Braintree Municipal Golf Course

Staff was incredibly rude. Wouldn’t allow my wife to have a drink and drive the cart with me. She was told to leave and they screamed “no spectators” at us. Forced me to get a cart with a complete stranger even though I prepaid through Golf Now. Stranger was smoking weed in the cart, and had to periodically blow into breathalyzer throughout round. Stranger also told me he paid half of what I paid for the round. Horrible conditions, and incredibly slow pace of play. Stay away! George Wright, Franklin Park, Putterham, and even Newton Commonwealth are much better. Don’t waste your money!

Braintree Muni can be considered a hidden gem. Depending on day/time, you can play/ride for under $60. Overall the course is always well maintained (granted: for a public), the routing is varied interesting and fun, and the staff is helpful while staying out of the way (what I am looking for). Unfortunately, it does get crowded in the summer, so you may be playing a 5hr round. I'd still recommend an 18 to any and all.

The course was a lot better than I had anticipated since it rained the night before. It had drained well and with the exception of muddy spots in a few low areas of the course, it was relatively dry.

greens were cut and rolled and in great shape, there were some wet areas in fairways but course was in good shape

Played Braintree a few days before it closed for the season. Asked the Pro Shop if there were any temporary greens and was told no. Also asked about aerated greens and was told the greens were rolling good, no problem. However, there were 2 temp greens within the first 4 holes. Also greens were aerated late in the season (late November) and had not healed. Terrible greens situation.

Played the course the last week before winter shutdown. Very affordable, however disappointed in staff. I asked if there were any temp greens and the answer was no. However, the course had 2 temps in the first 4 holes. Also, greens were aerated late, in November and had not healed.

Not worth playing this late in the year.

I was happy to have a nice day to play so late in the season, but its a long course for me from the white tees. I like Braintree, but my game isn't long enough for it. I'll come back and maybe try one of their shorter length tees next summer.
