About Juniper Hill Golf Course
Juniper Hill Golf Course is a family-owned public golf course with a rich history of 93 years. It offers two distinct 18-hole courses: Riverside, a spacious course alongside the Assabet River, and Lakeside, a narrow, tree-lined course with views of Lake Chauncy. Reviewers appreciate the beauty of both courses, noting that Riverside is particularly well-maintained and presents a fair challenge. Lakeside is also praised for being in great shape and featuring friendly staff. While many enjoy the overall experience, some have expressed concerns about the condition of the greens, especially after recent aeration. Despite these issues, the scenic environment and good amenities make Juniper Hill Golf Course a recommended destination for golfers. Visitors often travel from afar to enjoy a round here, highlighting its appeal across Massachusetts. Both courses are well-maintained and fun to play, with Riverside being more forgiving for the average golfer and Lakeside being a bit more narrow. The courses are generally in excellent condition, with well-kept greens and fairways. Pace of play is usually good, and the staff is friendly. The only minor complaint is that beer is served in plastic cups at the turn or beer cart.
Fall golf is exceptional at JuniperHills. I wish all starters were as professional and friendly as starter Mike!!! After the front nine Mike checked in with us to ensure our experience was good. Every staff interaction from checking in to the beverage cart person and at the turn food staff were friendly, polite and added to a pleasant day of golf.
I'll start by saying that I range between a 95-100 score on the golf card over 18 holes. Both courses are well maintained and fun to play across. I find Riverside more forgiving for the average golfer and Lakeside to be a bit more narrow. Regardless I love playing there.
Came here in July 2025 with a foursome and played the Riverside course. Shot the best round I’ve had this year, credit is due to the generally wide open fairways and the greens rolling very true and overall the course was very well maintained. The course was busy on a Sunday and we are always in sight of the group in front and behind us, however, everyone was very pleasant and polite and generally didn’t have any issues with pace of play.
