Mactaquac is the prettiest ground the club plays on and the one that punishes a wide throw hardest. Nine baskets, twenty-seven grass tees — three lengths on every hole, from 141 feet up to 551 — which means the same nine holes can be a gentle afternoon or a genuinely long round depending on which pads you choose.
Most of it is open. Two holes finish in the woods and one is entirely in them, with the basket sitting on a slope steep enough that a putt left short does not stay short. The Sunday singles league rotates through here.
