Westover Golf Club sits on South Schuylkill Avenue in Jeffersonville, Pennsylvania, with a Norristown mailing address. It is a semi-private, George Fazio-designed 18 that opened in 1967 and now sells daily play, three membership levels and banquet and wedding events.
My Westover Golf Club review comes down to this: the layout is more interesting than the price suggests, and the upkeep is where the grumbling starts.
This is not the Westover in Granby, Massachusetts, which is a different municipal course with a similar name and more online reviews. I did not play the Pennsylvania one for this piece. I worked from the club’s 2026 rate sheets, GolfPass, GolfN, Hole19 and the complaints golfers actually post.

What I Liked
- It plays differently from a flat muni. Reviewers describe hills, water and bunkers on a routing that started life as a private country club.
- Three par 3s on the back nine. GolfPass reviewers single this out as the quirky part of Fazio’s plan.
- The rate sheet is public and easy to read. Rides, walks, seniors, nines and twilight windows are all listed.
- Four tee sets. The gold and red tees at about 4,800 yards give older or newer players a fair round.
- Conditions are generally fine. Even the critical reviews say the fairways and greens hold up. The harsher comments are about what surrounds them.
What I Didn’t Like
- Bunkers and tee boxes show wear. A GolfPass reviewer cites deteriorating sand, bare tee boxes and water fountains that were removed.
- Rounds can run five hours. Tight spacing between tees is blamed for backups, and one reviewer logged a five-hour round.
- The range is thin. It is described as irons only, so you cannot warm up a driver.
- Staff comments split. One review calls the shop check-in gruff, while another praises a front-desk employee who knew customers by name.
- The sample is small. GolfPass shows a 3.4 from eight reviews, while Hole19 shows 4.3 from 54. Treat both with caution.
Membership & Fees
Westover posts real numbers, but you cannot buy in right now. The 2026 membership page lists Unlimited at $1,750 for an individual, Weekday at $1,300 and Senior Weekday (55 and over) at $1,200. All three show as sold out. An Associate level is listed at $50 for reduced rates, also sold out.
The page shows no initiation fee, which is unusual enough to confirm by phone. Members’ cart rental is listed at $15 for 18 holes and $8 for nine, with pull carts at $3.
For daily play, weekday walkers pay $45 before 1:50 PM and $35 after. Seniors get $40 and $30 on Monday through Thursday. To judge whether $1,300 beats a stack of $45 rounds, try our look at whether semi-private golf clubs publish membership prices and the annual dues divided by your usual green fee.
Facilities & Amenities
- Golf: 18 holes, with carts, walking and a teaching professional.
- Practice: driving range and putting green. Reviewers say the range is irons only.
- Dining: The Bar & Grille at Westover, open to the public.
- Events: the club markets banquet, wedding and outing space of more than 12,000 square feet.
- Not offered: rental clubs, per GolfPass.
The event business matters for your tee time. Large parties and outings can reshape a weekend calendar, so ask about them before you book a Saturday.
Best Time to Visit
Late April through June and September through October are the sweet spots around Norristown. Summers are humid, and the course can feel crowded on weekends.
The rate sheet drops sharply after 1:50 PM, and weekend rides fall from $75 to $50 after 4:00 PM. If you can play late on a weekday, that is where the value is.
Dress Code & Etiquette
I found no published dress code. Collared shirts and standard golf shorts will not raise eyebrows. The one firm rule I found is no metal spikes.
Etiquette matters most on the back nine’s par 3s, where tee boxes are close together. Hit when the group ahead clears, and keep moving.
Who Is This Club For?
This club is a good fit if you live in Montgomery County and want an interesting layout under $50 on a weekday afternoon.
This club is a good fit if you run a company outing or event and want the course, bar and banquet space under one roof.
Skip this one if you care about perfect bunkers, a full range or a quick round. Our Oakmont Country Club review covers the other end of Pennsylvania golf.
Skip this one if you want a membership this season, since the three levels are sold out. More local options are in our Pennsylvania club archive.
People Also Ask: Frequently Asked Questions
Is Westover Golf Club public or private?
Westover Golf Club is semi-private. It welcomes the public for daily play and also sells memberships, though all three 2026 membership levels are listed as sold out. A regional tourism guide says it was built as a private country club, which fits the layout’s more elaborate feel.
How much does it cost to play Westover Golf Club?
The 2026 rate sheet lists weekday 18 holes at $55 riding or $45 walking before 1:50 PM, dropping to $45 and $35 afterward. Weekends run $75 riding or $65 walking in the morning. Seniors get lower weekday rates. Always check current pricing before booking.
Who designed Westover Golf Club?
George Fazio designed Westover, which opened in 1967, according to GolfPass and GolfN. He was the uncle of the better-known architect Tom Fazio. The club’s own site credits Fazio but does not describe any later changes to the holes.
What are the memberships at Westover Golf Club?
The 2026 page lists Unlimited at $1,750, Weekday at $1,300, Senior Weekday at $1,200 and an Associate level at $50 for reduced rates. All were marked sold out. No initiation fee appears on the page, so call the club to confirm.
Is Westover Golf Club the same as Westover in Massachusetts?
No. This review covers the club at 401 S. Schuylkill Avenue in Jeffersonville, Pennsylvania. Westover Golf Course in Granby, Massachusetts is a separate public course designed by Orrin Smith in 1957. The names match, but the owners, courses and rates do not.
Is Westover Golf Club worth it?
For a weekday afternoon round under $50, usually yes. The Fazio layout has more character than the price suggests. It is less compelling at full weekend rates if bunkers and pace matter to you, since golfers report worn sand and slow rounds.
Verdict & Score
GCR Score: 3.7 / 5 – Good Value, Uneven Upkeep
An interesting 1967 layout, a public rate sheet and cheap late-day rounds earn the score. Worn bunkers, slow pace and a thin range hold it back. The three membership levels being sold out is a mark against anyone who wants to join.
Book a weekday afternoon first and judge the bunkers yourself. See how I weigh pace and value on our review methodology page.
