Edge Hill Golf Course
About this course
Edge Hill Golf Course occupies rolling terrain in Ashfield, a small hilltop town in the Berkshire foothills of western Massachusetts. Designed by Mark Graves and opened in the mid-1990s, the course reflects a minimalist approach suited to its rural New England setting. The layout works with the natural contours of the land, featuring elevation changes and wooded corridors typical of the region's agricultural landscape. Views extend across the surrounding hills and farmland, particularly from the higher points of the property. The routing takes advantage of the site's topography, with several holes playing uphill or downhill and greens positioned to incorporate natural slopes. The design emphasizes strategic shot-making over length, with relatively modest yardage that makes the course accessible to a range of skill levels. Fairways are bordered by mature trees, and the green complexes often feature subtle undulations that reward thoughtful approach play. Edge Hill operates as a public facility serving both local residents and visitors exploring the Berkshires. The course maintains a straightforward, unpretentious character consistent with its small-town location. It provides a traditional walking experience through the Massachusetts countryside, appealing to golfers who appreciate a quieter round away from more developed resort areas. The setting and scale make it representative of the modest, community-oriented courses found throughout rural New England.

Getting there
# Getting There
Edge Hill Golf Course sits in the rolling farmland of western Massachusetts, most easily reached via Bradley International Airport (BDL) in Hartford, Connecticut, roughly ninety minutes south, or via Albany International (ALB) in New York, a similar distance to the west. The drive north from Bradley carries you through the Connecticut River Valley before climbing into the gentle highlands of Franklin County, where the landscape shifts from suburban sprawl to open meadows and tree-lined country roads. The final approach to Ashfield winds through quintessential New England terrain - stone walls, working farms, and dense forest - before arriving at Edge Hill, a course that feels as much a part of the Massachusetts countryside as the land itself.
