Miacomet Golf Course is a public 18-hole golf course on Nantucket.
History
In 1956, Ralph P. Marble, a Michigan-native, bought 400-acres of land on Nantucket with dairy farm intentions. The area he bought was called by the old Wampanoag inhabitants "Miacomet", which meant "The Meeting Place". Marble stated that he decided to build a golf course because the dairy market was not doing well.
In 1960, Marble began building the Miacomet Golf Course. In 1963, the Miacomet Golf Course opened as a public year-round golf course. In the early 1970s, due to a fire, the clubhouse was rebuilt without spending any money as the island community provided donated lumber and free labor to replace the original.
