Boston Golf Club

I enjoyed a wonderful golf day with friends at the Boston Golf Club, a quiet beauty hidden in the heart of Hingham. It arose from the woods and a former sand pit at Penniman Hill (left), as these Google Earth pictures from 2001 and 2020 show. Slide the slider left and right to see before and after views:

The club house, marked in red, sits here at the center of Main, Cushing and Gardner Streets. Zoom in on the image to see street names and places.

And here’s a few scenes from our round that highlight some of the premodern touches that give the course a peaceful and historic feel:

Very fun time on a beautiful course.

For a hole-by-hole flyover and description of the architecture, the Club has created this wonderful fly over narrated by the architect Gil Hanse.

It gives you the sense of being there.
