Serene course in the mountains

Nestled in the hills of Somers is this well kept gem of a course. Very challenging as there are some very tight fairways. Great course to play will definitely come back the next time I'm in town.

Nice Course - tight

Somers Pointe is a nice course but it is tight and mostly doglegs. Some cool elevation changes as well.You need to be able to hit 180-200 yard consistently to get around. Always in great shape and pace is fine. Staff is always friendly. Nice bar and grill as well.

Needs improvement

Played this course several times in the past and always liked it. However, it is in dire need of some serious improvements, course and in general. Tee-boxes in very poor shape, greens dirty and not kept up. Really sad to see this very nice course going down.

A real stinker was the soda and candy bar bought from the cart on the course. Soda was expired - no joke - Sept 2015. Explanation given was that new management has taken over and works through existing stock. Got my money back and apologies from cart lady, new management couldn care less. Won't go back until things are addressed.

Tough but fair

Need to play this course a couple of times. Fast greens, blind landing spots. Once you have played it next time around should be easier

This course has soewhat features.

It is not easy course for beginners. Narrow fairways, elevated greens, etc. Watch the woods on the sides in each holes. Packing an extra balls in case is recommended.

Very Tight Layout With A Lot of Blind Shots.

I decided to book a round at this course with co workers because of the reasonable price ($40.00) on a Sunday, midday. We took the hour trip, and if you have never played this course before, you will have no idea where the hole goes and where you need to place your shot. A yardage book would have definitely come in handy. The course seemed dead, as there was hardly any golfers and staff there.

So in conclusion, the golf carts were awful, the course conditions were not terrible,, and it i's easy to get lost on this course. For the price, it really was not a bad day.

Somers Pointe

Challenging course that is narrow but plays wider than it appears. Hard to judge distances the first time out so a driver may be too much on some holes. Greens get very interesting on final 10 holes.

Course Layout Doesn't Make Sense

Title of my review says it all. A lot of blind shots that frankly don't make sense. This course is one of those where you mostly leave the driver in the bag. Accuracy is rewarded with many narrow fairways. The fairways and greens are in good shape, though. I would say about half the bunkers were in good shape. Greens very fast too!

Sad state

I found the course lacking some tlc. The greens need some repair, probably the worst I've seen this year. Sand traps were very bad on some hole , no sand just hard pan. Sorry I chose this course for my father and son outing for Father's Day. Will not play there again.

Tightest fairways in the land.

This is a great course, but incredibly challenging. They've put a lot of capital into the course in the past year or two and its starting to show. The fairways are narrow and often sloped, either side of which is perhaps a small rough, and then woods. On many of the holes; if you hit the woods, your ball is lost. Most bunkers have been completely redone, prior posts mentioned them as terrible (and they were at the time). Fantastic pro for lessons. Members tend to be older.

Hope they fix it up and price it realistically. It could be a nice place.

Polite staff. Decent greens. Landscaping around the clubhouse, restaurant and parking lot in need of cleanup. Also many of the bunkers in poor condition. Not a good value as is. Hilly, narrow and short.
