Golf in Rockport

Rockport is the quieter, more residential neighbor of Camden on the Penobscot Bay Midcoast, home to the Samoset Resort — one of Maine's most celebrated coastal properties, perched on a rocky headland above Rockport Harbor. The Samoset Golf Course is renowned among Maine golfers for its ocean views, with several holes playing directly along the Penobscot Bay shoreline in a setting that ranks among the most dramatically sited courses in New England. Rockport also hosts the Maine Media Workshops, a major photography and filmmaking school, reinforcing the Midcoast's creative identity. The town's working harbor, with its granite pier and lobster boats, provides a complement to the resort character that surrounds it.
