Overview
Northeast Harbor makes terrific use of the idyllic setting in the Maine woods near the ocean on Mount Desert Island. The course is short by modern standards, but don’t let that fool you—the small, devilish greens have some severe movement, demanding that you stay below the hole to score. The club is private during the summer months but is open for public play during the spring and fall. Along with Kebo Valley near Bar Harbor, Northeast Harbor GC is the best option on Mount Desert Island. Consider playing both on a trip to Acadia National Park.

“Short but fun course on Mount Desert Island. About 5 or 6 blind shots and you better hit it straight as the rough it quite penal. Usually a lost ball. That being said, this course has a great feel and is very fun to play."

“Short by modern standards, but very interesting land movement, with subtle green contours. A very fun golf course that I would love to both learn to play on, and retire on. Beware of unforgiving granite lurking on mishits, but also enjoy the wild blueberry bushes found while walking to your ball."
