Rent a mower or something

Rough wasn’t cut. Lost balls just off the fairway numerous times. Bunkers were mud baths. Greens were slow and shaggy. No driving range or hitting bays. No real ProShop for gear, but the indoor staff was friendly. Very slow play and no rangers to help. Very poorly managed and badly manicured course.

Huge positive to the 19th hole, food was amazing.

Great public course for the price

Always enjoy playing here. The grounds are pretty well kept, and the staff are always polite and accommodating. Plus you cant beat 5 tall boys on ice for 20$. 40-60$ to play is definitely worth it here.

Challenging Course

This was my first time playing Meadows at Middlesex. I was paired with three friendly local golfers and I had a great time. The course has a good design and will challenge golfers of all levels. The course needs some general maintenance and appears to have been neglected for a few years but I was assured by the pro shop that improvements were underway and that appeared to be the case. I would play the course again.

Needs Investment Immediately

Not sure if the greenskeeper knows this, but mowing the fairway lower than the rough is the way to go. Couldn’t tell the difference between the two in a lot of spots.

Greens were ok, strangely discolored and extremely slow. Someone said it looked like some kind of damage in the greens but the Ranger didn’t know.

“Bunkers” need done badly. A lot of mud and rocks, and the ones you could play out of were not raked unfortunately.

Tees were in horrendous shape. Very beat up.

Course probably needs a few million dollars invested to survive. Most likely won’t be around in a few years without some major improvements by ownership.

Poor time

Worst time I’ve had playing this course. Wasn’t in great condition. Pace of play was extremely slow and had groups of kids picking up our balls while also driving their golf carts on the putting green. Was a waste of a day for our group.

This sucked

The course bunkers have rocks, and they aren’t raked. The fairways are patchy, you cannot tell the difference between the fairway and the rough. The greens were not too bad, but they could use some work.

What’s Happening

This use to be one of my favorite courses due to the layout. However, the course conditions have tremendously declined. As many others have stated you can’t even tell the difference between the fairway and the rough. Grass was very long, greens were extremely slow, tee boxes hadn’t been maintained. Several of the greens were completely covered geese poop. Definitely not worth the money in its current state

Mr Bru Bru

Great layout. Some tough holes on the back nine. Greens were very consistent but a bit fluffy. U didn’t need to roll ur ball in the fairways due to some bare areas.

Overall very enjoyable. Will def go back.

Everything's nice except the grass

Starter and staff were extremely friendly, pace of play was great, the practice green had a full hiitting net (which more facilities should have IMO) - but the fairways and greens were in seriously rough shape.

Maintenance

I was hesitant to post any review because it seemed the course was taking enough heat.

But after reading that the greens weren’t mowed for the weekend we played because the greens keeper was “trying to not stress them out” is a joke. It’s April and from what I could tell the course was packed.

But it wasn’t just the greens. You couldn’t even tell the difference between fairways and rough, the grass was so high. Is there a maintenance budget at this course? Tell Middlesex County they have to actually spend money other than Tamarack…

Waste of money

This place is atrocious, I've played this course multiple times and the course is in the worst shape I have ever seen it. I don't think I even seen a greenskeeper or superintendent on the course this year. The guys used to be out and about working on all kinds of stuff and you could tell the course was on its way up, I'm not sure what happened but this course is not worth the money it cost to play here anymore. Save your money! I just kept hearing from people and the other reviews I have seen on here are the saving grace supposedly is they hired a new superintendent, and are going to be working on irrigation problems. I have talked to other players that play here on a regular basis about this and they said it's always been promised to the course and never happens. This must be a township thing like they said, it's a shame cause this place has a lot of potential and I've seen that with in the last two years but it's taken two steps forward and five steps back this year.

Forgot to Mow?

Greens were very slow and not smooth. Some of the slowest greens I have played in the area unfortunately. Greenskeeper definitely didn't cut.

Pace was annoying, group in front lost a ball on almost every hole. Ranger said it was normal for the weekend to be that slow. I think we finished just a little over 5 hours.

Desk staff was very friendly.

Thank you for the feedback. The greens were slow last weekend as we are trying to not stress them as we work through irrigation repairs that are almost complete. They will be back to normal speed this week.
