Fresh Pond Golf Course: what do users think?
James Rippy: Was it wonderful day, the weather was fine nature was beautiful...
Nicky R: Beautiful I wish to see more road races there.
Tim C: Best overall course in the area, for the views and value. Fantastic greens, and really well taken care of. Staff are more than fine- have never had a single issue; I know they can get worried about pace of play, but I don't blame them for trying to keep it moving. Just a really excellent place.
Mªeugenia Gonzalez Rivero: Reserva natural cerca de Boston.
rafinel castillo de leon: Beautiful
Eduards Tralmaks: The course is actually good with good greens BUT man the staff that works there is something else. I’m not talking about the guy at the pro shop but the starter and the old guy driving around looking to scream at someone for something. We parked with 2 wheels on the rough instead of all of the wheels being on the cartpath on accident and the old guy drives and screams while my friend is chipping. The starter is always mad about something and rushing everybody to hit their balls and get out of the way. I shanked my ball because of being rushed and he told me to let the group behind me go and I felt embarrassed. Also my score is 90 so I’m not a complete amateur. I would love to come back but while the same staff is there count me out.
Chris Lynch: Beware around hole 4 and 7! I got stung 4 times by some angry wasps, told the guy at the clubhouse and he said “he told groundskeepers to spray that a few days ago but I guess they haven’t gotten around to it.” Pretty bad look knowing you have a wasps nest in the middle of the course and not taking care of it immediately. Disappointing because it’s a nice course
Kate Haber: I was excited to enjoy a day of golf at Fresh Pond, a course I’ve played at before, but the day started off terribly. A female employee was positioned at the first hole and began verbally attacking my golf partner and me for being a few mins late to our tee time (despite the second half of our group having already teed off). While I can understand an employee asking for us to hurry the employee continued to state that we were late and continued to yell while I was trying to hit from the tee. She was yelling that I should just drop the ball up the fairway despite the fact that I had plenty of time to tee off. I repeatedly stated that I was sorry for being a few minutes late, but that she was being rude and that her yelling wasn’t helping us move any faster. Instead, it was just making all the members in my group uncomfortable. It was clear to me that this employee could not control herself as she compulsively stated how we were late despite our apologizing. It got so bad that I finally said she was ruining our experience and told her to stop berating me and my golf partner. She finally stopped. There is absolutely no excuse for speaking to patrons the way my group was spoken to today, especially not for being a few minutes late. Luckily the group I golfed with made up for the terrible beginning. Regardless, I won’t be golfing here again.
Johanna Meyer: Always a good walk
Henry Buda: Great course but I felt the greens were a little faster than some other courses in the area.
lafontaine orvild: Beautiful place to walk around.
Daniel Destefano: Very enjoyable course and staff
Anna Dyakiv: Worst experience I’ve ever had at a golf course. Spoke with Andrew over the phone to book a tee time. Only asked for the name. Did not provide any instructions . Upon arriving at the first tee I was told I need two bags of clubs to play even though I had all the clubs and was just sharing a bag with a friend. The person checking in at the tee, Sunny was extremely disrespectful, raised her voice and got into my face. When I walked back to ask Andrew why that was the policy he said “I am not going to get into it” wouldn’t explain why. Raised his tone, refused to refund to the credit card I paid with and instead threw the cash in my face and told me to leave. Gave me a phone number for his director when I tried to call it, Andrew answered. There was a group checking in at the same time who were appalled by how he was speaking to my friend and I. Needless to say it was a very unpleasant experience. If I was properly explained the policy and treated with respect I would have had no issue renting another bag! Additionally just read the review and it seems like this is an ongoing issue and the staff is untrained and disrespectful.
