Detailed description of Ledges Golf Club | Ledges Golf Course

The Ledges Golf Club, is a Semi-Private, 18 hole golf course located in York, Maine.

The Ledges Golf Course was designed by William Bradley Booth. The course opened for play in 1999.

The terrain dictated the look of the course. Elevation changes allowed placing some greens and tees on elevated locations. 

 # 1 is a par-4 dogleg left that measures 442 yards from the back tees (345 from the front)

# 6 has a rolling fairway that gets narrower the closer you get to the green. The green has three tiers add to the fun. You'll need careful club selection to get close to the pin.

# 8 is the signature hole, a par-3 featured in many photographs of The Ledges. Water is always in play here on this hole that measures 220 yards from the back tees and 113 from the front. 

# 9  is a par-4 dogleg right, measuring 380 yards from the back and 265 from the front, that heads back to the clubhouse.

# 11 is another picturesque par-3, measuring 210 yards from the back and 132 from the front. A pond on the right protects the left front of the green.

#17 is the longest par-4, measuring 465 yards from the back and 318 from the front. This hole has the best views on the course, including the three bridges to Portsmouth, N.H., and a huge smokestack off in the distance. You're headed downhill here.

#18 is a par-5 that some say is the most difficult finisher in New England. It has monster length: 618 yards from the back tees and 411 from the front. This is a hard dogleg right that has a 200-yard uphill stretch once you make the turn. On top of that, you start out with a tee shot over water. It's a 150-yard carry from the mid-length. From the tips, it's a 230-yard carry. To compound the challenge, about 170 yards short of the green, there's more water. If you lay up short of this hazard, your third shot will be at least 175 yards to the center of the green, including about 60 yards over water.
