Westborough Country Club

I visited Westborough Country Club for the first time this morning and had an awkward experience. While taking videos of the putting green and clubhouse, a staff member immediately asked me to follow her to the Director of Golf's office, where I was demanded to delete the videos and even my Google Map screenshot. Having played golf for 40 years and visited many private clubs, this was the first time I encountered such unfriendly treatment. If you plan to visit, be cautious; the staff is not welcoming. This experience left a very negative impression.

My parents have lived on one of the tees for 41 years, and my grandparents before them as my grandfather built the home. The course has made for such great scenery over the years and the members have always been nothing but courteous. There has always been a 40 foot net that kept us safe from balls flying into our yard and pool. This winter the net was taken down and promised to be replaced….this was 120 days ago. Golf is in full swing and 3 days ago while painting I came 2 feet from being hit in the head as the ball actually stuck in our brand new privacy fence. Today while swimming my 6 year old nephew came 4 feet from meeting a much too early grave as a very nice man sliced his second shot 60 yards off the fairway into our pool. Nobody responds to my 72 year old mothers cries. She was bullied by the new head Greenskeeper during a meeting about the missing net. She lost her husband to cancer 9 months ago and just wants to enjoy her time in the yard without getting her head split open by a stray ball. I hate that I had to do this, but it’s become the only option.

Great atmosphere....the club is very family friendly from the clubhouse and pool to the golf course. The staff is friendly and always attentive to your needs. My kids love the pool in the summertime and the fitness center is a big plus. The food has always been very good. My guests have also been impressed with their experience time and time again.
