Edgartown Golf Club

Edgartown Golf Club occupies a scenic parcel on Martha's Vineyard, situated near the historic town of Edgartown on the island's southeastern shore. The course was designed by Cornelius Lee and reflects the characteristic landscape of the Vineyard, with gently rolling terrain, native grasses, and coastal vegetation that define the playing corridors. The layout takes advantage of the island's natural topography, offering golfers a mix of open and tree-lined holes that require strategic thinking rather than overwhelming length. The course serves both seasonal visitors and year-round island residents, functioning as a community gathering place in addition to its role as a golf facility. Martha's Vineyard's relatively temperate maritime climate allows for an extended playing season, and Edgartown benefits from this accessibility. The routing moves through varied terrain, with elevation changes that provide views of the surrounding landscape and occasional glimpses of nearby water. As a semi-private facility, Edgartown Golf Club balances member play with public access, making it one of the more accessible options for visitors to the island. The clubhouse maintains a casual, welcoming atmosphere consistent with the island's understated character. While not a tournament venue of national prominence, the course hosts local competitions and club events that are central to the Vineyard's golfing community. The design emphasizes playability across skill levels while preserving the natural beauty that draws people to Martha's Vineyard.
