2nd: Par-4, 393. First of three holes on the difficult “Cat’s Claw.” The green can’t be seen from the fairway’s landing zone. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 08/08/2021
-
3rd, par-4: Another tricky Tillinghast hole. The Cape design features this marshy hazard curving all the way from tee to green. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 08/08/2021
-
5th, par-5. The driving zone is relatively open, but your second may cross the stream and must be precise. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 08/08/2021
-
16, par-5, 498. Terrific hole that encourages you to slam a driver and another long club on the second. Hittable in two, for some. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 08/08/2021
-
18, par-5, 570. On the second shot, the fairway’s safe side is the right, which better opens up the green. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 08/08/2021
-
Another view of 18. As classic as the Tillinghast holes on the front side. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 08/08/2021

Good but needs better care
I’ve always loved the layout here. And hadn’t played it in a couple of years. It’s pretty for sure, and there have been some improvements regarding eye appeal. But the greens are notoriously slow. And a couple of them are in tough shape. T boxes need help too. They should be dead flat and with good grass cut close. The fairways are OK but the grass is so so mix of stuff and should be better for a Fairway. The cart paths are in rough shape and one is washed out in part—dangerous. It’s a par three that overlooks a pond. That said, you can still enjoy the course because you get to use a lot of different clubs. And the price is right.

Very nice golf course
For the lack of rain the course was in great shape. Tiffany keeps the course in good condition despite the time of year and weather. The bartender, Ruth, was very friendly and went above and beyond. We will absolutely be returning.
