About

Holes 18
Type Semi-Private
Par 71
Length 6521 yards
Slope 130
Rating 71.7

Cold Spring Country Club is situated halfway between Springfield and Worcester. Opened in 2010 in an effort to bring world class golf to western Massachusetts, the club has since garnered a local following. The par-71 layout is unique in that it has six par 3s and five par 5s. There are also some par 4s in the 450-yard range. The 6,521-yard length indicated on the scorecard can be deceiving since it feels much longer when you're playing it. The golf course has plenty of variety, including dogleg lefts, doglegs rights, short holes, and long holes. Thanks to its mountaintop locale, Cold Spring C.C. offers stunning views that are as diverse as the holes. The vistas from the elevated tees and greens stretch to the Berkshires, Connecticut, and Vermont. From the golf course's highest tee box on the par-3 10th, you'll have a panoramic view of central Massachusetts.

Hilly course, tough to walk

The course is in good shape for this time of year, it is recovering well. This course is offered as a walking only for GolfNow, choose carefully, walking is a challenge as this site has lots of hills.

Great public course in very nice shape

So, I was supposed to be playing a Stroke Play tournament at a course in eastern Massachusetts and it was canceled due to tropical storm Ophelia. I was desperate to play a round, so I was looking at the weather trying to find a area with a window of no rain to play, Bingo I find A 7am tee time at Cold Spring (weather channel says no rain until 10 or 11)
I was the first golfer on the course and was amazed at the conditions, as I played my round, every green had been cut & Rolled, every bunker had been groomed (This on a day that was going to be washed out in 3 or so hours) ended up playing 18 in 2:42 & the raindrops started right after I got in my car
This course has a great variety of holes, short, long, tight & wide open, but always in nice shape. Beautiful scenery (especially when the trees start changing) , and their Pure White Sand in the bunkers is both visually appealing, but also has a very nice consistency when playing out of.
Looking forward to my next round here!

Lovely place to get away

The course offers a diverse set of holes that test each aspect of your game. 6 of each, par 3 4 & 5. The course is in excellent shape, my only complaint would be the tee boxes don't get much care in the way of making them soft enough for a tee. Quite a few hard spots. But the rest is beautiful. Lovely views over water, etc. And, bonus, there's a yellow labrador owned by the clubhouse guy that runs around the course saying hi to people all day. That made my day! For under 50 bucks you can't go wrong.

Beautiful course

Ive played a lot of courses in western Massachusetts and this one I always come back to. It’s a great course with a range of difficulty and some steep holes. Greens are well maintained and everything was cut down to where it needed to be. Definitely will be coming back

November Golf

Went to Cold Spring on November 3 Rd. Weather was fantastic, conditions of the course we're great. Fairways green and cut. Greens we're fast all consistent.
Best conditions I have ever seen there. Some funky golf holes , but a god course to play. Would recommend to play.
