Excellent Course!
Pros: This course is tucked away on a beautiful piece of land outside the city of August. This course has a lot of pros.
1. Excellent, brand new cement tee pads for both the long and short positions.
2. Excellent shot variety, both open, wooded, left to right, and right to left, uphill, downhill....basically everything you need for a challenging course.
3. The baskets are brand new and in excellent condition and there are nice bridges and seats on every hole.
4. The clubhouse is awesome! food and drink for a price, awesome rocking chairs and a deck for relaxation. 5. Some of the open holes actually have the 10 meter circle cut lower to help you gauge the distance of your putt. Overall, this is a great course and definitely worth visiting. The owners of this land definitely take excellent care of this course.
Also, a lot of the baskets are set on minor elevation changes with a lot of pine needles around. Make sure you place your upshot nicely if you want to make par.

Cons: None.
Other Thoughts: This course is tucked away nicely and is a great place to play a beautiful round, then kick up your feet and chill out on the porch in a rocking chair.
Oh, and I actually saw a porcupine near the brush-line off of hole 4!!!

Almost there!
Pros: The white course (short tees) is very well done, the holes are open, mostly clean shots, very enjoyable for players of any level. The fields are well maintained and the fairways are clean. Great use of elevation changes and natural features. Good risk/reward course also.
Cons: The blue course (long tees) will be a great course when finished. The majority of the wooded holes (6-18) need some work to remove overhanging limbs from the ideal flight lines. Many a good drive will be cut down by leaves and branches, leaving players frustrated often. A few unnecessary trees in front of the tee box on holes which are already challenging enough to hit the fairways. The roughs on this course are VERY rough, and a slight kick off the fairway will result in a difficult outshot as you have to negotiate thick shule to save 3 or 4. A good amount of brush clearing would alleviate this problem.
Other Thoughts: All told, this course has a unique and challenging layout, which tests all the shots in your bag. I prefer longer courses, so it's uncharacteristic for me to say this, but I much prefer the short tees on this course because it presents a much more complete course.

Played: 38 Reviewed: 10 Exp: 2.8 Years
Pros: Exceptional course. So much care and professional landscaping went into the construction of this course. No expense was spared on drainage, culverts, bridges and surfacing. Wooded holes often have shade grass amongst the trees, which really pulls together the holes as a comfortable easily shot-navigated fairway, instead of just a rough cleared extention of the woods. The best feature of the design, in my opinion, is that trees are used only in moderation as obstacles. There is plenty of technical challenge without the need to constantly have to thread the needle. I hit my share of trees, but the layout is such that I never felt uncomfortable unloading a full swing from the tees or fairways. I'm not sure I swore even once on this course? Overall a very high, quality, level of enjoyment and challenge. This course is clearly one of the elite in the state.
The course is laid out linearly instead of back and forth through the woods - Rarely can you see one fairway from another. This makes for no noise or visual distractions to contend with fro other course-goers. Safety concern over disc air-traffic is non existent. Overall, this feature really adds nice seclusion, almost like having your own private course.

Cons: Really none that are of any concern. The clubhouse is gorgeous, but only functionally stocked with a small rack of discs. Being new, there are a couple of spots that could use some of the underbrush bordering the fairways thinned a little. Hole 2 might be the only obvious one, most other holes there is little hardship in searching for wayward shots. There are established walk-ways on many of the holes, often surfaced with stone. A couple aren't yet and would benefit from it to sure up the footing - Hole 17, for instance, plays along a left sloping surface that was a bit greasy of a traverse on the day we went.
Other Thoughts: Before heading into the woods, the course starts with 4 of the first 5 holes on prolific, well groomed, field. Personally, I'm a big proponent of always having some grip-n-rip holes mixed in - Who doesn't like to rip off a few long ones - this course delivers that chance. I pity the person who mows it all though.
We had the pleasure of meeting and chatting with Bob Grieg the father of this disc-enthusiastic father and son owned/operated course - Personable owners always enhance the experience.
Favorite holes: 13 & 14 white - both beg for a long S-curve threaded through the trees. 18 white is like throwing up an elevator shaft, perfect for my 166 vulcan.
Least favorite: #6 because I just can't make a disc do what I want on this hole - not really the hole's fault, I suppose.

Pros: Beginning with hole 6, the layout is exceptional. Lots of variety, interesting and unique holes, elevation, and beautiful scenery. The course has a nice clubhouse as well as nice signs & pads at every hole. As you'd expect at a new course, the baskets are in great shape.
Cons: The field holes (1-5) need some work to make them more interesting. There are at least three (16% of the course!) where you throw straight at the basket.
Other Thoughts: Well worth the trip if you are within a couple hours of here, or if you can add it to a road trip with the other highly rated courses near 95. This is a great course, and I predict it will evolve into 4.5 stars as they figure out what to do with the open fields. $5 was very fair for such a gorgeous property.

Pros: This course is my absolute favorite in the area to play. When I play with my boyfriend he gets the challenge he seeks from the back tees and I can play right along with him on a course more my speed from the white tees. Its scenic and naturally beautiful, vastly different types of terrain with the first 5 field holes to the wooded holes also plenty of elevation changes, lots of old growth trees and a nice brook that winds its way through the course. Being new everything is top notch from the baskets to the uniquely shaped concrete tee pads. The owners are super friendly and the clubhouse is beautiful has all the amenities one could want.
Cons: tough question...I cant think of much with the exception of some prickly bushes if you throw off of the fairway but the fairways are wide enough were you really should not be in there anyhow.
Other Thoughts: brand new this year and the word has to get out. This course is fantastic and is a must play for all!!!

A Must Play Course in Maine
Pros: Both the Long boxes and the Short Boxes present challenging shots. Even with 2 sets of boxes, the shots are not just short vs. long, they are COMPLETELY different angles and shots. The owners are exceptionally nice people who honestly value input from others. FAMILY FRIENDLY course, and a cool course dog! BEAUTIFUL club house, and a great walk in the woods!
Cons: Could use some distance signs for the White Tees.
Other Thoughts: Tough to find anything negative to say about this course. The owners are truly interested in raising the bar for what should be expected from courses in Maine. This was a great experience to play, and I look forward to going back again!
