Things to do in Rhode Island, United States: The Best Golf Courses
With the perfect combination of great seaside views, colorful local culture, and endless family activities, Rhode Island is a big vacation destination in a small package. Whether you are into art and culture, beautiful seaside sights, or great family-friendly activities, there is sure to be something for you in Rhode Island. If you're staying in Newport, try a breathtaking tour of the harbor in the Schooner Madeleine, or enjoy a bit of history at Fort Adams State Park. The Newport mansions are one of the most popular attractions around, and the nearby Cliff Walk is a great place for a hike. Narragansett is home to the lovely Narragansett Town Beach and Point Judith Lighthouse, and if you hop on the Block Island Ferry you are only a short trip away from Block Island, where you can enjoy the sights of the Mohegan Bluffs or party it up at Capt. Nick's Rock and Roll Bar. Take a drive up to Providence for some great shopping at Providence Place Mall and to visit the unforgettable Roger Williams Park Zoo.

Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 19 reviews
Newport National Golf Club is one of New England's finest golf courses. Located in Middletown RI, this award winning 200-acre golf course is your number one choice for a round of golf in Rhode Island. Newport National which started out as a landscape nursery is now deemed the "Number One Public Access Course in New England," by New England Golf Monthly. Newport National is a 7,200-yard, par 72 championship golf course as well as an open space tribute to environmental sensitivity. Built to challenge golfers of every skill level, including the best in the world, this links-style course will take your breath away with its beautiful vistas of the Atlantic Ocean and the Sakonnet Passage. The fescue-lined, bentgrass fairways, tees and greens will remind you of the great courses of Ireland. The bridle trail and restored natural areas will illustrate our vision of a golf course built in harmony with the land. Golf course architects Arthur Hills and Drew Rogers used this former nursery farm and orchard as the canvas upon which to craft their masterpiece. We are honored to have you experience our addition to the rich golf heritage of Rhode Island and encourage you to see it for yourself.

I had my daughters bridal shower here at Laurel Lane Country Club on Sunday August 19th and I was blown away by the overall experience. The venue itself was exactly what I was looking for in terms of food, atmosphere, scenery and overall experience. Dale and the rest of the staff were nothing but helpful and I can’t praise them enough. Dale went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed and that everything was just perfect ! And a big kudos to Jose the chef .. the food was just phenomenal and the guests just loved the homemade cuisine ! Perfect day for a wonderful celebration!

Reviewed By 538gerryd - Satellite Beach, United States
We recently ran a golf tournament here and the cooperation and assistance of the manager and staff was fantastic! The course was in great shape and was well maintained. The Donald Ross design was open and forgiving enough for the average amateurs yet there were enough challenges for the better golfers as well. We also had a follow-on luncheon buffet at the on-site restaurant and the food was well-prepared, very tasty and reasonably priced. Triggs remains a great place in the middle of Providence to play golf!
