Golf in North Anson

North Anson is a Somerset County village on the Kennebec River above Madison, where the valley narrows and the forested ridges of the Kennebec highlands close in on both sides. The upper Kennebec watershed here is remote — the river corridor winds through steep terrain toward the Carrabassett Valley and Sugarloaf beyond. Diadema Golf Club serves this small community with nine holes in a landscape defined by the river and the Somerset County highlands, providing recreational golf in a part of Maine well off the primary tourism circuits and valued for its quiet remove from the busier world to the south.
