Description
9 holes are across the bridge and the remaining 9 are clustered in the woods on the tennis court side of the pond (but not exactly near the courts). This course is not yet permanent and improvements will be continuous and contingent on a positive relationship with the city of Boston, park advocates and park users permitted events curtailed during road construction so signage and tee markers limited. See facebook page under Links/Files for more information. COURSE MAP (AND PATIENCE) OR COURSE GUIDE WILL BE REQUIRED TO PLAY. Tours are available almost nightly.
