Is there any courses right now in MA, Northern CT, or Northwestern RI open right now. I have a winter break in school and really wanted to go out a play a round... anywhere.

All of the courses here in Western MA are closed! The weather is warm and the snow is melting a little bit but no courses here maybe check a bit further down south?

Well my friend's dad said that sometimes courses down at the Cape are sometimes open year-round.

A lot of courses on the Cape are open year round. You can also check out Far Corners in Boxford and Lakeview (short course though) in Wenham. I think that Middleton's par three course on 114 is also open year round. I live on the south shore and we seem to have less snow on the ground than north of Boston though. Good luck!

if you're going to the cape play cranberry valley, its open year round. It is also an amazing course...so expect to pay alot.

I cant believe there are actually courses open year-round on the cape! You must have to play through a little snow?

Hate to say I told you so Sasquatch, but yeah you probably have to, and also they sometimes have temporary greens so you can't putt, but you hit into a circle before the green on the fairway. If your balls in the circle, they just say it's a two-putt. I'm not completely sure about this, but this is what I've heard.

I played 4 times this week at my golf coruse in Nahant. Its over by Lynn and Revere in the northshore. Its a little nine hole, i dont think it merits the hour+ ride from around worcester where you live, but if you're absolutley dying to play its an option. We get people from as far away as Whenham and Hamilton come to play. The Cape is a good option too. I usually go and play Ballymeade once or twice during the winter, which is a great course regardless of season. For you its how far are you willing to drive to play.

Just played Old Barnstable yesterday and shot an 80!

I think it's way too overpriced for this time of year, $58.00 with a cart or $40 to walk. I wont go back, but will try Hyannis Golf Club his week.

Remember, the cape usually gets rain when we get snow

Hey TC-Wenham and Hamilton are really not that far from Nahant. Coming from Worcester would be a totally different animal. I live on the South Shore and a ton of courses are now open for play. Of course I had to laugh when Easton Country Club asked me to pay $23 bucks to play 9 at 4:15pm last Saturday but I knew golf in New England was back!

    • First round at Quail Ridge: 47 + 47 = 94 *Note: It was 25+ mph winds with gust in the 35+ mph. It was also around 58 degrees. I felt like I was out in Oregon. The greens were very firm.  Driver was decent. It didn't cause me an issues.  Irons were the biggest issue. Just low point control was lacking. Mostly on the chunky side. Also, my irons were routinely 20-30 yards shorter than normal. Even on holes with a cross wind, the ball was just dying. We played an extra 9 holes after the first 18, and the wind died down by then. I stepped into a 9 iron, and it came up 15 yards short. I have no clue what is going on. I should not be hitting 9 irons 140 yards when I am hitting my driver 300 to 310 yards.  Warmup didn't give me much confidence. I just kept shanking every other iron shot. I didn't shank an iron during the round. I just felt all out of sorts today. Coordinate felt off.  yea, I have no idea if I am purposely slowing down my swing to feel my downswing piece. Again, I hit a decent 9 iron and lost 15 yards of carry. I hope this is just an off day.   
    • Day 565 - 2026-04-19 Wanted to get home to do some spring cleaning type stuff, so I practiced for about seven or eight minutes and got my butt home. Just backswing stuff, mostly, with freezers and a little downswing feel. Liking the new big mirror I have.

    • Day 22: played 18. Shot okay - 80 - but long game was bad. Saved by some good putting and short game. 
    • Well that's about the dumbest thing I've read today.
