Golfing

Golfing in the Maine Highlands offers a serene “gateway” to the outdoors, where the crisp mountain air and the scent of pine provide a refreshing backdrop for every round. From the historic links in Greenville to the hidden gems nestled near the Moose River, the region around Moosehead Lake is a premier destination for players seeking a peaceful yet challenging game.

While hitting the links in the North Woods, you can experience:

  • Scenic Mountain Courses: Play a round at the Mt. Kineo Golf Course, one of the most unique settings in New England. Accessible only by boat from Rockwood, this historic course sits at the base of the massive Mount Kineo cliffs, offering panoramic views of Moosehead Lake from every hole.

  • Championship Layouts: Discover well-maintained fairways and greens at courses like the Squaw Mountain Village Golf Course. These facilities provide a mix of open layouts and forested holes that challenge your accuracy while showcasing the natural beauty of the Maine Highlands.

  • A Relaxing Retreat: Golfing in this region is defined by its unhurried pace. It is the perfect activity to pair with a stay at our Rockwood, ME cabin lodgings, allowing you to spend your mornings on the green and your afternoons relaxing by the water or enjoying a hearty slow-cooker meal.

  • Essential Gear & Local Pro Shops: Whether you need to rent a set of clubs or pick up local advice on the greens, the pro shops in Greenville and Rockwood provide the friendly service and expertise needed to perfect your swing.

Whether you are a seasoned golfer or a casual player looking for a picturesque afternoon, the golfing scene in the Moosehead Lake area offers a majestic and quiet connection to the Maine wilderness.
