Private country club · Weston, MA.

Golf anchors the property, while family life, quiet traditions, and seasonal routines carry through the rest of the year.

The Course · Par 72 · 6,657 Yards

Ross’s 1922 layout uses natural glacial contours and strategic angles to test placement over raw distance.

Tailored practice grounds mirror the ground game, bump-and-run demands, and subtle fall-aways of Ross’s green complexes.

In 1963, Geoffrey Cornish expanded the routing with the 11th and 12th holes, preserving the original land flow and native tree lines.

The Club Rhythm

An ordinary Saturday moves from early practice to eighteen holes and lunch; the afternoon divides between the range, pool and junior golf.

First Tee & Practice Green

Dew still on the practice green. A few putts, a word with the starter, then the walk to the first tee in flat early light.

Beyond the Course

While the course anchors the property, racquets, swimming, candlepin bowling, and informal dining welcome every generation.

Through the Year

New England changes the course, the light and the reasons to return. Golf leads the warm months; the club does not disappear when the fairways quiet.

Stewardship

Founded in 1889, the club moved to its present ground in 1916–17. Donald Ross’s expanded layout opened in 1922; Geoffrey Cornish added today’s 11th and 12th holes in 1963.
