Absolutely disgraceful. Management leaves responses that are comical for a golf course, a sport supposed to remain with a level of respect. This course is the sole reason I am joining country club, and makes all of the fees fully worth it. Pro shop workers are quite embarrassing too. I’m not sure if their overseers lack any power or they just don’t care about how their employees treat customers. Have never experienced this from any other course either, as Wayland Country Club (Public) is seriously better. Anyone planning on coming here, go to Wayland. It is worth the $10 extra and further drive.

Absolutely sensational. Fairways were stunning. Greens were running at about a 12.5 but still manageable. The views from most tee boxes were breathtaking. Some of Bostons best.

I have been playing here for my entire golf life (35+ years) and I can say with great certainty: I'm finished with this course. I've had many issues over the years with "members" here (don't get me started on membership at a muni...) and management's response to those issues. Like many of the one star reviews; the course should not be sending people off the back 9 at 6AM if they are going to allow members to do as they please. I made a 6am tee time to play 9 holes and as we hit hole 14, a group of 4 walkers coming off the front cut in front of us. Not a word to us asking if this was OK, and then they had the balls to thank us as they walked off the tee box. We did the right thing and told the starter. He said he would talk to them after they finished. What? This wouldn't be a problem on a Wednesday in October, but on Father's day Sunday???? So we took matters into our own hands and spoke (very respectfully) to the group and let them know that they needed to stop play and we were playing through. They didn't like this and got very agitated, telling us they were members and they do this all the time and they are faster than us. Objectively: everything they said was wildly rude

Played Newton Comm today. Course is in excellent shape. I also want to say. A year ago I put up a post that was not right, and I feel bad about it.I said that I've been allowed to take my own cart at different courses. But this year I've played a couple different courses & I have had to drive with another player. So I want to shout out an apology to Albie. I was wrong.

I was very, very disappointed with this course. If you are an adult and/or serious about golf whatsoever, do not play here. Overpriced, clientele does not know how to act, course is a mess. Over $70 for a full 18 with a cart is ridiculous when you are teeing off on the fairway on some holes. The greens are in unacceptable condition. The actual course layout is not pleasing to play. With the fairways sloped at a 45 degree angle and the ridiculous greens, good play is not rewarded. I have played many municipal courses, and I would rather play any single one of those again instead of here. The greens actually looked like Falluja, there’s no working with that. There are no valid excuses for the terrible experience that is Newton Commonwealth Golf Course. I would advise anyone to spend their time elsewhere.
