Golf in Waterville

Waterville is a Kennebec County city on the Kennebec River, home to Colby College — one of New England's finest liberal arts institutions — whose hilltop campus provides both a visual landmark and a cultural anchor for the broader community. The city's Franco-American heritage, rooted in the textile and paper industries, gives it an identity more layered than the compact downtown might suggest. Colby's museum of art, its concert series, and the student presence give Waterville a vitality unusual for a Maine city of its size. Waterville Country Club, in neighboring Oakland on Messalonskee Lake, serves the Waterville area's recreational golf needs.
