SAFARI GOLF ASSOCIATION

Om May 10th 2017 the Safari Golf Association played our opening day Tournament at Tekoa Country Club.
As usual the Course and staff were ready for us and did an excellent job.
So early in the season but the course was in great shape and the food/buffet afterward was great

Good value

Recently played this course after having last played it many years ago. I was pleasantly surprised by the good condition of the course, given all the bad weather the area had endured. I played in the Safari Club group, which brought 100 players to this course for the opening kick off.
Good conditions, nice layout, and hard/faster greens.
Great course to walk if you are able.

Good value for the price

Played the course last Wednesday with the Safari Club and had an enjoyable time. Fairways and greens were in great shape to begin the season. Also a plus for the club is the friendly staff.

Course friendly for group outings.

We have a special group of over 100 golfers named The Safari Club who play different courses each week. We start the season each year at Tekoa and End each season at Tekoa.
The manager/professional is very well organized and shows genuine interest in our group outing. The staff makes the group feel very welcomed and sets up a buffet at the end of the round. The course was in very good shape and the speed of play for over 100 golfers was excellent. I would highly recommend the course for a group outing or a nice leisurely round of a foursome. There is also the banquet hall to cater to large parties for special functions or weddings.

Timely Tekoa

With some chilly winds and temps only reaching the high 40's, it wasn't the most pleasant day to play golf. But the sun was out most of the time and we were with great friends ALL of the time, so it wasn't difficult at all for our Safari Club members to enjoy another fabulous outing at this Safari Club favorite called Tekoa Country Club.

The wind from the previous two days had really dropped a lot of leaves down on the course and finding balls at times became quite a challenge. But we managed it all pretty well and the idea of hot chili and delicious sandwiches awaiting us in the clubhouse made our goal of completing the round even more inspirational.

The general consensus of opinion from our 100 plus members that played was as expected..."Can't wait to get back to Tekoa next spring"!

Beautiful setting

Have played there many times and always enjoyed it. Fairways and greens are very well maintained and food is outstanding. A relatively flat course which is great for those who want to walk 18. Played there with The Safari Club.

Beautiful setting

Golfing at Tekoa will be memorable. It is well maintained and challenging. Food at the 19th is excellent and staff is welcoming. Located on the eastern side of The Berkshires with nice views. I have played there often with The Safari Club of western Massachusetts.
