I played the Newport Golf Course for the first time this week. I will definitely make plans to return there. The course had a good mixture of challenging and straight-forward holes. The bunkers were plentiful (I found several,) and the Sugar River swallowed up a couple of balls, but the opportunities were there to either score well or put up a big number.
More skilled players (scratch to 4-5 Hdcp.) may find the course less challenging because a number of the doglegs can be cut, but as a higher scoring player, this course was well worth my time. The fees were also very attractive.
