Overview
This is the definition of a great classic hidden gem with an original design by Donald Ross and later work done by Seth Raynor. The compact routing makes great use of land movement and boasts challenging green complexes. The fabulous inland holes include the tremendous 165-yard Volcano hole at the eighth. The back 9 plays in and around lowland marshy areas and has a flat but great collection of holes where you navigate in and around the marshlands.

“The Misquamicut Club is a quiet enclave in a fantastic New England beach town. The holes visible from Misquamicut Beach epitomize American coastal golf, but the inland holes around the clubhouse are wildly undulated and provide welcome contrast. There are old holes here not replicated anywhere in America and despite their differences, the holes fit together and challenge every part of a player’s game. The view from the 11th tee is unmatched in Rhode Island."

“One of the most unique and beautiful courses in New England. The front nice is reminiscent of Eastward Ho! and the back nine Hyannisport."

“The Misquamicut Club is an old school, classic Rhode Island Club and Course. The Adirondack chairs by the clubhouse provide lovely views of the water and a fine place to enjoy a beverage. The course is very good, but probably not great. Definitely an enjoyable round with some interesting shots and holes."

“The Misquamicut Club is a great Donald Ross layout. Lots of variety of holes and although relatively short at 6226 yards, it is proof that you don't need excessive length to be a high quality golf course."

“What a blast to play! Could enjoy this one day in and day out. Wild fairway undulations and very hilly terrain on the first 11 holes. Back nine moves to flat seaside land after the picturesque 11th. Course finishes with a nice up hill par three. The course has a mix of styles as architects from Ross to Raynor and several others had their hand in the design and modifications over the years. Golf as it was meant to be played."

“Misquamicut is an extremely private and extremely fun old-school Donald Ross design located on the southern Rhode Island coastline. With the first 10 holes on the high ground and holes 11-17 literally on the beach, there's strong variety here and a number of extremely interesting holes. Seth Raynor also designed part of the course and some of the best holes can be found from him. I'd say this course is easily top 4 or 5 in Rhode Island but doesn't get the credit it deserves because so few people have played it."
