This course is lined with trees and overlooks the city of Boston. The greens on this course are small and fast, and the fairways are average-sized. Sand bunkers are spread throughout the entire course and water hazards come into play on many holes. The course's signature hole is #15, a 158-yard, par 3, requiring a tee shot over a pond to a small green. The terrain on this course is hilly, and there are many spectacular views available.

Don't be fooled!, May 07, 2007

reviewer: Anonymous from Anonymous

Low handicaps beware, this Donald Ross masterpiece cannot be judged from the 6000 yd scorecard. Greens from hell! my parner exclained, and the member in our 4some just laughed. Lots of local knowledge needed. Similar to its cousin, Pinehurst No 2, fast grees protected by bunkers. Good short game a must. Layout is purported to be unchanged since Ross left in 1910... the old Scott's 1st design in the US shows his signiture mid fairway bunkers and "ladies assist "ramp" in front of most greens. Its a short track, but you use everything in your bag. Pins only visible on 6 holes!

When I first saw this course, I thaught it was subpar. But from the first tee, to the view of boston on the ninth, the water on fifteen, or the beautiful clubhouse, I couldn't be more wrong. This is a challenging, hilly course that all will love.

Piney Valley Golf Course
"Not too bad"
This golf course offers an exersise of the mental game and practice on accuracy. This course is one of the nicest in the area. The front nine offers chances to let loose and holes to decide what club to hit. The back nine is more flat yet a bit more difficult due to the mind set of trying to reach in two. This course is not a five because easyness and choices of veggitation and is not a four because of it being on a military base ( security check gates) however for someone who doesn't want to travel an hour or two away its nothing to complain about.

"Great course at a great price."
With the beauty and challenge of Hickory Ridge you will not be let down by a round. Don't let the public park district course title discourage you because it doesn't play like one. Well worth a sunny afternoon.

Spring Creek Golf Course & Country Club
"The Club"
Spring Creek is a classic old valley course, it will be treelined fairways, your gonna have to move the ball off the tee, if you keep it out of the trees you will have a good round.
