Westhope Country Club
Frequently Asked Questions
When is the best time of year to play Westhope Country Club?
We recommend visiting Westhope during the shoulder seasons for the most enjoyable experience. Spring (April-May) offers lush conditions and comfortable temperatures before the summer heat, while fall (September-October) provides stunning foliage and crisp air. You'll want to avoid mid-summer if you're not a fan of humidity.
What kind of challenge can I expect from Westhope's course design?
Westhope is a classic parkland layout that truly demands precision, not just raw power. You'll find tree-lined fairways and strategically placed bunkers that punish errant shots, especially on the back nine. The greens are subtly undulating, so bring your best putting stroke and read them carefully.
Is Westhope Country Club accessible to non-members, and what are the typical green fees?
While primarily a member's club, Westhope does offer limited public play, usually on weekdays or during off-peak hours. Expect green fees to be in the $120-$180 range, which we think is a fair price for the course's immaculate conditioning and classic design. We strongly recommend calling ahead for availability and to book your tee time.
What amenities does Westhope Country Club offer besides the golf course?
Beyond the excellent course, you'll find a well-stocked pro shop with quality gear and a friendly staff ready to help. The clubhouse restaurant, 'The 19th Hole,' serves up excellent post-round meals and drinks, and their outdoor patio is perfect for recounting your birdies. The practice facilities, including a driving range and chipping green, are also top-notch.
Are there any signature holes or unique features at Westhope Country Club I should look out for?
Absolutely, keep an eye out for the par-3 7th, which plays over a picturesque pond to a well-guarded green-it's a real beauty and a test of nerve. The finishing 18th is also memorable, a long par-4 with a tricky approach shot to a green nestled right in front of the clubhouse. It's a fantastic way to end your round.
