    It’s hard. Not overly memorable for most of the round until the final 3. It’s a solid take but gets a lot of play so don’t expect to be blown away but fairways and greens. Great practice area. Solid clubhouse. Fun finishing hole.

How we rank

This ranking uses published scorecard data from each course’s longest men’s tees, the same tee set for every course. Only 18-hole courses with a yardage for every hole, a total that matches the hole-by-hole sum, and a par between 54 and 80 are included, and the tees must carry a single slope rating (55–155) and course rating. Courses whose scorecard duplicates another course’s are left out until the data is fixed. Courses are ordered by slope rating, then course rating, then Course Vaults score. Only open courses with a published Course Vaults score (at least 5 explicit ratings) are eligible, and a page is published only when at least 5 courses qualify. City pages include courses within about 25 miles of Uxbridge, so nearby suburbs can appear. Rankings refresh about hourly.
