Frequently Asked Questions
Which course should I play at Lyman Orchards- the Jones or the Player?
You've got two great options here, but they offer distinct experiences. The Robert Trent Jones Sr. course is a classic parkland layout with tree-lined fairways and strategic bunkering, demanding precision. The Gary Player course, on the other hand, feels more open and links-style, with rolling terrain and dramatic elevation changes that make for a really fun, challenging round.
When is the best time of year to play at Lyman Orchards for the full experience?
We highly recommend visiting in late summer or early fall- think late August through October. Not only are the course conditions typically fantastic, but you'll also get to enjoy the full orchard experience with apple picking, fresh cider, and stunning fall foliage as your backdrop. Spring is also beautiful with everything in bloom, but the fall colors are truly special here.
Beyond golf, what else can I do at Lyman Orchards, especially if I'm bringing family?
Lyman Orchards is much more than just golf; it's a destination. You absolutely must visit the Apple Barrel farm market for fresh produce, baked goods, and their famous apple cider donuts. Depending on the season, you can pick your own fruit, explore the corn maze, or just enjoy the beautiful New England scenery.
How challenging are the courses at Lyman Orchards for a mid-handicapper?
Both courses offer a fair test for a mid-handicapper, but the Player course generally feels a bit more demanding due to its significant elevation changes and more exposed, windy conditions. The Jones course is more forgiving off the tee but still requires smart shot placement into its well-protected greens. You'll definitely use every club in your bag on either course.
What should I expect to pay for a round at Lyman Orchards, and is it good value?
Green fees at Lyman Orchards typically range from $60-$100, depending on the day of the week and time of year. We consider it excellent value for the quality of golf you get- two well-maintained, distinct courses in a beautiful setting, plus the added bonus of the orchard amenities. It's a full day experience that feels like a real getaway without breaking the bank.
