Country Club of Pittsfield

Set on a 230-acre former estate south of downtown Pittsfield, the Country Club of Pittsfield today presents an 18-hole, par-71 course that plays 6,458 yards from the back (Gold) tees, with four forward sets down to 3,843 yards. The routing moves across rolling Berkshire uplands with modest elevation change, a mix of corridor and open holes, and several water-influenced approaches. A published hole-by-hole provides yardages, pars, and guidance for each hole, including the club’s identification of No. 3 as “one of Donald Ross’s original holes,” while the overall scorecard confirms the present tee yardages and ratings (72.0/137 from Gold). The club operates as a private, member-owned facility with dining and a broad program of social and racquet amenities; recent club communications also reference an ongoing golf course renovation program with architect Bruce Hepner focused on course infrastructure and refinement of features. In competitive terms, Pittsfield regularly serves as a site for Massachusetts Golf qualifying, underscoring a course set-up that can test better players but remains walkable and playable across its tee spectrum. Visitors encountering Pittsfield today will find a classic New England parkland presentation whose core routing reflects the 1928–30 Wayne Stiles & John Van Kleek redesign, layered over earlier work by Donald Ross and, before him, the club’s original nine.
