Green Golf Club
Topsham
 The
Highland Green Golf Club features a challenging nine-hole
course nestled in a 650-acre expanse of Midcoast Maine. The
Scottish-style course is located on the Coastal Connector
in Topsham, Maine, and part of the Highland Green Adult Resort
Community. A lodge-style clubhouse, putting green and golf
shop are part of the facilities.
The
Club promotes ecologically sound land management and the conservation
of natural resources. Highland Green Golf Club and resort
represent an important balance between nature and planned
development.
Tom
Emery of Land Use Consultants, Inc. designed the course with
assistance from former Golf Magazine editor and New York Times
best-selling author Jim Dodson, who served as design consultant.
Dodson, who has a special affinity for the courses of Scotland
and Ireland, helped design the course as a celebration of the
great links courses “across the pond.” The course
features mounding, rolling fairways and small crowned greens.
The
course was built to blend naturally with the beautifully rugged
terrain of Midcoast Maine. Instead of bulldozing and removing
features like rock outcroppings and natural ridgelines, these
features were incorporated into the design to add to the challenge
and uniqueness of the course.
A
“shot makers” course, Highland Green Golf Club requires
players to carefully consider each shot and use every club
in the bag. Each hole has multiple tee boxes in order to provide
a challenging and enjoyable venue for golfers of all skill
levels.
A
lodge-style Clubhouse will offer additional recreational and
social opportunities for members and guests. Future Clubhouse
plans include a Scottish Pub and community meeting place.
