GREEN VALLEY COUNTRY CLUB

The rolling hills of Rhode Island's southeastern coast create natural amphitheaters for drama on this parkland layout, where mature oaks and maples frame narrow fairways that demand precision over power. The signature par-4 14th doglegs sharply around a stone wall that predates the Revolutionary War, forcing a committed draw to reach a green perched above Narragansett Bay. What elevates this daily-fee gem above typical municipal fare is the routing's clever use of elevation changes—you'll hit every club in the bag navigating the undulating terrain.
