Pine Knoll

Pine Knoll is an 18-hole par-54 course measuring just 1,554 yards. There is no driving range. Every hole is a par 3, and the total yardage is short enough that most players will use only wedges, short irons, and a putter. This format makes it a pure short-game exercise and a quick round even for walkers.

The course is on Porter Road in East Longmeadow, in the Pioneer Valley south of Springfield. Economy pricing keeps it highly affordable. Pine Knoll is a strong option for beginners learning the game, juniors building skills, or experienced players looking to sharpen their iron play and putting. The season in this part of western Massachusetts generally runs from April through November.
