Wentworth Hills Golf & Country Club
About this course
Wentworth Hills Golf & Country Club sits in Plainville, a small town in southeastern Massachusetts between Providence and Boston. The course was designed by Howard Maurer, a regional architect active primarily in the Northeast during the latter decades of the twentieth century. Maurer's work typically emphasizes playability for a range of skill levels while incorporating the natural terrain features of New England landscapes. The property occupies rolling terrain characteristic of the region, with elevation changes that provide variety in shot values and visual interest throughout the round. Mature tree lines define many holes, and the routing likely takes advantage of natural ridges and valleys to create strategic options off the tee and on approach shots. Water features and bunker placements serve to frame landing areas and greens, rewarding accurate play without imposing excessive penalty for club-level golfers. Wentworth Hills functions as a private country club serving the local community and surrounding area. The facility includes traditional amenities expected of a full-service club, with dining and social programs complementing the golf operation. The course provides a home for member play, club competitions, and regular events that anchor the social calendar. Its location in a residential area of southeastern Massachusetts places it within convenient reach of both the Providence and Boston metropolitan regions, serving members who value a traditional country club experience in a suburban New England setting.

Getting there
The journey to Wentworth Hills Golf & Country Club begins at Boston Logan International Airport (BOS), roughly forty minutes north by car through the outer reaches of metropolitan Boston. The drive southwest traces Interstate 95 before peeling onto quieter state routes that thread through classic New England towns - white steeples, stone walls, the gradual loosening of suburban density. As you cross into Plainville, the landscape opens into rolling woodlands and farmland, the final approach revealing the club's secluded setting in the rural heart of Norfolk County, a world apart from the city yet comfortably within its orbit.
