The Newton Commonwealth Golf Course is a fine course. As it is right outside my back door, I play it frequently. When I wake up in the morning I enjoy hearing the sounds of drives, chips, and putts. It is well maintained, though be aware of the steep slope that the course is on. It is a great deal for students, only $25 for 18 holes. Push carts and golf carts are available. Plenty of parking near the clubhouse and the first tee.

I'm a Newton resident. Been playing here for about 5 years. I have only one problem with the course. They charge 21 dollars for a cart, per person. And you have to ride with another person. Being a single player always I'm riding with someone that I don't know. It's the only course I know that implements this rule. I think it's wrong.

EDIT: In response to my one star review, their admin said: "Dustin, thank you for your detailed long review of 1 star. We will completely ignore this." That's fine with me because I don't review for businesses, I review for consumers. And, given your snarky, "well actually" and "that's out of our control" responses to anything remotely negative that reviewers say, it seems that in practice, you might also ignore long detailed reviews as well. If you want to know, my gripe is your choice to send groups off of the front and back nine. So, a person can start on 1 at 6AM in the summer, and get to 10 and be met with a 2-3 group back up. There are things about the course that are out of your control that I don't love, but since you can't change them, no use bringing them up. The tee sheet however is fully in your control. So, have you heard negative feedback before about sending groups off the front and back nine? If so, did you implement the feedback and change the policy? If you just gave a snarky response (likely a P and L concern which is understandable) and did nothing to change it, you're also effectually ignoring detailed reviews. So what's the point of you coming at me?

“State of the art driving range” “Mint condition range balls” 3 minute tee times where a struggle but I was able to beat Albie’s course record. Owen was on my ass all day but I was able to sneak in a few outside beers while he wasnt Looking. Maybe he should go back to spirit airlines

Great course which is well maintained and quite accessible right outside of Boston. The new bunkers bring additional challenges to the course. As a frequent golf traveler, I look for a course in great condition, good value, a fair test of golf with reasonable challenges and most importantly an engaging /welcoming team. Newton Commonwealth meets that criteria.
