Our Golf Guru Says:

Named the #1 course in Rhode Island with public access by Golfweek in 2004. You'll enjoy sweeping views of The Sakonnet Passage, Atlantic Ocean, and Narragansett Bay. Being so close to the water gives the course a links-style design as well as introducing winds which change from day to day. Relatively open fairways and large greens make this course a pleasure for all golfing levels.

From Newport National:

The Orchard Course features greens, tees and fairways consisting of 100% seaside bent grass, and grand, swaying fescue often exceeding 4' in length. The fairways and greens were designed to play fast and firm; the greens are undulating and well-bunkered, and pitch-and-run shots will often be required to save par after a missed green. Reminiscent of some of Irelands finest golf links, The Orchard Course will play a little differently everyday depending on the famous Aquidneck Island winds.
