Shabby chic
Shabby in most areas, some tees are a mess with rabbit holes and bunkers also.Strange layout with almost hidden greens

a new course for us
This was my first time playing Forrester Park. It started easy with straightforward level holes but as the round progressed there were a few holes where we couldn't see where the green was. At the 8th the green is behind a row of trees and on the 10th the fairway is on open ground shared with the 18th hole. Although they are separate fairways the slope of the ground and the "not very obvious" 10th green makes for uncertainty with new players.Reviewer Rating

Just a really strange layed out course. No exciting holes really. Greens are well kept, they are soft. Teeing areas are very shabby.

Very Enjoyable
Played previously as part of a society day and again on Monday as a greenfee. Really friendly club and course is in really good condition, seems to be getting better and better. Not the longest in the world but suits my game so will be back.Reviewer Rating

Brilliant Condition, a new favourite
Hadn't necessarily heard of the club but have played 4 times this year and have loved every visit. Greens have remained some of the best in Essex in all conditions and the rest of the course including the fairways is well kept. Some of the tees need some work, had some mats down in Winter. But would thoroughly recommend if you haven't been before.Reviewer Rating

Course is decent. Good to play occasionally. Overall on the short side. Was water logged at a few places after a few days of rain. I have played in the summer too, and the ball rolls for ages making the course even shorter.

Waterlogged. Cannot cope
Course was in a sorry state. There were a few days of rain prior but the drainage wasn't ideal. Very boggy for most of the round. Played here before, but it is a very short course.Reviewer Rating

Great condition for Autumn
Played in late October. Course in great condition. Front nine is ordinary, but layout improves on the back nine. Course is fairly open so wayward shots can be played from the adjacent fairway (unless OB). Clubhouse facilities are basic. Would play again.Reviewer Rating

Fantastic course in great condition
Brilliant course, offers a challenge to all standards of golfer. Plenty of trouble to be found if you stray from the fairways. The greens were in beautiful condition and played perfectly. Would definitely recommend visiting Forrester Park.Reviewer Rating

Nice little practice course
Good course to practice on. Good fairways given the condition. Some nice layouts of holes. Very forgiving roughs. As some holes are so closely packed, a mis-hit can be on a fairway.Down sides: short course, in particular a number of par 4s and 5s. Tee boxes were in poor condition, lots of seed/sand is down. Supposing considering very little play over the last year. Greens are rock hard,
