The course was designed by Donald Ross, the ‘Father of American Golf Course Architecture’, in the late 1920’s. Considered a Ross gem, the course routing reflects his design excellence: at Sunapee very little walking is required from one green to the next tee. And true to the Ross design philosophy, the "course can take care of every class of golfer". Fair but challenging, each golf hole presents a different problem. One is never bored when confronted by the subtleties of a master such as Ross.
In recent years, Sunapee benefited from an extensive improvement plan that restored many of the original 1920's features. Significant tree removal returned sweeping fairway and mountain views. Greens regained their expansive character. Long buried bunkers were unearthed. And the course now boasts four sets of tees per hole. The improvements are a sublime testament to the marriage of classic golf with contemporary play.
