Reedy Meadow Golf Course

About Reedy Meadow Golf Course

This Lynnfield municipal track sits on some genuinely rolling terrain that gives you more elevation changes than you'd expect from a public course in this part of Massachusetts. The routing takes advantage of the natural contours well, with several holes playing uphill to elevated greens that can make club selection tricky if you're not paying attention to the wind. What strikes me most is how the course feels more secluded than it should given its proximity to Route 1 – once you're out there, the tree-lined fairways create a surprisingly peaceful round. The conditioning won't blow you away, but it's honest golf at a fair price, which is exactly what you want from a muni. The greens roll true enough, and the fairways give you decent lies most of the time. With a 3.5-star rating, you know it's not going to be pristine, but it's also not going to embarrass you if you bring guests. It's the kind of course where you can walk 18, work on your game without breaking the bank, and actually enjoy the experience – increasingly rare in the Boston area's inflated golf market.
