Cold Spring Country Club
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.

A terrific par-5 of 490, the second demands good shotmaking to find this green safely. 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

Great value, conditions, and views
Cold Spring was in fabulous condition when I played. The fairways are tight, and there are a lot of up-, down-, and sidehill lies. The greens, which are smooth and fast ( but not ridiculously so) are at different elevations, So, while not super long ( from the red tees), calculating distances and placement of your shots on sloped fairways offer a challenge. The holes ( I only played the front nine) are well- designed and vary nuceky, since they are incorporated well into the landscape.
If you like to walk, you'd better be in good shape is not a good shape ( tgere were a few hearty, young souls walking the day I played), because of the distance between some greens and tees and because of elevation changes. But the trade off is terrific views and beautiful rides through the woods.
The staff was friendly, but I couldn't rate the bar/ restaurant because it was closed, perhaps because of staff shortages. At the height of the season, though, the patio should be a great place to hang out with friends, and celebrate your round--- or lick your wounds, as the case may be.
All to ourselves
Great fall day and we had no one in front or behind us. Course had workers out clearing leaves from tee to greens. Excellent conditions.
Great Layout and Condition
It's October but the condition of the course was perfect. Greens smooth and quick, traps raked meticulously, fairways nice. Even at their regular rate this is a must play course
No staff, no carts, no food service, decent track!
Liked the golf course but the staff and service were atrocious. Don’t open if you cannot afford staff.
Awful pace and rude staff
Person in golf shop checking us in was rude, and he was rude several other times on course. No marshal or any attempt at maintaining pace of play by the club. With packed course, let out a group of five who were clearly locals or friends with the staff. They wouldn't allow groups to play through and when mentioned to the pro, he only said "too bad." Course didn't serve alcohol but didn't mention this on their website. Layout and conditions are very nice, but staff and atmosphere are some of the worst I've experienced in the area.

We value our customers' opinions and would like to make things right and determine how we can provide a solution that makes you smile.
Please contact us directly at the pro shop. Thank you for bringing this to our attention.
Much improved
Course conditioning has improved over past years, due to a rainy summer and repair of the irrigation system. As usual, the staff was friendly and made us feel welcome. We got behind a slow group however and didn't observe a ranger trying to move things along although there was a hole open ahead of the slow foursome. In general, we had a fun golfing experience and will certainly come back and play the course again.
A nice, challenging golf course.
It’s an enjoyable and challenging golf course. The elevation changes will will keep you on your toes from 1 through 18. It’s a well maintained course in every aspect and you certainly get your money’s worth.
Rates
Love the course and everything about it but pricing is just too high for my fixed income. You used to be very reasonable on golf now but even that rate has gone way up
Cold spring weekend
Great for first time for us.
We did not know restaurant and bar was closed and course would allow outside beverages on the course.
Very nice course and facilities.
We appreciate you taking the time to review the course and rate us. We are sorry to hear your customer service experience was not up to par. Please reach out to our management team at (413) 323-4888, and thanks for visiting. We hope you'll give us another try in the future.
