A well-connected golf friend of mine asked me what was the most highly rated course I hadn’t yet played and the answer was (until today) Seminole Golf Club. This hole in my golf resume got filled thanks to the connections of my friend. Designed by Donald Ross in 1929, Seminole is consistently ranked as one […]
Despite growing up in New England, I never heard of the Eastward Ho Golf Course. I think frankly without the golf course raters I would not have found my way to this beautiful property.
