Good course layout, but the conditions were that of a $20 muni. Played in late August after 4 days of rain, but the muni that I normally play was in 10 times better shape. It was disappointing and I don't plan on going back, especially for that price

Fine

I plyed Mansion Ridge about 2 weeks ago and was pretty dissapointed. The layout is nice and some of the holes are intresting. The par 5's require precise shot management if you want any chance of making birdie or par. The greens were terrible. Very bumpy and very slow. The practice green is a good indicator of the greens you will be putting on but is in much better condition. You really have to pound the ball to get it to the hole.

Customer service was fine.

I thought the layout was typical Nicklaus design... Marsh, Tee shot carry's, great landscaping, etc. etc... A few blind shots off the Tee boxes, (but a yardage book is available from the pro shop. I had a sky caddie so figuring out distance wasn't a problem for me. Greens rolled very true, but not as fast as I thought they would have been. The par 5's seem to be all risk/reward type situations... PLACEMENT, PLACEMENT, PLACEMENT!!! If you place the ball you can score well. My first time playing the course, I shot a 76. I play to a 2 Handicap. I would def. play again!

Customer Service

Nice people working in the pro-shop. The ranger was very friendly.

beauiful rustic location

poor condition for May/June

We had a 10am tee time on Memorial Day wknd 2004 and we found the fairway littered and the greens slow & bumpy. MR is a challenging mountain layout with many blind shots. The course plays especially difficult as: 1. they do not offer a course guide or hole map at the tee-box; and 2. the yardage markers sometime are hard to find. (Note that we did not have an experienced player in our 4-some.)

Customer Service

Bad - they did not know that I pre-paid $85 for discounted tee-times and tried to charge me for regular $140+ greens fee. Good - the manager took care of that and gave me a return play coupon for 1 missing player. They also paired us up to make a 4 some.

Member hit off grass on the range and non-member can only hit of the mats...what gives?!

Interesting layout. Beware of hazards on the fairways. You may need to lay up more than once.. or twice... on par 5 with the hazards. I lost two of my proV's in the hazards.. killed my score. The greens are nice.. rolls nicely. Back nine was more fun than front.

Greens fun to shoot at - bunkers enough to scare you into bailing out

Pace of play - yardage book is a must have for first timers but clubhouse didn't recommend - no coffee in clubhouse is a bit ridiculous for a 7am tee time

Nice routing - uphill holes on back nine like Poconos Golf. Greens roll fair but mediocre condition. Autumn views must be stunning.

Half way house was open - at least they had coffee!!!

great conditions. Great role on the greens. Course fits any skill level with its 5 tee areas. Challenging, but pleasant especially the back nine, and the last challenging hole

great customer service. Club pro Lucas Sirois is a great pro, good guy and great player

range maybe a bit to small

Great layout and design, beautiful scenery, 1 hour from NY.

Slow play on back nine. No rangers in sight. Had to call clubhouse to send a ranger to prod slow players. Expensive on weekends.

Great layout and design. Eases you in with 5 links style open holes, the fun starts on 6. Great back nine and finishing hole. Greens very puttable, no ridiculous undulations for a mountain course.

Its a decent course, challenging and well laid out.

Need I say again, but the conditions were not acceptable for a course of this caliber.

Played this course in early August and was mightily dissappointed. The greens were pock marked with more ball marks than a Jersey municipal course. Granted this is the fault of negligent players, I was not expecting this after having paid 130 bucks.

Customer Service

Nothing special.

Driving range is too small.

The ambience, course layout, free driving range ( my wife, who left me for a shopping spree at the nearby Woodbury Common was very graciously allowed to hit a bucket as well)

Maybe they were short on staff this particular day, but the crowd on the 1st tee was quite unusual for this caliber of course.

Very pleasantly surprised by this accessible course; only about 1hr:15 from lower Fairfield County. The course was very challenging, especially the way I hit (mis-hit?) the ball! The course was well-maintained. My playing partners and I had the feeling that on one recent Thursday PM, they might have overbooked. We didn't tee off until about 20 minutes past our stated tee time. Compounding this was the fact there was not a ranger in sight for the full 4:45 that it took to complete the round. But I'm quibbling.

One minor complaint: I could've sworn that a golfer in an adjoining fairway hit my STRATA. I guess I shouldn't have been in his fairway in the first place!
