Mill Pond Golf Course

Mill Pond Golf Course opened in 1999 on former flat farmland near Mill Road in Medford, in central Suffolk County. Buddy Johnson laid out three nine-hole courses, the North, West and East, and for a brief period in the early 2000s the facility operated as a 27-hole complex. By 2006 Mill Pond had closed and abandoned the East nine, and it has since operated as an eighteen-hole public course, at one point breaking in a new configuration in which the former 10th became the opening hole. The wide-open, wind-swept layout is presented in a links style reminiscent of classic Scottish courses and plays a pitch short of 6,000 yards from the middle tees. A driving range, putting green, teaching professional and clubhouse grill round out the facility.
