Woodlands Club





About this course
The Woodlands Club occupies rolling terrain in Falmouth, a town just north of Portland along the coast of southern Maine. The course sits amid mixed hardwood and conifer forest typical of the region, with elevation changes that provide natural movement through the property. The layout takes advantage of the wooded character while opening strategic corridors for play, creating definition through the tree-lined corridors rather than relying on extensive bunkering or water features. The routing works through the topography with holes that rise and fall across the landscape, asking players to manage uphill and downhill lies while navigating doglegs shaped by the forest edges. Several holes play along ridgelines or drop into lower sections of the property, and the natural contours influence both tee shot placement and approach angles. The design emphasizes position over distance, with premium on accuracy given the tree-framed fairways. As a private club in the Portland area, Woodlands serves a membership drawn from the surrounding communities and maintains a traditional club atmosphere. The course provides a straightforward test of golf suited to the New England setting, where seasonal play and maintenance practices reflect the regional climate. The club operates within the established network of private courses in southern Maine, offering members a home course that balances challenge with playability across varied skill levels.

Getting there
The journey to Woodlands Club begins at Portland International Jetport (PWM), Maine's primary gateway, situated roughly twenty minutes south of Falmouth along the scenic Maine coast. Those arriving by private aircraft will find Brunswick Executive Airport (BXB) an equally convenient option, nestled just inland and offering the discretion preferred by discerning travelers. From either airport, the drive north traces the quiet roads through the forested spine of southern Maine, where the landscape gradually shifts from suburban Portland to the rolling woodlands and coastal vistas that define the region - a gentle transition that culminates at Woodlands Club, where the club's understated elegance emerges from the Maine forest as a natural extension of the landscape itself.