Charlie Cronin: Probably my worst golf experience yet and without a doubt the worst golf staff I have encountered. All but one employees were extremely rude, condescending and the opposite of empathetic towards the unexperienced golfers we were with. Right off the bat, the ranger on the first tee was pressuring us about pace and proceed to follow us down the fairway and tell the girls to hit off the handicap tee. The pressure exerted by the staff on the first hole made for a terrible start to the day and made us feel like we couldn't take any time on the remaining holes. We didn't even putt on the first hole we felt that pressured. This is a 9-hole municipal public course, yet the staff that works here acts as if they're hosting the US Open. On top of that, it's an enormous rip off. To play only 9-holes and be treated by the staff like that, paying upwards of $40 is simply comical. You could play 18 holes at most courses for that price. It's safe to say I will not be returning to this course and would strongly not recommend it for anyone who wants to have fun golfing or isn't extremely experienced.
Max P: Well maintained 9 hole course but it can get a little busy especially in the summer afternoons, especially with tee times 10 minutes apart from each other.
Simon Watts: I have lived close to this course for the last fifteen years since moving here from England.I have been lucky enough to play some of the best golf courses in England and here in the US.Fresh Pond Golf Course is absolutely the best value round of golf in the Greater Boston area. It would still be good value at twice the price.Bob and Andy in the pro shop run a very tight ship - the course and greens are always in excellent shape. They are professionals, they care about the game and care about their course. Play there - get to know them - it will quickly become your favorite place for nine holes.The course is on the shorter side, designed to challenge the skilled golfer but accessible to the high handicapper. I aways find the dog-leg left fourth hole a worthy challenge. A well hit tee shot is rewarded by a down hill fairway at the landing zone.I always forget that I’m in the middle of a city - just this week a beautiful doe stood transfixed on the cart path as we hit our putts on the 6th.
Emilio Lapiello: Nice course, but management lacks empathy for people they happen to spray with putrid water while playing.When asked why the sprinklers were on while people were playing, their reply was that "there is a timer for the sprinklers and that's how it is".It is unfortunate for paying customers that the timer is set to start while they are still playing.It would have been nice of them to just apologize for the inconvenience and set things straight, but that did not happen at all.With all the worries about Covid and other diseases, recommendations to wear masks indoors and so on, I am eager to find out how the City of Cambridge Health department feels about people being sprayed with putrid water on one of the facilities the city owns and manages.
Al Wayne: Andrew at the front desk is horrible. Bad tempered, extremely rude, and inconsiderate. Seems as if he’d rather be doing anything else - a true pity on a course as good as this one. Seriously negatively impacts the course experience.
Patrick McKenna: Just golfed here for the first time last Friday, and now see why the tee times fill up! The staff was friendly and welcoming as soon as we walked up to the club house, even showing us the practice green and made sure we knew where the first tee was. The course makes you forget you're as close to the city as you are! Great views and challenging shots, this was a great course for me and my fiancé to enjoy together to help our game. Really looking forward to making this one of our regular courses!!!
Tyler Jon Morrison: This perfect, 9-hole layout is so much fun and so well maintained; you will always get to use all the clubs in your bag here, with two par-5 holes and three par-3s, playing to a par of 35. The greens are invariably in excellent condition and tend to run on the faster side of the Stimpmeter compared against most public courses. Donald Ross elements of architecture are detectable in a number of the greens complexes and tee shots, however the course is very easy to walk without too many elevation changes overall. Bob Carey does a great job of running the pro shop for all your couse equipment needs, and all of the staff are excellent at their jobs, friendly and knowledgeable. Call the pro shop for day-of tee times, but otherwise their online booking is easy to use. Come out to Fresh Pond and hopefully I'll see you out there 🍻 cheers.
FELIPE DE AZEVEDO SILVA RIBEIRO: Lugar excelente para entrar em contato com a natureza, caminhar ou fazer piquenique.

Newton Commonwealth Golf Course: what do users think?
Max P: Came in late April 2023- four of the holes were undoing maintenance and some of the greens were just completely destroyed. Ground staff was also pretty ambivalent. There are also some questionably designed holes- #13 and #14 in particular put you in range of the parked cars and clubhouse. The course is also set on a bunch of hills, so a nice flat fairway is actually hard to come by.
Shawn Connors: Great place to catch a Boston sunset while swinging some sticks at a little white ball.
