Butter Brook Golf Club
About this course
Butter Brook stands as a testament to the enduring appeal of accessible, community-focused golf in the historic Westford area. Carved from gently rolling New England terrain, this early 2000's design offers a pleasant, straightforward playing experience. While not demanding extreme length, Butter Brook presents enough strategic challenge with well-placed bunkers and subtle green complexes to test all skill levels. The course is a George Fazio design, with some notable renovations to greens complexes in recent years to add a bit more of the modern bump and run style. Its generally wide fairways invite the occasional wayward drive, making it forgiving for the recreational player, and it is a particularly inviting course for junior golfers or those new to the game. While Butter Brook hasn't played host to major championships, its welcoming atmosphere and community ties are the true hallmarks of the club. It is known regionally for its strong men's and women's leagues. One thing that makes Butter Brook unique is how it's become a hub for local veterans, providing a space for camaraderie and recreation that extends beyond the fairways. Post-round, the club's restaurant, known for its casual New England fare, including the famed New England clam chowder is an excellent compliment to the day.

Getting there
The journey to Butter Brook Golf Club begins at Boston Logan International Airport (BOS), situated roughly thirty miles southeast, with a drive of approximately forty-five minutes north and west through the suburban corridors of greater Boston before the landscape opens into the rolling terrain of the Merrimack Valley. For those arriving by private aircraft, Hanscom Field (BED) in nearby Bedford offers a considerably more intimate gateway, reducing ground travel to little more than twenty minutes. The final approach winds through the quiet residential neighborhoods of Westford, where tree-lined roads and the gentle topography of the Massachusetts countryside signal the transition from the urban periphery to the serene, manicured grounds of the club itself.
