Boston Golf Club is home to a championship golf course that ranks with some of the best in Massachusetts. This tree-lined parkland layout provides a wonderful test for your all-round game, with many attractive, skilfully crafted and challenging holes to enjoy. However, this is a private course generally playable only by members and their guests.

This club has really gone downhill. Filled with politics, egos, and pretentious members, they do not serve the course. Overly concerned with Golf Digest Ratings and focus on making the course better for ratings, not for the members. Save yourself the time and the money and do not join. Play as a guest if you get the chance, and no more.

What an experience. I have played many great golf courses and Boston Golf Club is the best. If you are luckly enough to know a member and they invite you to play drop everything on your schedule and go.
