The 203-acre facility in Southern Maine features a meticulously maintained 18-hole public championship golf course. During the design and construction process, they were careful to maintain valuable wildlife habitat important to local moose, wild turkey, fox and deer populations. They worked closely with state and local officials to limit the environmental impact on beautiful forest and river areas.
