The beautiful and historic seaside community of Round Hill in South Dartmouth, MA, boasts a challenging 9-hole golf course with 5 sets of tees that stretches to 3200+ yards with a slope and rating of 35.7/125. Originally designed by Robert Trent Jones, the course includes a varying hole layout, magnificent ocean views, and a signature island green.
