The Best course in New England., Jun 30, 2004

reviewer: T. Roberts from Santa Fe, NM

The 18 holes at Myopia are the best you'll find anywhere in the world. If you're lucky enough to play there, you'll never want to leave. The magnificent track laid out over some of the most beautiful country MA has to offer is quite a sight. It isn't easy either.