James E.: Great public course, in the mornings the starters run it like clockwork. I normally finish 18 holes in 3:15, faster if I get out solo or as a twosome. The pace of play has been exceptional. One of the few muni courses that attend to leaves on the fairway / greens. A fun layout and great for walkers. This is my preferred 18-hole public course close to the city.
Lawrence Majchrzak: Will say the course is not in bad shape, but pace of play is horrendous. Absolutely a joke it took us 4.5 hours to get through 14 holes. On pace for nearly a 6 hour round. Had to leave because I didnt want to be late for work. Dont come here unless you have all day.Ranger sitting there doing nothing chatting on the phone by the clubhouse.
Cameron Shelmire: It took 3 hours to play 9 holes and the course was overbooked. The course was in regular condition, but I do not recommend playing 18 past 12 pm.
Daniel Mitchell: Course was in tremendous shape, fun mix of hole difficulty to keep you engaged but not ruin your confidence. The gentleman working the pro shop was friendly and helpful. I showed up looking for 9 holes and left after 27. If I’m in the area in the future I’ll be back
Jamie Scott: Gets very busy around 4:00 pm. Very narrow entrance. Have to do a lot of maneuvering to get a parking spot.
Chris Truglio: One of the more unique muni courses out there. Entire course is generally maintained pretty well, yet challenging regardless of handicap. Good number of fairways are on huge slopes, so even if you hit it straight, your ball might roll all the way down -- EVERYTHING always rolls towards the clubhouse. Keep that in mind, adjust accordingly & have fun!
Jeremy Anderson: Great mid summer conditions. Even in a drought
Jon Koehly: Nice place.
chris bird: Maybe because I didn't play well, but the course is either a side hill or up/down hill or dog leg. All is in good shape and staff was really nice. Parking is a beast and the practice green is useless since it's synthetic on cement. I like George wright so much better.
Peter Loar: This is a very average municipal course. It’s decently maintained and staff is friendly. Pace of play on the weekend is generally pretty poor. The tee times are a little to closer together in my opinion. Half the time when I go I stop after 13 or 14 the hole with the tee box next to the club house just due to slow pace of play.Overall it’s a decent course to practice on if you are a beginner or just trying to work on certain aspects of your game.
Sean Smith: Very average course, the quality is fine.
Jake Cabrera: Well kept course. Friendly staff. Great atmosphere to enjoy a round. Solid pro shop and food options.
Chris Cannizzaro: I’ve played there a bunch of times and it’s actually a nice little course. A bit short and quirky (see 13th and 14th holes) but overall a fun course and they keep it in excellent shape for a municipal. The only real problem is the pace of play. They schedule a tee time every 10 minutes and then don’t have a ranger or ANYONE out there to enforce pace. On weekday afternoons it can get pretty ridiculous and on weekends, just forget it. Tried to play last Saturday and it took us 45 minutes to play the first 2 holes waiting on every single shot and then there were 2 groups ahead of us waiting on the 3rd tee box. Eventually we just jumped ahead to 7 and played a few random holes because or else I might still be out there. Hopefully the absence of a ranger is a staffing issue or something that they can address for next season and if not hopefully they consider spacing out the tee times a bit so it doesn’t create such a log jam.
Qi Li: Great condition on the fairways but horrible green due to ongoing work but lots of sand which make it completely awful to put. Nice view early am though.
Elizabeth Wilson: Very interesting layout; fun!
Mike Jones: Ranger on Sunday was extremely rude. Came over and started, literally yelling at me, “you need to pick it up!!!!”, I said ok, he said again “you need to pick it up!!! the team in front of you is already a hole ahead!!!!!”. I decided to skip the green play on the hole to keep pace and jumped up to the next tee, and the team in front of us was still on the fairway. Through my whole day off. Extremely disrespectful. Finished 18 in under 4 hours. Apparently that’s too slow for this course. Mind you, this is a PUBLIC course and I am paying to enjoy my Sunday morning. Not going back.
Cara smith: I did a search for kid friendly golf course. This course came up. Called and they said no. I think it's only friendly if the kids are golfing. Not if they are sitting in your lap. Just a note to add.
