convenient and fun 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Mar 15, 2012 Played the course:once

Pros:

Convenient! Finally a course near Boston/metrowest!
Good variety of shots
cool that it's at a college
Uncrowded

Hole 2 is fantastic with the detention basin, as well as 4 and 9 are great holes . If the stormwater basin near hole 4 and 5 filled up these would be bears of a shot!

Cons:

Some holes are a bit short
Ticks
No signs for par at each hole
Soccer fields hamper play

Other Thoughts:

Overall I can't complain, its in my backyard! Wasn't expecting much but I'm pleasantly surprised after my first visit, worth the drive if within half an hour or so definitely. If it was 18 holes it would be a destination for sure.
