I am looking for info on courses in northern N.E.
Does anyone have any info on any of the following
resort/courses? Sutton, N.H. (Country Club Of N.H.),
Killington VT., Straton Mt.,VT., Woodstock, VT., or
any other courses/resorts in the northern N.E. area
that have golf packages available (lodging and golf
at reduced rates).
Thanks
Gene

| 118.1 | Stratton Info | PLANET::STANZ | Tue Jun 09 1987 23:39 | 24 | |
I have booked a few days this July at Stratton. Got a brochure as
an insert in Golf Digest. It isn't cheap, but....
Daily rates per person run from $75-$80 midweek. This includes your
room, a round of golf and a cart, plus club storage, a visor and
bag tags.
They have a Golf School, which is offered in a weekend package,
or a 5 day package. 2 day weekend is $390 PPDO, and the 5 day pkg
is about $650 PPDO. Lunch is included, plus the school, videotape
analysis of your game (I'm too embarassed for that!), and your golf
and cart. Meals are your responsibility on all packages.
The course is supposed to be great, along with the scenery. We (mu
wife and I) have booked the plain ol' Golf Package for 4 days midweek.
That's all we felt we could spring for.
They have 27 holes, all designed by Geoffrey Cornish. There is a
"Lake" 9, a "Forest" 9, and a "Mountain" 9. We probably will not
try the "Mountain" 9.............
Regards,
Stan Znamierowski

Hi Gene,
I have played the Country Club of NH and it has an excellent
layout but I've heard that they have lost most of their greens
to winter kill. Another course that has lost most of its
greens is Quechee. This is an excellent resort but the conditions
this year are not so good. Maybe you could keep these resorts
in mind for another year.

| 118.3 | Samoset in Me. | MTBLUE::FREEMAN_KEVI | Mon Jul 13 1987 14:47 | 11 | |
Checkout the "Pebble Beach" o` de Great White North aka. The Samoset
Resort in Rockland Me. off U.S. Rte 1. It and Poland Springs in
the "Olden Days" train loads of "Outa Stata's" use ta come up hea!
I guess they are more resorts than most if you trace there Heritage
back. There is also a new and very difficult (Narrow) course at
Sugarloaf in Caribassit Vally (sp), it's more noted for it's winter
skiing, but is now claiming a 4 season Resort, tennis, hiking etc.
Samosets the better deal as you get the best of the seafood in the
N.E. and Camden is just next door (Payton Place film site). More
info drop a line. NM%RANGLY::FREEMAN_KEVI

| 118.4 | Old Orchard Beach | NEDVAX::SNIDER | Larry | Sat Jul 18 1987 16:53 | 6 |
I'm going to Old Orchard Beach in Maine around Labor Day for 10
days. I've got my mirror sunglasses already packed so I'm all set
for the beach. I'm also going to take the clubs. Any suggestions
on where to play? How are the greens fees?
