Hole #	Par	Hole Description
1	Par 5	Great opening hole and a chance to get off to a good start. This hole has a slight dogleg to the left. The tee shot should be right of center to allow the player a good angle to the green for their second shot . An eagle is possible.
2	Par 4	A dogleg to the right with water hazards on both sides of the fairway. Most players choose to lay up with a mid to long iron and let their wedge game take them to a tricky little green. A birdie is possible.
3	Par 4	Great hole with a fantastic view of the bay. With out of bounds on the left and fairway bunkers on the right, players want to hit a fade off the tee to avoid any trouble. This should set you up for a nice approach to the green.
4	Par 3	Slightly up hill par 3 with difficulties on all sides of the green. This hole tends to play longer than it seems especially with an east wind. A par on this hole is a good score.
5	Par 5	Here is a chance to show your driving accuracy. This hole is framed with a tree line to the left and water to the right. Long ball hitters will need to split the fairway of the narrow landing area to have a go at the green and a chance for eagle.
6	Par 4	This is a straight ahead par 4 with the difficulty being at the green. After the drive most players will be hitting mid irons to a small green. Accuracy is a must. Par is a good score.
7	Par 3	Don't let the length of this hole fool you. You will have to bring your "A" short game if you want to walk away with a birdie.
8	Par 4	A difficult par 4 with prevailing winds in your face. Most players will be hitting mid to long irons into a blind green being protected by a brook that runs in front. A par is a good score.
9	Par 4	Every course needs one....a driveable par 4. The key is to carry the fairway bunker that guards the entry to this small green. From there your ball should kick left and end up on the green. Have fun!
10	Par 4	Go ahead and hit it there is plenty of room off the tee. However, the difficulty lies on your approach shot to this very difficult green. A par is a good score.
11	Par 4	This hole has been played a variety of ways. The end result being an approach shot to a very receptive green. Birdies are plentiful.
12	Par 5	Restigouche's signature golf hole. The long par 5 dogleg to the left features an island green. After the perfect drive you are faced with the decision to go for it or lay up. The rewards can be great for those lucky enough to land on the green in two.
13	Par 5	Considered to be one of the more challanging holes on the course with water coming into play on both sides off the tee. The second shot the player faces a long up hill shot to an elevated green. This hole doesn't give up too many birdies.
14	Par 3	Nice par 3 with out of bounds to the right and in back of the green. The green is also protected by a bunker on the left. Choose your club wisely.
15	Par 4	With the wind at your back this green is reachable. However, most players lay up just short of the fairway bunker. From there you are left with a relatively easy pitch to the green. A birdie is possible.
16	Par 4	The famous Sugarloaf Mountain becomes the back drop and your target off the tee on this relatively simple hole. The green is guarded by bunkers front and back. Therefore, club selection becomes important on your second shot.
17	Par 3	Overlooking the bay is the very scenic but difficult down hill par 3. With a small green protected by bunkers on both sides and out of bounds on the right, hitting your target requires accuracy and concentration especially when one is distracted so much splendor.
18	Par 3	Let the players on the patio on the 19^th hole cheer you on as you show off your skills. After your round why not join them and take in the warmth of the surroundings as you wind down and talk about your game.
