Cape Cod Golf at Cranberry Valley

You won’t have any trouble finding a golf course on Cape Cod. With more than twenty public courses on the Cape itself, Cape Cod is high on the list of dream vacation destinations for golfers from all across the country.

What makes Cape Cod such a prime golf destination isn’t only the number of courses, but also the wide variety of designs and challenges offered by the courses on the Cape. And, of all the courses available for vacationers to enjoy, one of the best representatives of the Cape itself would have to be Cranberry Valley Golf Course in Harwich.

Marked with kettle holes, bogs and scrub oaks this challenging par 72 course is an enjoyable test for golfers of many different skill levels. Cranberry Valley is a course that isn’t conquered by simply putting your drive in the fairway and putting well. The course challenges you to think about your second shot as well and consider distance, shape and green slope and size. It constantly keeps you working from the moment you address the ball on the tee to the moment you watch it drop in the hole.

By the time you reach the 530 yard double dog leg par 5 eighteenth, Cranberry Valley will have required you to use every part of your game. Then you will simply have to hit two or three decent shots and a solid pitch into the flower bordered deceptively difficult green and you have played a round of golf that will likely have produced a number of good stories for the nineteenth hole.

The course has also undergone a number of renovation projects over the last few years and is always in good shape. With a new state of the art watering system the course condition is closely monitored and variables like the thickness of the rough, that can vary greatly on some courses, are better controlled.

When you have finished your round turn you scorecard over and on the back you will find the Cranberry Valley motto. It reads “When you tee it up, the course is yours. Enjoy it!” and you can be assured, you will have.
