Drummond Island Yacht Haven, Inc.

Nine that saves time and $$$ . . .
Where else can you golf where deer and airplanes are considered natural obstacles? Drummond Island Golf Club, a nine-hole course near the municipal airport. Built in the early 1960s, it is a no-frills course that has a runway running through a fairway. Watch out for landing planes!

But it is a fun little course to play — whether tuning up for a challenge at The Rock or playing it over and over as many times as desired — at very reasonable rates. For $20, a player can play all day — as many holes as he or she can get in — before the sunsets. The record for holes played in a day is 73 holes, set by three men in 1988.

The fairways are not irrigated.

“ It’s very similar to the old courses in England,” according to a course attendant. “It’s deceptive because of the lies you get out here. The main thing is that you have to watch out for aircraft. The airport was here first.”
