In Quincy, near the Blue Hills Reservation, is Granite Links Golf Club.

To get to the parking lot and clubhouse, from I-93 north, take the exit for Furnace Brook Parkway, travel around the rotary, then take the exit just before going under the highway, then travel along a road parallel to the highway, bearing right at a fork (if you take the left fork you will end up back on the highway) then, at the end of the road, take a sharp left onto Willard Street, then cross the highway and follow Willard Street parallel to the highway to the intersection with Ricciuti Drive, then drive to Ricciuti Drive to an intersection with the sign for Granite Links on the left. Take this road and drive to the parking lot.

The club has private membership; however, they allow non-mumbers to tee off and use some of the facility. The club maintains 27 holes that are interchangeable in forming courses.

The course was started in 2003. Previously, this area was a mixture of old granite quarries and landfill. Some of the fill came from the tunnel construction in Boston known as the "Big Dig."

Golf Digest once included it in a list of the 100 best golf courses in the U.S.
