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.

Interesting Course, Very good condition.

Played here last week with the Safari Club. Overall, a nice experience. Fairways and greens were in very nice condition. Some tee boxes were a little rough, because it doesn't appear that sprinkler system reaches them. Staff was very accommodating, and pace of play was very good. Would definitely play again.

Has Unmet Potential

Tee boxes terrible!

Many Fairways have thin grass & hard as rocks. Difficult to take divots.

Greens in overall good shape but some like cement.

Nice layout with potential to be very nice course BUT needs work.

A Safari Club Favorite!

Great track, with terrific views and a good variety of holes. The Pro and his staff do everything to make your experience top shelf. Don't forget to stop at the 19th hole too.

A Course worth playing

Recently played the course with the Safari Club and had a good time. Course was in good condition with several interesting holes to test all golfers. As usual the staff from pro shop to the kitchen were friendly and accommodating.

Safari golf

Even though it had rained many days before our outing, the course was pretty well drained. There were only a few holes that had standing water. The greens were good and fair. The holes all vary in their layout, and the really steep uphill ones provide an excellent challenge. The staff was helpful and friendly. The restaurant was ready for the large group and did everything to make our time there enjoyable.

June 7th Safari outing

The Safari club played today the weather was great .

The course was in good shape considering all the rain we have had.

The Pro and his staff couldn't have been more professional, they all went out of their way to make our day perfect.

The pub and kitchen staff did a great job! very much improved over our last visit where they were short staffed and the selection of food offerings was limited.

Overall a great track at a fair price!!

Safari Club Outing

Good time as always with the Safari Club. Cold Springs is a very good host. The greens are very good, and hard to read. The bunkers were easy to get out of. ( for me anyway). But the fairways were not as good as they could be. Many small grass-less spots on most of them. Other then that everything was pretty darn good.

Nice course with views.

Pace VERY slow. Too many twosomes and singles. Players would get bunched up behind foursomes. Club should pair groups to foursomes. No ranger to move slow groups along faster. Limited water available and no cart service. Terrain is challenging. Many side hill lies. Narrow fairways with trees. Beautiful scenery.

Love this place

I get to play Cold Spring a couple times a year and this most recent round produced some of the best conditions I've played in at Cold Spring. What is not to like about this course? Beautiful greens. Challenging lay out. While some area courses are traditional and somewhat boring, this is a fun, exciting track. Elevation changes, unique holes, GREAT views of the are..... plus when the conditions are perfect like they are right now, it's one of the best values around. I would go so far as to say this is a must play for any golfer in the area, at some point this Spring/Early Summer while conditions are peak.

Once was nice

This course use to be amazing...but now it has ok greens, the fairways and dryer than ever with weeds and burnt grass in a lot of areas and the tee boxes had more sand and divots than flat areas with grass to hit from. I once loved this course but I won't go back unless someone pays me to play. It's too bad.

Fun course

This course doesn't beat you up. Very scenic and fun with a good mix of holes. A few " funky", but overall good value for the money. Not yet in top condition, but it's early in the year.

Good day of golf

Good course and value. Greens are firm and tough to hold at times. Course layout is a good test of all shots...one of a few courses I've played where I used all clubs in the bag. Very hilly with severe elevations at times. Would be a tough walk but we had carts.

Overall a very good course with good conditions and excellent staff.
