Twin Springs Golf Course

About the club

On a Saturday morning July 29th, 1932 the Bates and Sonia families realized their dream and celebrated the grand opening of their new public golf links, much to the delight of both the local Clinton and Bolton residents. The two families converted the property formerly known as the Rauscher dairy farm into the nine hole course then known, appropriately enough, as the Mountain View Golf Links. Built adjacent to the historical Runaway Brook Golf Club, the new course offered its customers unparalleled picturesque views of the country side which also included from the sixth tee a well framed shot of Mount Wachusett. The peaceful scenery certainly provided a welcome respite from the tricky situations the course provided. Although only moderate in length, even for that period, Mountain View challenged the golfers by requiring them to navigate and survive the hilly terrain and to hit precise iron shots if they hoped to land on the smallish and occasionally severely sloped greens.
