The appropriate place to start your event is in a separate cocktail area with a view of the Boston skyline and our beautiful golf course. In a devastating fire in 1962, the old Oakley Clubhouse was destroyed. It was replaced by a new clubhouse, which was rebuilt in 1998 to match the original Bulfinch building's lines. The Club's efforts to maintain the charm of a New England rural estate while delivering best-in-class country club accommodations are being bolstered by the 2018-19 clubhouse renovations. The configuration of the course has remained unchanged since the last Ross re-design in 1910. In 2004, the Club hired restoration architects to look over the century-old Ross plans and realign the bunkers and greens to match the Master's layout. Oakley is a landlocked city club. Because our architect's greatest talent was his ability to route fairways, our 85 precious acres allow us an extraordinarily efficient 6,000 yard course!
