Short and outdated by today’s standards if the wind is calm. However, this is a course I could play every single day for the rest of my life and never get bored. The whales breaching off the back of the 18th green doesn’t suck either.

Absolutely can’t recommend this course enough if you’re looking for a great fall golf experience in New England. I’ve played here last few years in October and it’s been a great experience, skip the summer rates and get out here when the foliage is prime!
