Detailed description

Causeway Club, is a Semi-Private, 9 hole golf course located in Southwest Harbor, Maine.

The Causeway Club was founded in 1920. The golf course opened for play in 1923. The course was designed by Alonzo Yates.

The Causeway Club golf course nestles against the shores of Norwood Cove. Acadia National Park, Flying Mountain, Beech Mountain and Acadia Mountain serve as spectacular backdrops.

While length is not a major factor, the wrong club or shot selection will be penalized. Water can come into play on four of the nine holes.

The course takes pride in their small greens of velvet bent grass. Velvet has the finest texture of all the bent grasses and is one of the oldest grasses used for golf courses in Europe.

The Causeway Club golf course is a link style course. There are extra tee locations so that the course can be looped twice for an 18-hole round.

Par for the course is 34. From the back tees the course plays to 2266 yards. From the forward tees the course measures 2126 yards. The longest hole on the course is # 1, a par-5 that plays to 394 yards. The shortest hole on the course is # 9, a par-3 that plays to 133 yards from the back tees.

Watch out for # 5, a 388 yard par-5 challenge and the #1 handicap hole on the course. The easiest hole is # 6, a 140 yard par-3.
