Get My PERKS

With this perks deal you may find yourself tempted to call in “sick” on a sunny day this summer.  And with half off a golf foursome, why not? Give yourself a break and spend a day golfing at the picturesque Ellinwood Country Club.

Ellinwood CC opened in 1929 with a nine-hole course designed by world famous golf course architect Donald Ross.  In 1965, the course was expanded to eighteen holes with the help of New England legend, architect Geoffrey Cornish.  The final nine holes were added around the original course.  The course at Ellinwood CC is renowned for its character.  The blend of Ross’s postage stamp greens and Cornish’s lengthy undulations provides golfers with a variety of situations and unique challenges at every hole.

Described in the Worcester Telegram and Gazette as a "hidden gem," Ellinwood CC has been an important role in the identity of the town of Athol, and offers a hometown feel.  In addition to a great golf experience, Ellinwood CC has many amenities that you can enjoy.  Browse the pro shop, munch on a hearty sandwich at the 19th Hole Snack Bar, or relax in the clubhouse set in an old colonial farmhouse, complete with a rustic woodwork bar area and fireplace. So, go ahead, play hooky, and get out on the green!
