The Tarratine Club of Dark Harbor is a private seasonal club on Islesboro, Maine, founded on September 2, 1896 to promote 'boating, golfing and kindred interests.' Its golf operation consists of a nine-hole course, with secondary golf references listing a par of 36 and approximately 3,058 yards. Historical records from the Islesboro Historical Society show that the golf club moved to its present site in 1916 after its earlier Dark Harbor location proved inadequate; an old farmhouse was converted for clubhouse use.
The course is now certified as an Audubon International Golf Course Sanctuary and forms one part of a broader club that also supports sailing, tennis, pickleball, junior programs, dining and social activities. The course has views toward the Camden Hills and remains primarily associated with club membership, although the institution has developed limited opportunities for island residents and community golf activities over time.