Adi MR: Enjoy playing this course… started playing it this year to play a quick 9 on weekend mornings. It not too long, hilly, on the narrower side, and very enjoyable for an intermediate golfer. Easy to book online, friendly staff and the course is in good shape this year.
Michael Mastroberti: If you’ve played golf before..this definitely is not for you.

Cedar Glen Golf Course: what do users think?
Bryce Hansen: The course is clearly not maintained, with several of the tee boxes completely made up of dirt. Pace of play was terrible, with groups being sent out immediately after each other, there were 3 groups waiting on the same tee box at times. Our tee time was for 18 holes (twice around the 9 hole course) and this was confirmed by the worker taking payments when we checked in. We paid $40 for the round initially, but were tracked down at the turn and asked to pay for the second round. Unclear why we couldn't pay for the entire 18 holes at once, when our scheduled tee time was for 18.
Pete Gauthier: Best staff I've met so many great people there
John Zabroski: Great shape. The fourth hole has a new cart path right in the middle of the fairway which is totally nuts, but otherwise there are only a few things I'd like to see improved, like the second tee box should probably use Penncross seed to handle shade better.Overall, if you're local, you love this course, but I wouldn't drive an hour to play here.
Craig Sanford: Starter very helpful when my second player failed to show. Course in decent shape considering the extreme heat we've had in the area. My two players I joined with were friendly and gave alot of insight where I wasn't familiar with the fairways or greens. Good day in all..
Roberto Perez: Easy to play and golf...it meets exactly all expectation as far as what you paid for... greens and tee boxes could use some work however they are functional and serve their purpose...
Lukas Shannon: Great nine hole course not too far from Boston. They are extremely accommodating and great to actually book with them by calling rather than online.
Justin R: Had great time @CedarGlennGolfCourse today. Great 9 holes track.
Mike: Great course and great staff! Very accommodating.
Bobby Conlon: Nice course, well maintained and great prices. E walked but will ride next time.
Kory S: Great place to learn the game. Some nice holes.. laid back 9 holes
Joseph Zero: Worst conditions I’ve ever seen on a golf course, if you’re looking to improve your game, don’t come here.
Mitchell Gaynor: Played a league here this summer (via Spark.Golf) and it's a fun little course. Holes 6,7,8 provide some good scoring opportunities and 2 is a pretty easy par 5 as long as you hit the fairway with your teeshot.The conditions vary wildly from week to week, sometimes well manicured fairways and teeboxes, others you're hitting your driver out of mud and putting through a minefield of divots on the greens so there's something left to be desired especially considering for a similar price you can play Kings Rail or Sagamore Springs nearby.The bar is limited and I've never inquired about food but assume it isn't much to write home about as I've never seen anyone eating here.All in all it's a fine little muni course, easy to get a tee time on and reasonably priced. The staff seem hit or miss, some excited to see new faces, others scowling if you dare ask for a cart after 4 pm but hey that's just the north shore charm for ya haha.I live nearby and will probably play many future rounds here out of convenience, but probably wouldn't drag my city friends out here for a round. Hope it improves over time.
Pat Jurgens: Course is in good shape and wasn't busy today. Got 3 pars out of 9 holes, which is good for me!
Ernest Sherman: AWSOME GREAT DAY GREAT WEATHER
Robert Lucchesi: Great course for beginners
Bob Marcinko: Getting better cut down a lot of trees hopefully get some sun on greens I dont know why when you call for a tee time you have to pay up front so if im playing with a foursome I have to pay for 3 people out of my pocket till I get money 3 days later no other course play does THIS it's stupid
Michael Saporito: Nice course. Good deals for kids weekend afternoons.
Robert Hassell: Needs irrigation.
Mark Ferragamo: Greens are horrible! There doing a lot of work there!
Kevin Strum: Great local, casual, no frills place to go. You can work on your game at a bargain price. Can't wait until I can have a beer or two and chill on the patio.
Christopher Fioravanti: You would be better off putting on an unpaved road
