Newton Commonwealth Golf Course is a beautiful, exceptionally groomed, 18 hole public course located just minutes from downtown Boston. 1997 marked the centennial anniversary of the club, which was redesigned in 1920 by the renowned architect, Donald Ross. It offers a short, but challenging round of golf featuring quick greens and relatively narrow fairways. Course management is essential, as many a big hitter has discovered, with water and sand bunkers appearing frequently.
