THE OAKS GOLF LINKS
🇺🇸 Somersworth, NH, USA
Designed by Brad Faxon, William Bradley Booth

The Oaks Golf Links in Somersworth occupies rolling terrain in New Hampshire's Seacoast region, designed by William Bradley Booth with input from PGA Tour player Brad Faxon. The course opened in the late 1990s as a daily-fee facility, bringing modern design sensibilities to an area with relatively few championship-length layouts. The routing takes advantage of natural elevation changes and wooded corridors typical of southern New Hampshire's landscape.
The design emphasizes strategic variety rather than penal difficulty, with multiple tee options allowing players of different abilities to navigate the property. Faxon's involvement reflects in the attention given to green complexes and short-game areas, where subtle contours and thoughtful bunkering create interest around the scoring zones. The layout moves through a mix of open and tree-lined holes, with water features coming into play on several holes.
The Oaks serves the greater Seacoast New Hampshire and southern Maine golf market, offering a full-length test in a region where public access to well-maintained courses remains valued. The facility includes practice areas and a clubhouse that supports both daily play and organized events. Its location near Dover and Portsmouth makes it accessible to both local players and visitors exploring New Hampshire's coastal communities.
