Mill Pond Golf Course

Buddy Johnson's 1999 links-style layout on 200-plus acres, where the fescue plays as a hazard and every lake is lateral.

About Mill Pond Golf Course

Mill Pond is a links-style course in Medford, on more than 200 acres. William "Buddy" Johnson designed it and it opened in 1999. Think fescue and open ground, not a walk through the trees. Only 7 of the 18 holes are tree-lined. Course character from OpenStreetMap contributors' survey data.

The map data shows plenty of hazards: 73 bunkers across the course, water on six holes, and four forced carries over it. Six holes bend, three each way. Fescue is played as a hazard here, so a miss wide of the fairway can cost you a stroke. Club down off the tee if you're spraying it. Course character from OpenStreetMap contributors' survey data.

Audubon International recognizes the course for environmental excellence. The practice setup is solid: a short-game area, a practice bunker, a putting green matched to the course greens and a covered hitting area. There's also a simulator, and the Grill Room and terrace look out over the course.

It's one of 46 courses Yoink watches in the Long Island area, and the closest alternative is Middle Island Country Club, about 2 miles away — handy when your first choice is booked solid.
