Sunday River at Sunday River Resort Golf Club

Sunday River, carved into the rugged Maine landscape near Newry, is a testament to golf's enduring appeal in unexpected places. Designed by Robert Trent Jones Jr. in the late 20th century, the course presents a modern take on mountain golf.

The course snakes through dramatic elevation changes. Jones crafted a playable but challenging layout, favoring shot-makers comfortable with uneven lies and blind tee shots. While not a championship venue, Sunday River provides a stern test for amateurs and recreational players alike.

Nestled amongst the popular ski resort, the club and course are a hidden gem. With its family friendly and approachable atmosphere, Sunday River offers a tranquil escape amongst Maine’s scenic vistas. Its signature 18th hole provides spectacular views of the surrounding mountains, which are best enjoyed while sipping a local Maine craft brew.
