HistóriaMaine Seeks Status as Northeast’s “Golfiest” State
Portage Hills Country Club is situated within a broader regional golf movement as Maine pushes forward with its recognition as the Northeast’s “Golfiest” state for 2026. The state has received this designation from the USGA, highlighting its rich history, top-tier public and resort courses, and varied landscapes that appeal to both casual and competitive golfers. With over 130 courses across coastal, inland, and mountainous terrain, Maine’s golf culture continues to gain prominence (travellingforbusiness.co.uk). As a local nine‑hole venue nestled in Portage Lake, Portage Hills Country Club benefits from this growing attention to Maine’s golfing appeal.
