    Formerly St. Marks Golf Course, this 9-hole course was renamed and reconfigured with the addition…read moreof the new Southborough police and fire station. The golf course shares the entrance to the police station, though there is dedicated golf parking around the back. While I really want to like this course, the staff can be unwelcoming, and the course doesn't drain well and is often saturated. Greens are on the small side, so despite being a short course, approaches need to be accurate. Certain tee boxes are in horrible shape, presumably because many hit irons of the grass rather than teeing it up. It is a walkable course - I would not recommend carts due to the aforementioned water issues. Greens fees are fair - currently $22 for weekday.

    Avoid at All Costs -Unprofessional Staff and Management with Alarming Behavior…read more I recently had an encounter with Southborough Golf Course that was so egregious I feel compelled to warn others. My son was at the course with a group of friends. From the outset, the desk clerk "Ken" gave them attitude during check-in, not just a gruff tone, but a clear lack of courtesy or patience. The boys chose to let it go and kept things moving. Later, while waiting for me near the putting green, my son (admittedly not aware chipping wasn't allowed there) chipped a ball. Rather than simply informing him of the rule, Ken chose to make a scene, approaching with a sign and sarcastically asking, "Hey, let's play a game. It's called can you read? When I picked up my son and heard the story on the drive home, I did an about face and brought him back to the course to hear Ken's side. Unfortunately, Ken's response to me started as him being sweet as a pie but quickly became hostile as I inquired parts of his account than what had occurred with the boys. He then gave me attitude--confirming my son's version of events without me needing to ask much. I told him that this kind of behavior doesn't set a good example for young golfers or anyone, and that being older doesn't entitle someone to speak to people with contempt. I then used strong language in return, not something I regret given how he was acting. Ken then chose to block my car and call the police, ultimately requesting a no-trespass order for both me and my son. The staff's behavior was not only unprofessional, but frankly, hostile and unprovoked. What's worse is that when the incident was brought to the attention of management, they defended the conduct and upheld a no-trespass order rather than reviewing the objective video footage that would have clearly shown what actually occurred. Despite the abundance of similar complaints easily found across public review platforms -many citing rude, aggressive, and inappropriate behavior from staff, Southborough appears to double down on its position rather than course-correct. This suggests a culture of dysfunction that starts at the top and trickles down. I've never golfed here myself, and based on this experience, I happily never will. To boot, the course itself is in terrible shape--neglected, poorly maintained. This place has all the hallmarks of a facility coasting on complacency and low standards, and treating patrons with disrespect seems to be par for the course (pun intended). I encourage others to take their time and money elsewhere. There are far better options in the region where courtesy, professionalism, and basic human decency are still valued.

Yes, the course is hilly so getting a flat lie is difficult, but if you can play well here, you can play well anywhere. And the views, especially on the third hole, are great. The restaurant is no longer there, and likely will not be replaced. Nine holes, but different tees on the back nine mixes it up a bit. It's a nice course, challenging in places, great scenery in others.

WCC is an excellent 9-hole course. It is NOT an 18-hole championship course, but IT IS one of the most impeccable 9-hole courses in MA. One typically plays whites out, blues in for a total yardage of about 6200. The blues are only about 200 yards longer, but the tee box placement makes it a much tougher 9. The greens run hot when they are in full swing, think 7/8 on the stimpmeter. The fairways are gorgeous, but the fringe and green rough is sometimes imperfect. For a public course, this is top notch. It gets a lot of play. The greens make this course challenging. If you are on, you can go low easily. If you are having one of those days, prepare to be eaten alive. The course has a very reachable par 4 (in 1, hole 2) and a reachable par 5 (in 2, hole 1). The third hole is a sloping and narrowing par 5 with the toughest green on the course. You MUST be below the hole. This course will force you to hit every club in your bag at least once, you will find yourself with uneven lies, and often questioning how you could three-putt from 15 feet. Worth every penny of the $22 for 9, or $32 for 18.
