St. Helens Golf Course was established in 1959 and has been operated by the current ownership for 12 years. The course is immaculately kept by a small crew of dedicated people who all have a stake in its success. It is one of the last "secret gems" left in the Greater Portland area, is a good test for even the best of golfers, and is a mere 35 minutes from downtown. The fees are a bargain - a refreshing change for those people who are tired of spending $50 or more for a round of golf.

Although some players tend to consider 9-hole courses less than worthy of their time and money, this one can change your opinion. Accomplished players will be suprised by the challenge the course poses - it's real defense being the quick, contoured greens - while the average golfer will not be faced with the disheartening task of playing yet another golf course that prides itself solely on its length. We are far enough away from the city to offer old-fashioned professional service to our customers. There are no blow horns or traffic cops here: our marshals help you look for your ball, not just tell you that you need to hurry up and find it.

The putting green is well maintained and is good practice for the course. The clubhouse has all the amenities a golfer needs. Clubs, apparel, food, and your favorite beverage are all available.St Helen's #8 seen from the back of the greenHole #8 is a downhill drive with sparse trees to the right and heavy trees to the left. The fairway opens up to an approach shot over a pond that guards the entire front of the green. There are no bunkersThe green on hole #7 is reachable in one and is a great opportunity for an eagle (or double eagle if you're lucky.) The fairway dips sharply down and then up about half way to a green that is protected by two pot bunkers on the right side.St Helen's #3: photo from the back of the greenThe fairway on hole #3 rolls and pitches to a relatively flat landing area about 140 yards from the green. Your approach shot is slightly uphill and over a creek and log barrier to an undulating green without much depth. Too much club will place you on thThe green on no. 2 is very large so watch for pin placement.The second hole is a straight-ahead par 3 with one green-side bunker to the right.Green #1: The green will be difficult for most golfers to hit in two which will leave an uphill approach shot. There are no bunkers on this hole.Hole #1 is a long dogleg left with two ravines that cut across the fairway approximately 200 yards from the tee and another 100 yards from the green.

    I played this course a few years back and thought it was horrible, just went back this weekend and they have made great improvements. Definetly not the best course in the worls but is a great laid back course in dececent shape and the price tag is low as well.
