Woburn Country Club

The staff at this country club is the worst golf staff I have ever encountered in my life. They barely looked up as I was paying and they talked to me like I was 6 years old. I did not feel like me or my money was wanted here. The old lady at the desk was one of the most condescending people I’ve met in my entire life.
The course is ok. Can be maintained better in most areas, especially the greens. Not worth the money you pay.
If you like golf, do yourself a favor and play at Newton Commonwealth. Much better staff and course maintenance. I’m never coming back here.

I agree with Jason B.
The guy who works at the desk thinks his dung doesn’t stink. This is typical with golf course staff though…
Course is generally in good condition although the power lines are unnerving (you can hear them buzzing). Greens are very receptive. The only tough hole is 9 as it’s a blind tee shot that plays long uphill.
I love the food and I’ve come back here after a round specifically for the prime rib.

***This review is about the golf course only***
A beautiful golf course marred by an out-​of-​date website which does not mention its tee-​time policies. I’ve played several times during the weekdays (no tee time, first come first served), but when I showed up to play one July Saturday, I was rudely spoken to by the course super who told me I needed a tee time and that the policy is clearly stated on the website. I then spent time looking through the site to find nothing of the sort. I emailed to ask for clarification (um. where does it say this?) but was ignored. Several weeks later after and still no word. Therefore, I decided to warn folks about my experience.
Apparently, this is a course that caters for the residents near by and treats everyone else like dog meat. I was lucky enough to play a few AM 9’s before work but will not be coming back anytime soon.
The sign out on Rt 3 says «Open to the public»… HA!

Its a nice course… definitely not for beginners though. This is a course you want to rent a cart for. Walking a 9-​hole on a hot day is not recommended!

Took my 3 adult sons here for Father’s Day-​what a disappointment. 2 of us golf frequently –but 2 of my sons have only golfed a few times. The old women behind us were RUDE and ignorant. And apparently the managers there don’t really care. Ok, well I guess the Woburn Country Club is just too prestigious for average players– I didn’t realize it was such a PRO course. Note to old grouchy women– stay home on Father’s Day! Note to self-​spend my $ 120 elsewhere.

Been here not to golf, but to partake in a few local functions.
Everything is fine, but IT“S COLD and CHILLY inside.
Love the lit fireplace and all but they should turn the heat, really.
My hot coffee turned cold. The hot meal was served on cold plates, quickly hot food turned cold.
Other that that. It’s decent.

I went here on weekday after purchasing a groupon. I didn’t think that food could actually taste this bad. It seemed like everything we ordered was prepackaged and just fried, warmed, or sparingly cooked on site. My first plate of porkchops were so tough that I couldn’t even cut it with the knife. They were thin chops so you can’t cook them too long but obviously the cook didn’t watch what was happening. The lemonade was tasteless and the dessert was too gooey. The crab cakes were a joke and the fried shrimp (frozen bag — overcooked) and friend calamari (frozen bag – some over, some under cooked). I would never recommend this place as somewhere to eat.

Woburn Country Club has a pretty nice 9 hole course that is quite well maintained and has a pretty good variety of challenges. The power lines running over the course were more of a humorous talking point for myself and my golfing buddies than an actual headache. I was a little confused by why the white tees were sometimes the mids and sometimes the backs and I hate that this course doesn’t have a single par 5 but, hey, what are ya gonna do? It still gets 4 stars in my book.

I don’t play golf. Long walk spoiled and all that– it’s boring for me to even THINK about, let alone watch or want to try to play. Don’t talk to me about golf that doesn’t involve windmills or large orange dinosaurs.
Instead, we will talk about the building. The venue, if you will.
I have however gone to a number of shows here. Most recent: Thanksgiving Eve and St. Patty’s Day to see The Dave Marshall Band (
)
The bar is a decent size, unless of course it’s thanksgiving eve and the ENTIRE graduating class of 2003 is packed into the back room that houses the bar. Which happens, trust me.
The bathrooms are clean, the patio is large, and the people who run the place are really nice and cater to the fairly to very young population that attends these shows.
It has a fireplace, which is not only romantic, but when the room fills up — it makes it NICE AND TOASTY in here!

Got to play here last weekend. Aren’t YOU jealous? Well, the course is in decent shape. I have to say that this is one of the more lush 9-​hole public courses around. That isn’t to say it doesn’t have it’s share of problems! Couple muddy tee boxes, some bizarre tee locations. A couple tee boxes are right along roads! Sort of annoying! A few times you have no idea where the pin is — you just hope you’re going in the right direction. $ 20 is pretty darn steep to play 9 holes walking. But — well, this is GOLF, the game of the rich and mean. If you’re around — check it out.

Played here a few times. The course is very well maintained and in a peaceful hilly setting. It’s got some long holes so takes longer to play then most 9 hole courses. Mostly 4’s, a couple 5’s for women and a couple 3’s. The course is challenging, hilly and has some blind holes. The last hole with a tee shot over a pond is a great way to end your game.
The power lines going across the course on a few holes can be distracting if they are giving off noise or if your ball hits them.
The weekend rates are a little pricier then other courses around Boston. They do give a Woburn resident discount. They are definitely stricter too. The starter will most likely will not send groups out unless you are in pairs of 4. So if you are a single or two some, chances are you’ll be added to a group and they will not budge on that. Once you are out there though, the very experienced players won’t mind playing through ahead of you.
