Course Highlights
This A.W. Tillinghast parkland design rewards strategic thinking with demanding fairway angles, well-bunkered greens, and a naturally contoured layout. Exceptionally friendly staff and strong value make this historic course a compelling repeat destination.

The fourth is a narrow driving hole that ends on this well-guarded green. Only 310 yards, this is the #5 index. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 05/24/2025
-
7th, par-4, 331: A typical Tillinghast green is of moderate size–like this one. A moderately difficult hole, but a good one. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 05/24/2025
-
The eighth is a par-4 of average difficulty, but missed shots still lead to trouble. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 05/24/2025
-
Ten, the #1 index, plays uphill over its 409 yards to a relatively small green. The large falloff behind this green can bring about short-game woes. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 05/24/2025
-
11th, par-4, 402: On this layout, Tillinghast’s holes retain their genuine parkland character, along with a classic aura not far afield from his famous courses. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 05/24/2025
-
The sixteenth: Ron Cultip set this excellent par-5 in an open area, making this 498-yarder a tempting opportunity for big hitters. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 05/24/2025
-
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.
