Zero complaints

Other than Mother Nature making it rough with 25 mph winds it was a great time saw maybe 3 other groups out the whole time felt like we had the course to ourselves, greens rolled true and smooth fairways were maintained overall great course

Fabulous Greens

First time playing here. Nice course. Front and back nines present quite a bit differently. A few quirky Nicklaus design features, like an illogical bunker in the middle of the second shot landing area on number 7, but overall a solid design. Fairways and tees in good shape. Bunkers well maintained (and soft!). Greens were truly exceptional - smooth, true, consistent, and fast - felt like they were running 11-12. A real pleasure to play on them. Nice course - recommended!

Greens areated.

Greens were hairy. Was not told ahead of time greens had been recently areated and very unpredictable. Would have waited. Otherwise course was great as usual.

Hot and Humid

Greens rolled well but are starting to show some stress. Tees and fairways good and rough is thick but fair. Only issue was slow foursome on the back side that thought they were the only ones on the course and had the whole 9 backed up.

The staff is super friendly and welcoming. The grounds crew is doing an excellent job. Even during the protection phase, when the greens get a little longer, the greens are in really good shape. They aren’t laser fast, but they are true and smooth. Course is in great shape.

Best Kept Secret

Thanks to the golf now app I found this course for my group of four to play! We’ve played the Tangelwood courses and all the other courses in the area but never Salem Gleen. We were pleasantly surprised. What a great find and an awesome course to play. One we’d love to play again sometime! Impressed!

Course is in great shape, greens are rolling true. Sand traps are white and the fairways are plush. Staff is friendly. This is a must-play course if you are in the area.

Worst experience I’ve ever had on a golf course

I had the worst experience I have ever had at a golf course. The Assistant Superintendent was extremely aggressive towards me and my playing partner. He was using profanity and acted as if he wanted to have a physical altercation. My playing partner had to call the pro shop and request someone meet us on the 3rd hole to intervene. We were told to stop by the pro shop at the turn and we would be refunded for the round of golf. Once we got to the pro shop, one of the gentlemen seemed to think we had provoked this guy and should share some of the blame for his actions. I can't even wrap my head around what we experienced today. We elected to cut our round short after 9 holes as we were still shaken from our encounter on the 3rd hole and simply did not feel welcome at this point. Upon leaving the pro shop to return the golf cart a gentleman met us outside and seemed to be sincere and his apology for the Assistant Superintendent's behavior was appreciated. I don't want to say I will never return to this course as the facility seemed nice, but this experience will stick with me for a long time, and I do not plan to return in the foreseeable future.

Doing better

Although this course used to be one of my favorites, It has gone through some trying times.
As of the date I last played this course, they are doing much better.
Still the hazards remain poorly marked if marked at all, ground under repair is not marked at all, some holes ( other than par 3's) remain cart path only, which is a problem for some of us with mobility limitations, sand traps had not been raked for a couple of days. We were not made aware of any these conditions upon checking in, I thought you should be made aware of these problem areas.
All in all, I think they are doing better, yet could be doing much better.
