Newton Commonwealth Golf Course
About
Newton Commonwealth Golf Course is a public course in Newton, about 10 miles from Boston, that has served residents and visitors since 1897. Redesigned by the renowned architect Donald Ross, it is scenic and challenging, with quick greens, relatively narrow fairways and frequent water and sand bunkers. Course management matters here, and plenty of big hitters have found that out the hard way.
The snack shop is known for its Buddy Burger, served along with other favorites, cold beer and a limited wine selection. The course also hosts charity, corporate and association golf outings, with golf carts for all players, proximity markers for skills contests and an outing coordinator to help organize the day. Golfers can stay current on course conditions and specials through its e-mail club and social media.
