In summary

Nahant Golf Club is appreciated for its well-maintained greens and affordable pricing, offering a challenging experience with its mostly par 3 layout. The staff, particularly in the restaurant and bar, are frequently praised for their friendliness and service. However, some visitors have noted issues with fairway conditions, drainage, and signage, as well as occasional slow pace of play and limited parking.

Been here once a year ago and I wasn't pleased at all, but returned this Friday and the service was amazing! The food was subpar, but our waitress Lucia was incredible!!! She made us feel comfortable, welcomed and we were extremely well taken care of. Will definitely be returning in hopes to see Lucia again!

Well maintained course that consists of mostly par 3 holes. The greens are probably amongst the most difficult that i have played- small in size and often with pins placed at the apex of the greens. That said, the greens themselves were well maintained, as was the course itself in general. Can’t really beat the price either. All in- a good course to practice your chipping and putting.

Nice little out of the way 9 hole course that was OK to play but needs better signage to direct first time players on where the holes are. Has some real long par 3s to start and then you hit a group of standard length par 4s before finishing with still another long par 3. Some of the greens are capped so don’t be long with your putts on those that are. Reasonably priced at $40 on a Sunday afternoon with cart. Unless you can really crush your 3w bring your big stick for a few of the longer par 4s Yo!

HIGHLY recommend! What an amazing place in an amazing location, walking distance from the ocean. The course is well maintained and a fun challenge. Clubhouse is incredible and the food is OUT OF THIS WORLD. The Pro Shop has everything you need; from hats, polos, drinks, ice cream, golf balls and so much more. And don’t forget to see Archie, the course bulldog! You will not regret your time here.

Greens were well maintained. The condition of fairways were poor. The fairways were like rough grass due to poor maintenance. Also, the fairways were poorly drained so lots of puddles. It was a 9 hole course that consists of mostly par 3 holes with few par 4 holes. Affordable course to play.

Nice little course, great views of nahant. Its a nice piece of land amd they do a pretty good job with upkeep. Could be in better shape but its a short 9 hole course to work on your irons, greens are small and hard but its good little course and rarely busy, so you can practice and hit a few balls.

I am from out of town. Friday some good friends took me to this new restaurant to try it out. All of us have been in the service business at some time. We acknowledged the wait staff were sparse and not very experienced, we were extremely patient so no big deal. The food arrived and one chicken dish appeared under cooked. We asked that it be taken away and replaced with a burger, again no big deal. A few minutes later, the chef came out, and addressed us saying (in a tone), saying that it was not under cooked, but a vein in the chicken, either way unappetizing. The point being, I have thought…

First time Yelp review! I was not expecting much from this course but it sure did not meet sub par expectations (no pun intended). Course is pretty brutal to be charging +40 for 18 and a 25 dollar cart fee (would love to see the pros house). Pace of play is terrible for a course that’s under 2000 yards. Regardless I could care less but when we made the turn after our 3 hour 9 hole round we decided we wanted to pack it up. When we asked for a refund for the back 9 we were told that “new policy states there are no refunds for people who pay for 18 but decide to only play 9” and were directed to…

It was an early Saturday morning and I googled golf courses near me and this place popped up. I showed up as a single and was immediately taken care of. Although the tee boxes are a bit spotty and the fairways look like they may not drain too well, this course is a hidden gem. It's a challenging little course with incredibly tough, yet immaculate greens which will put your putting game to the test. The only real complaint I'd have is there are no yardage markers, so bring a (laser) range finder. The entire staff are super nice and the bar/restaurant is a priority after playing because the drin…

Small 9 hole golf course, 6 holes are par 3, 3 are short par 4s. Has good potential, greens are amazing (fast and true) but the fairways are horrible - water logged and full of mud (but in all fairness, it has been raining a lot last week). Next to the ocean, but there are no water views.

Good little course nice greens but hard. Got stuck behind a slow 4 ball and no time management as usual. 3 stars be 4 if they kept players on pace. restaurant wasn't bad
