"We’re thrilled to be recognized by Golf Digest,” said Paul Coulombe. “It’s a testament to our team’s dedication and the support of our members. My investment in the golf course over the last decade has truly been a labor of love. It’s wonderful to see that commitment acknowledged with this recognition."

Below are quotes from a Golf Digest panelist.

“Boothbay Harbor provides a memorable journey through mountain-like terrain featuring fairways that are cut off by hazards forcing high risk-reward opportunity, and ledges, towering elevations, and scattered hazards throughout the course that require a fair amount of shot options exploration even for scratch golfers. Each hole presents strategic choices that keep you engaged throughout your round.

“Aesthetically, this beauty is nothing short of breathtaking, with picturesque landscaping that is really second to no course I’ve played in New England. The natural beauty of the terrain features vibrant flowers and lush greenery throughout the course. Each hole is framed by the stunning vistas, including a stunning view back to the gorgeous clubhouse viewed over a few holes, that make playing here more than aesthetically pleasing.

“With its modern, strategic design, stunning aesthetics, and jaw-dropping landscape, this course deserves a high rating as one of Maine’s best.

“This is my new highest-ranked aesthetics course with 7 waterfalls, manicured flower beds, beautiful quarter-way houses, and majestic views surrounding. There is a tremendous variety of elevation change along with an island tee box, differing green contours and outstanding water utilization. Hole #4 is reminiscent of #14 at Bandon Trails.

“It is truly one of those golf courses you could play every day and not get tired of it. It can definitely be classified as a hidden gem by all standards. Aesthetically, the golf course was nothing short of
fantastic.”
