A Pleasant Outing 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Updated: Played on:Aug 28, 2016 Played the course:once

Pros:

The course is a 9 hole course spread about the town's recreational outdoor space and borders the library. The drives and fairways are very open, with a couple tricky hole locations. On contrast to many of the New England forest-filled courses that don't allow one to "open up", this course has several holes which allow long drives to occur. What's more, aside from tunnel shots, a variety of basic shots are required on this course, which suits a beginner such as I quite nicely.

The cost is free- always a plus.

There is a diner within walking distance that is fantastic to go to before/after a round or two!

Cons:

I'm not a fan of citing any cons for places- everywhere has its own character. I would like to comment on cons that have been posted though, and perhaps provide a solution.

No directions from one hole to the next tee box to the next hole has been a recurring theme. Solution: walk around, get exercise, find where there is the painted tee area.

The tee areas are painted on- but remember, this is a public recreational area- having a permanent wood/cement slab in the middle of where people may want to play softball/football, etc, doesn't seem like a good idea.

Other Thoughts:

This is certainly a great course to get your basic shot practice on, as well as air out some big drives that are not as common in the New England area. The town is full of other things to do, as well as nearby delicious places to eat. Enjoy.
