Goose Pond Colony

I had a great time playing this course with my son. Course was in great shape and pace of play was fantastic. Awesome value for the money. Terrific layout from all tees. Generous fairways, smooth putting surfaces. A nice variety of holes make this course challenging from the back tees and enjoyable for beginners as well.

Always a treat to play!

As always I enjoyed my round. The fairways are in great shape. The greens were full of sand and as a result putting was a challenge. Otherwise good!

First Time Playing

Super fun course, great layout!!

This was my first time playing here. I pick a new course every year for my birthday round and I have heard good things about this course for years. It’s a really fun course! It’s forgiving enough for a beginner to play but also is challenging for the experienced player who wants to score. I’m a 7 handicap and definitely had to think my way around. I can only describe it as fun. My wife came along for her second round ever and was also very pleased at how she was able to keep the ball in play and enjoy the round. Obviously she picked up several times but not out of frustration. We both really enjoyed it. The greens could be in a little better shape if I wanted to be picky but I’d really have to be being picky. They were a 7.5 out of 10 and for the most part they rolled true and we’re very consistent. The fairways were in excellent shape and the staff are friendly. I would recommend this course to anyone looking to have an excellent golfing experience with beautiful views and a fantastic course!!

Great Value Good Quiet Course off the beaten path

Enjoyed my round. Only issue at all is the hardness of the tee boxes. Other than that, me and the trees had a great time.

Course is in very good shape. Only bit of advice that I could give is to put some water on the greens. They are very firm and a bit on the grainy side for my taste.

Good once again

Played the course for the second time this season;this time the fairways weren’t dormant. Love the layout and the course offers challenges for all levels.

Fairways were just a bit hairy but in really good condition. Greens were fast and tee boxes were in great shape.

Playing on a very windy day like we did makes this course all you want from a length standpoint.

My only issue is I wish they offered more as far as pro sho, clubhouse and restaurant go but I will still be back. Excellent value with a GolfNow tee time.
