Give Our Readers An Overview of the Golf Course/Property Boothbay Harbor Country Club is an 18-hole course redesigned by Bruce Hepner in 2013. The original 9-hole course was built in 1921 with Wayne Stiles and John Van Kleek as the architects. It was expanded to 18 holes in 1999. Extensive renovations began after the course was purchased in 2013 by now owner Paul Coulombe. The entire course has been expertly redeveloped into one of the finest golf courses in the New England region.

What Is The Signature, Most Talked About, or Most Photographed Hole? The 8th Hole @ Boothbay Harbor CC is the signature hole of the course. This medium length par 4 begins with a great view of the award-winning clubhouse then test player's accuracy off the tee between deep bunkers on the right and a water hazard on the left. It then sets players up for a mid-short iron approach to a difficult, narrow green guarded by a flowing creek in front and flat-bottomed bunkers behind. The difficult approach is accompanied by a beautiful backdrop of local flowering bushes set along rock outcroppings.
