    Casual range for the casual golfer. Ice cream and mini golf right there - a nice way to introduce your family to the sport.

    Don't ever, ever, ever go or use the banquet facilities! Yep you read that right! We just had our…read more50th class reunion there on September 7th, 2024. The bartenders were stealing from the bar. I went to the bar and ordered a vodka and club. I watched him pour the club in first to the top and then sprinkled a few drops of vodka over it. I questioned and told him I saw what he did, and he took the drink back and wouldn't serve me the rest of the night. Other people were charged $21 per drink when in fact, the drink was $10. Another's husband went back to the bar 3 times because no liquor was in the drink. My brother was charged 3 different prices for the same brand of beer. Very, very unprofessional, and no customer service skills. When the bartender was questioned by other guests as to why he wouldn't serve me, he told them that I was rude and he could give me a breathalyzer. How embarrassing for me at my 50th when that would've been my second drink.

    This is a secret little gem. I typically play 18 hole courses in the Farmington Valley (private and…read morepublic). A co-worker took me to Grassmere a few years ago for a round of golf with me being the only one that plays regularly. It is not a well thought out track, in fact 6,7, and 8 are a bit tight and confusing. It is fun. I will also say it is in great condition. Compared to places like Copper Hill (E Granby), Edgewood (Southwick MA) or Airways (Suffield) it is the same quality, tighter and maybe more fun! It is only 9 holes but it is a gem.

    I've been to many golf courses, and I can honestly say I've never had an experience like this…read morebefore. The course itself was in terrible condition it was muddy unkept, and overall felt dirty and neglected. On top of that, the atmosphere was extremely unwelcoming. What frustrated me the most was the clear double standard with the dress code. When I arrived, I was told AS A WOMEN! to put on a sweatshirt over my outfit, even though there were multiple men on the course wearing t-shirts with no collars and JEANS! I've never been singled out like that at any other golf course, and it felt unfair and unnecessary. The people playing the course were not nice either. Between the poor course conditions, rude treatment, and inconsistent enforcement of rules, I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone. There are plenty of other courses that are cleaner, more professional, and respectful to all their guests.

    Interesting name, solid public golf course. A good, bare-bones playing experience…read more Our round started walking past a group of older guys parked in the dirt and gravel parking lot cracking multiple cans of Bud Light from the cooler in the back of a truck at 11:30 in the morning. I've never pregamed for golf, but it looked like fun. In any case, you'll park in the lot near the back 9. What's stopping you from starting you game on whatever hole that is? Nothing really, beyond a sign that says go to the golf shop to pay. So, like the nice, law-abiding citizen you are, you will walk across the street to the golf shop to check in. Beyond that, just...go? We still had 9 minutes before our "tee time" but nobody was on 1, and nobody told us to wait...so we just went. We played the front 9, and I found two of those holes to be fairly challenging - in that my ball went in a direction other than intended on one, and plopped itself in the secret lake that's just over the hill on the...7th? Whichever one plays straight back towards the pro shop. If you see an orange Callaway, that'd be me. For a public course I'd say it was pretty well kept. The general geography of the course makes it prone to moisture retention, so you are bound to hit that random soggy spot in the grass that one would only expect after a hard rain. Cheap. Golf. Relatively open schedule and easy to book a tee time not too far in advance. No real frills beyond that, and definitely no expansive 19th hole. But hey, sometimes - the simpler the better. COVID stuff: It's golf, so just mind your distance. I went here a month ago and we walked the course, but I think there was some sort of restriction on cart sharing. The golf shop was closed (operating through a window) a very limited food menu was being served to-go only. I imagine at this point it's loosened up a bit more.
