Front Nine
The front nine at Algonquin Golf Course draws from classic parkland tradition with subtle heathland influence. Mature trees frame wide fairways, while natural fescue adds texture and movement across the landscape. Generous off the tee, the course invites confident play, while thoughtfully shaped greens reward strategy and a creative approach. It is a welcoming start to the round, designed to be both engaging and accessible for all levels of play.
Back Nine
The back nine opens to the coast, where the course transitions into a true links-style experience. Fairways roll naturally into greens, and expansive views of Passamaquoddy Bay follow each hole. Elevation shifts and coastal winds bring a dynamic edge to the round, while the world’s highest tides shape an ever-changing shoreline. The finish is both dramatic and memorable, defined by openness, movement, and the rhythm of the sea.
