Somers National Golf Club

Very good course. Extremely narrow and hilly, not recommended for beginners. The layout is very interesting, with plenty of difficult lies.

Some greens are poorly designed, with way too much slope. The greens are not very fast, which is rather good given the excessive slope on some of them.

They should really switch from gas powered to electric carts.

Overall an excellent course.

I played last weekend with three friends, fluctuating between 8-12 handicap. The course wasn't particularly challenging, but it has got to be the most abysmal layout of any course I've played. Just about every hole you're hitting blind tee shots and then another blind approach shot. We had to be constantly driving up to watch each others shots. The course is not that long, but very rare to have any true birdie opportunities. I think we only used our driver twice on the whole round. Consistently using 6 irons off the tees. Tee boxes need some help, too.

I wanted to like this course, but after about 10 holes we realized the layout wasn't going to get any better. I'm all for a hard golf course, but this layout made the course honestly not fun to play. Rarely do I leave a golf course and think that I didn't have fun, and somehow this course left all four of us with that taste in our mouths. For what we paid, I'd choose a hundred other courses before returning here.

This is a challenging track.The people I have been paired . You cannot enjoy the game because you are paired with other people, which is not pleasant to be playing with someone you do not know and who have different interests. this should be optional. You pay to enjoy your day. the game does not progress further by the paired players. it takes the same time. Also, they are not allowed to start playing even 5 minutes before even though there is nobody playing. the club house staff and the checking booth are very rude.

improving this would be a perfect place to enjoy the game. The prices are reasonable and the ground is beautiful.

The staff was very rude, the ranger was constantly telling us to move forward (when we started 25 min after our selected tee time and we were waiting at the first hole) the ranger was all over us. The male who gives the carts was very rude and made a few snippy comments for no reason. Overall I liked the course alot it was a tight course but the staff was insanely rude.

I played here even after reading the reviews. Obviously they were all correct. The course is short, driver is rarely if ever needed even on the par fives because they are heavy dog legs. Not my favorite course to play it’s tight with trees lining both sides of the fairways not that far off.

Staff was friendly.

This course was in terrible condition, most specifically the tee boxes and greens. We regularly were hitting from up in front of the box markers because the designated ares.

Tee boxes are in need of repair. Good place for a practice round

This is an excellent golf course, but not for beginners or wild hitters. It is extremely narrow and hilly. The layout is absolutely beautiful.

The greens are not always consistent. Some of them are excessively steep, especially on the back nine, to the point of being unfair.

I wish they used electric carts rather than these noisy and smelly gas powered ones.

But overall a very good experience.

Walked the course the other day and was very happy with everything about this place. As advertised course is narrow and very windy. Few holes to hit the driver but if you aren’t confident in it good luck… most of the course was in very good condition. The greens were fast and challenging but consistent. The ranger was pushing our pace even though there was nobody behind us for two holes which got to be a bit annoying but other than that everybody was great. I will definitely be coming back again soon. Very unique course that offers a different sort of challenge!

Conditions speak for themselves. I suggest that you don’t play Somers just due to the greens and tee boxes

Did not play well myself. Could not download GPS on my phone. Course has change names Plus switch front and back nine but could never register anything to come close to the right yardage. GPS on the cart was better at pushing advertisements then giving the correct yardage. Absolutely terrible cart GPS. Most greens are very fast but had a lot of bad spots on them. Very tight. I would love to come back another time if I could download proper yardage on my phone or if the cart GPS was updated. Absolutely beautiful day, but other than the GPS and the carts being terrible there was no printout of the golf course on the golf score card. Very frustrated especially when I was not hitting well. Hit a beautiful drive on the 18th hole but did not realize the pond came out further than what you could see from the tea box. Even the gentleman that was playing with me at knew the course that that was a excellent shot. I saw it found three times but must have gone right into the pond. Would have been much better if I could have actually got yardage from the GPS on the cart without so many freaking advertisements.

I want to like this course. The people are great and it is clear that the ownership has invested in the course - rebuilt several tee boxes. But the course remains average because it was architected around condo units. I golf here because of the great rates. The front nine is below average and circumvents the condo units on the high ground - therefore despite great shots, uphill and downhill lies are plentiful - especially on #2, #6 and #7. The back nine is much better..
