The skyline views, amenities, and conditions dazzle at Granite Links, but it’s hard for me to think of a more overpriced or overrated course in all of New England. This is definitely a viable option for Boston visitors, but I’d personally rather play the historic George Wright at 1/3 the price. … More Review: Granite Links Golf Club
It’s rare you get to play an unadulterated Ross, let alone a municipal one that costs less than $50. George Wright is a fantastic design and my choice for best public course in the immediate Boston area. Featuring a very difficult terrain and numerous blind shots, this is a course all Ross enthusiasts should see and could be one of the best courses in Massachusetts with some TLC. … More Review: George Wright Golf Course
Although well-conditioned, Chemawa is too short and monotonous to recommend to anyone but novices. … More Review: Chemawa Golf Course
Conjuring up comparisons to Pine Valley, Boston Golf Club is a modern classic, with bold contours, endless strategy, incredible variety, and a serious amount of charm. This golfing-first member-owned Club is a course you’ll never tire playing and is a true inspiration to all other modern courses who want a traditional feel. If you get a chance to play this Gil Hanse gem, drop everything and experience one of the most thought-provoking designs of the 21st century. … More Review: Boston Golf Club
William J. Devine Golf Course at Franklin Park is one of several affordable, public classic gems littered around New England. As the second oldest public course in America, the history here is tremendous and both novices and accomplished golfers will enjoy this unadulterated Ross layout. I recommend this course to those visiting the Boston area. … More Review: The William J. Devine Golf Course at Franklin Park
The charming and exclusive Kittansett Club is one of the most underrated courses in America and might be my dark horse candidate for best course in New England. Featuring a dazzling set of seaside holes and equally interesting inland holes, an invite to Kittansett is to be cherished. … More Review: The Kittansett Club
Blackstone National is one of the better public courses in New England and one I’d recommend in the area, but ultimately falls into too many of the same Rees Jones pitfalls as his other New England courses – bland, treelined holes too demanding tee-to-green for the average golfer yet at the same time too unimaginative around the greens. … More Review: Blackstone National Golf Club
While skilled players may find the rudimentary design and subpar conditioning underwhelming, John F. Parker is a decent course for novices or high handicappers to hone their skills. … More Review: John F. Parker Municipal Golf Course
The affordable Stone-E-Lea is a good course for beginners to learn the game, but serious golfers will be underwhelmed by the simplistic design and poor conditions. … More Review: Stone-E-Lea Golf Course
Impeccably conditioned, Pocasset is an under-the-radar Donald Ross charmer located in Cape Cod. While on the shorter side, the course features challenging greens and is the type of course I could envision myself playing everyday. … More Review: Pocasset Golf Club
