Metacomet Country Club, nestled in East Providence, Rhode Island, is a private 18-hole golf course steeped in history and golfing prestige. Established in 1901, this Donald Ross masterpiece underwent a redesign in 1926, transforming it into the challenging and captivating course it is today. With a par of 70 and stretching over 6,464 yards, Metacomet offers a diverse range of holes that cater to golfers of all skill levels. The course boasts meticulously maintained Bent Grass fairways and greens, providing a consistent and enjoyable playing surface throughout the year. Golfers can hone their skills on the driving range, practice their short game at the pitching and chipping area, perfect their putting on the dedicated green, and take advantage of the well-appointed banquet facilities.
Metacomet Country Club has garnered a mix of positive and negative feedback from golfers. While the course conditions consistently receive praise, with one player exclaiming, "Conditions of the course are great," and another lauding the greens for living up to their reputation, there are some concerns that cannot be overlooked. Several golfers expressed frustration with the close proximity of holes, resulting in balls flying in unpredictable directions. Additionally, the fast and undulating greens proved to be a challenge for older players. Despite these criticisms, many reviewers still highly recommend Metacomet Country Club, urging golfers to experience its charm before it potentially closes or undergoes redevelopment into housing.
Golfer Collective, a respected golf course rating system, provides valuable insights into the perceived value of Metacomet Country Club. While the course offers an undeniably enjoyable golfing experience, it falls short in terms of overall value. The private membership model and the associated costs may deter some golfers from experiencing Metacomet's allure. However, for those who can secure an invitation or membership, the course presents a worthwhile investment, offering a challenging and scenic round of golf.
