Mink Meadows is gentle golf—no tricks, no crazy layouts—just straightforward, island golf the way it should be. It’s a 9-hole course with an 18-hole offering thanks to alternate tee boxes that keep the round fresh the second time through.
The course is bordered by woods, so if you’re prone to a slice or fade, bring a full box of balls. It’s forgiving off the tee in spots, but errant shots can disappear quickly. As an 11 handicap, I shot a 41 on the front 9 and left feeling pretty good.
Hole 3 was my favorite—there’s a slight elevation change and the pin placement can turn a simple approach into a thoughtful challenge. It’s a standout without trying too hard.
Before your round, you can hit the putting green and a small bunker for warm-up. Just a heads-up: the carts don’t have phone chargers, so come prepared. I chose to walk, while my playing partner rode—and honestly, it’s such an easy course to walk that I’d encourage others to do the same if they can.
Last but not least - a women's bathroom with a FULL LENGTH MIRROR. I've been in countless women's bathrooms at golf clubs and there isn't a full length mirror. That earned a star all by itself 😂🙌
Overall, Mink Meadows is casual, scenic, and a great representation of Vineyard golf. The staff is awesome and the people who play there make it even better. Everyone is out there to enjoy the game and the island life.

Really well kept when I visited in mid September. Greens were fast and consistent. There aren’t any water features which could make this course more interesting, but also made it feel unique. The longer par 3s are not forgiving, but the wide open par 5s give some room to make up for that

Lovely 9 hole golf course that plays 18, the tees have two setting so that hole 1/10 will play differently. The practice area although small is well maintained. The employees are very friendly and welcoming. Highly recommend
