Winter golf, yes please!

Plays better in the dead of winter than many public courses do in the middle of summer. Big thanks to the staff for keeping course playable.

Quick Nine

Course was in good shape. The T-boxes can be tough, but it’s because there have a lot of trees which doesn’t allow for a lot of sunlight. The green were in good shape.
Overall, the place is close by and a fair price to get some good practice.

Terrible overpriced

Came up to Boston for a round with old friends and booked this on golf now. Figured for $50 it should be a decent course. Nope. Terrible conditions. Slow af. No cart girl. 9 holes only.

Not for beginners

Took my girlfriend out for her first 9 holes, booked a 1030 slot on a Monday figured it would be a relaxing time to play a round at, I was wrong. First hole not even to the green and ppl yelled are you gonna take all day, we did our best to keep a pace up dident complete holes, 2 put max, on the 6th hole after our drives, bob, an employee, drove up to us and was extremely rude, telling us that it’s a 15 min max per hole( mind you we were doing that pace already) then proceeded to tell my girlfriend that she was using the wrong club while she was lined up, a 3wood on a par 5 , don’t see a problem with that, left right after that interaction, spoke with the GM who was nice and offered us another round on the house, but all in all don’t go here if your trying to play a nice relaxing game of golf, I guess they think a causal Monday at 1030am is tournament time, might never return.

Great conditions,

Unicorn stayed open all winter and the course still looks great. Dennis and his staff are very professional and the course is a very good value. 6 miles from Boston. Can't be beat.
