On Wednesday, explosions described as fireworks-like erupted at the New Seabury Country Club, a 300-acre private golf and beach resort in Mashpee. Footage shared on social media showed bright flashes and loud bangs near the ground. A neighbor reported their house shaking.
A large number of ambulances, fire trucks, and Mashpee police flooded the scene. The Mashpee Fire Department is investigating, but no official cause has been confirmed, and it’s unclear if the incident was connected to a planned fireworks show in the area that night. No injuries have been reported, though authorities are still gathering details.
The Club at New Seabury, recently acquired by Concert Golf Partners for $60 million in June 2025, features two championship golf courses and employs over 500 seasonal staff. The incident follows other recent fires in Mashpee, including a 2023 condo fire on Sand Dunes Court and a 2024 shed fire on Burning Bush Road.
