Merriland Farm Par 3 occupies a compact site in Wells, a coastal town in southern Maine known for its beaches and summer tourism. The course was designed by James Morrison and serves as a straightforward par-3 layout suitable for beginners, families, and golfers looking to practice their short game without the time commitment of a regulation course. The property reflects the modest, accessible character common to many New England par-3 facilities that emerged in the mid-to-late twentieth century to accommodate recreational golfers and vacationers. The routing features nine holes ranging from short pitch shots to longer iron approaches, with relatively flat terrain typical of Maine's coastal plain. The setting includes open fairways and simple green complexes that emphasize playability over strategic complexity. Mature trees frame several holes, and the overall atmosphere reflects the rural, agricultural heritage suggested by the "farm" name, though the course itself is designed primarily for golf rather than preserving working farmland. Merriland Farm functions as a community amenity and tourist destination in Wells, drawing seasonal visitors to the southern Maine coast as well as local players. The facility offers a relaxed environment for learning the game or warming up before rounds at nearby regulation courses. Its unpretentious design and maintenance reflect the practical needs of a short course serving a regional market rather than championship ambitions.
