Golf in Wayland

Wayland is a Middlesex County outer suburb in the Sudbury River valley between Natick and Sudbury. Two courses serve the community — Sandy Burr Country Club and Wayland Country Club — drawing from a town where the Sudbury watershed's conservation land has been actively protected, giving both layouts a natural context that Route 9 corridor communities don't always preserve. The Sudbury River's protected corridor and the extensive town-owned conservation land in Wayland give the golf here a more rural-adjacent quality than the surrounding development density would indicate — one of the benefits of a community that has invested seriously in land preservation along a major suburban arterial.
