Rating Snapshot
About
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.

The scenery is spectacularly panoramic at several of the Cold Spring tees and greens. This is the first hole, a par-three. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 07/05/2022

A terrific par-5 of 490, the second demands good shotmaking to find this green safely. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 07/05/2022

The long tenth, a par-4, features an offset fairway and a tough approach to an elevated green site. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 07/05/2022

A long par-5, eleven features strong ground movement from tee to green. A beautiful and challenging hole. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 07/05/2022

Although modern, the course maintains a natural feel. Secluded, too, on some holes, such as the sixteenth. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 07/05/2022

Course playing time.
Course might want to invest in a ranger for men in two carts holding up three groups behind them three groups two group and three group other than that the course was great.

3 par 3s and 3 par 5s each nine
Was our second time playing this course, but first time was years ago. The course is laid out to be challenging for all players. The greens are in great shape. There were only 2 negatives. First, it was a nice Sunday in October, so the course was busy and pace was slow. Second, the restaurant was closed. Hopefully the course can find someone to come in and run a restaurant there.
armden1, thanks for the amazing review and for choosing Cold Spring Country Club. We hope to see you again soon!
Golf
The course n rates were ok. The course itself doesn’t include cart with hot deal so buyer be ware You’ll be adding some money to play. Still a good value

We hope to see you again soon!
Check it out.
First thing I’d like to comment on on the golf course is the conditions the greens are great and the fairways were very nice, there was vertacut in the fairways but it didn’t affect play. The tees were flat and had grass on them. Now as far as design goes it has some pretty good elevation changes making club selection Paramont, local knowledge would be helpful as the second hole is a blind tea shot on a par five. If you play well and can drive 240yrds many of the par fives are reachable . It’s not a long course but the design requires you to think a little before you try and slice one around the corner of a dog leg. A well placed lay up may still allow you to reach a par 5 in 2. Was an enjoyable day.
Thank you for your review, Lifes2shirt. We will pass along your positive experience to our team at Cold Spring Country Club. We look forward to seeing you again soon.

Worst layout I've ever played on
I've lived local to this course all my life and have never played on it until yesterday. I have eaten there when it opened many years ago- seemed very high end. I see why the first two owners have failed to get memberships. It was 100% the weirdest course I've played on. The layout is extremely strange, and awkward. The holes around the club house are like hiking a mountain how vertical they are. Also, there is a 185 yard par 4! The pin is at least 60 feet above your head. I dont see the current owners lasting very long.
A few goods: Well kept fairways/greens and sand was nice.

Nice track, somewhat forgiving. Excellent sand in the traps, nice flat teee boxes, greens run true.
Thank you for your review, u314159368916. We will pass along your positive experience to our team at Cold Spring Country Club. We look forward to seeing you again soon.
Nice course, horrible everything else
18 holes took 5:22. No rangers at all. No 19th hole, range. The two guys in the pro shop were more interested in there cells than the golfers waiting to pay. Quirky little course on the shorter side even from playing from the Blues. Even with a deal at $57 we all felt like it was still over paying. All I can say is “ you have been warned”

Fun layout!
This is my home course and I play it often. I play from the whites.
The course has lots of holes that can be difficult or easy with a good drive.
It is a challenging course to walk with some holes with a lot of elevation, especially #9 and #18.
9 is a fun hole it is a driveable par 4 that plays about 215-220 carry. The card lists it at 181 but it is straight uphill.
If you miss short of the green it will roll back 20-50 yards.
Hello, gOo6dLSK0GPvSkLdv8Fc. Thanks so much for taking the time to write a review. We're so glad that you enjoyed your round at Cold Spring Country Club. Please visit us again soon!
Hot Deal price is $43 for 18 holes. Price posted was $25… at Pro Shop they asked for $18 for the cart…
Nice course….. no food at all…. Kind Bars or candy bars… …. Although signs on course say call ahead for food at turn…
Price for 18 hole hot deal needs to be posted at $43. It’s not a walking course. Beautiful views…. Torn up greens but decent fairways and approach.
