Our
History
In May 1926 James H. Hudson and A. S. Eldridge, both golf enthusiasts
from Guilford, were seeking a spot on which they could practice their game. The Wharff Farm was suggested and
after looking over the grounds they concluded that this was an ideal place for a golf
course.
In less than an hour Mr. Hudson had raised the money among Guilford business
men to purchase the property. The Wharff farm was comprised of 165 acres situated on the north side of the
Guilford to Dover-Foxcroft Road – about 1.75 miles from Guilford Village.
The farm buildings were remodeled to create a pro shop and club house. A
nine-hole golf course was developed. In 1970 a fire destroyed the farm buildings and a new modern split-level
clubhouse was built.
