This links-style course is a replica of a course back in Scotland. The design is unique in its strategy and playability. All holes incorporate bail-out areas with many including close-cut chipping areas around the greens. These allow recovery shots in the form of putting or chipping. The higher percentage shot is the one that is kept low and run onto the green. The course was built on rolling terrain with fairways that are narrow and open. Water hazards come into play on six holes, and sand bunkers are placed throughout the design. The greens are fairly large, flat and generally fast. The final hole, a 523-yard, par 5, plays into the wind and features a wetland crossing 150 yards short of the green. Study the green before you hit your approach shot. It appears easy due to no bunkers but is actually the most difficult green to hit in regulation. The green is completely surrounded by a chipping area, a proper send-off to your links-style round. The other tee shown is an additional men's tee. There are discounted green fees for city residents. A driving range opened in 1998. The 5,396-yard ladies' tee also has a men's course rating of 65.4 and a slope of 104.

Olde Scotland, Oct 28, 2004

reviewer: Robert O'Donnell from Mass

Long course from the back tees, large rolling greens in excellent shape, each hole varies from the next one.

Gotta Like Link style, Jun 29, 2004

reviewer: Lash from Fall River

This is one of those course where you cannot wander far off the short grass. There are plenty of areas of "native grasses" where you cannot retrieve your ball. Distances to greens are deceptive as there are few trees or landmarks to judge distance....trust the distance markers. Well maintained and not too pricey. Bring more than 3 balls with you!

One of the best in the south shore, Jun 19, 2004

reviewer: Big Steen Man from Avon, Ma

I loved this golf course. I am a semi-beginner. I've been playing for a few years but this is the 1st year i took golf seriously. I actually shot the best round of my life here (89) and that included 2 snowmen:( but this is a beautiful course and if you want to be sucessful you must keep it out of the rough because it is some of the thickest rough i've seen around this area. Greens have alot of slope to them. Semi-difficult course but a real challenge for beginners.
