Exceptional golf experience

Melrose CC offer an exceptional golf experience. The course offers a little bit of everything that you need to experience in order to improve you game. It has that membership felling for a public golf course. Unfortunately it is missing the bar and dinning experience after a round. The golf course itself is top in all departments.

A very challenging but playable course.

Really enjoyed the course. Melrose like so many other offered no off course amenities. Club house / lounge was closed no food service except cart girl port a pots or the bathroom in the cart garage.

Terrible pace of play and greens

Waited on every hole, they allowed a 2 some to go 20 mins early which set everything back. A 3 some was in front of us and behind that 2 some which was supposed to be with me. The starter said I should skip hole 1 and maybe 2 and go catch up with them due to his mistake. Completely ridiculous, have never been told that before and refused to do it. We waited about 5 mins at every tee box and the greens were terrible. Course has a good layout and could be a great value if a little maintenance was done and the starter did his job.

Nice but challenging

Had a nice round of golf at Melrose. Used to be. Country club years ago and now open to public. Course is not easy as the course has a natural layout with hills, slopes, etc. and a couple of blind tee shots as well. Would definitely play here again,!
