However, when I arrived at pinch brook, I was informed that there was some sort of mistake and that the cart wasn't actually supposed to be included. Rather than honor the mistake, they wanted to charge me an additional $17 for the cart and said that I should take up the issue with golf now. Very disappointing!

this course has less hazard and very forgiven.....

Water hazards give the short holes some difficulty.

a lot of part 3 to sharp your short game. If you have 3 to 4 hours for an easy afternoon, it is for you. Not regular 18 holes course. Short one, but decent. p.s. I didn't say it is easy, right!
