Camp Laurel offers a broad range of programs that challenge campers and create life-long memories. Six core areas: athletics, waterfront, tennis, adventure, inter-arts, and equestrian skills are each supervised by professionals. Camp Laurel’s program is unique in also providing campers with a certain amount of freedom in selecting activities so that they have time to explore individual interests and bond with fellow campers.

Camp Laurel was founded in 1949 and has been in continuous operation ever since. Located in the heart of Maine’s Central Lakes region, Camp Laurel has 160 unspoiled acres of woodlands and 2000 feet of shoreline. A warm, family feeling and a camper-to-counselor ratio of better than three to one create an environment that encourages both safety and health and provides campers with opportunities for emotional and physical growth. The truly extraordinary facilities include: Regulation baseball, softball, soccer, lacrosse, hockey, roller hockey, basketball, and beach volleyball facilities, plus fifteen all-weather tennis courts and an 8000 square foot indoor field house. A 28-station ropes course, two 55-foot climbing towers, bouldering pavilion, mountain bikes, Discovery Nature Center, and Rocketry Center. Dance and Arts & Crafts Centers, a radio station, movie house and professionally equipped theater. Equestrian facilities including beginning and advanced riding rings, sand arenas and two 12-stall barns.

Sending a child to camp is a tremendous act of faith by parents. Camp Laurel takes that responsibility very seriously. Boys and girls, ages 7-15, are encouraged to develop their natural abilities and enjoy the benefits of group living supervised by an outstanding staff. Team members are chosen from students, graduates and faculty from schools and colleges throughout the United States and are selected for their sincere desire to work and live with children.

Camp Laurel utilizes the rugged EZGO MPT 1200 to get a variety of hauling and personal transport jobs done. The MPT 1200 has a total load capacity of a whopping 1200 pounds and a 13 hp Kawasaki engine is standard. Hydraulic front disc brakes, an extra heavy-duty battery and an electric power dump bed can be added as options to further customize this tenacious vehicle for whatever work the user needs to accomplish.

The EZGO ST 400 with 13hp Kawasaki gasoline engine is a valued co-worker for staff at Camp Laurel, with its exceptional ground clearance and hefty 1000-pound load capacity. Two passengers can travel in comfort under the optional sun canopy while towing up to 600 pounds. Like the EZGO MPT 1200, the ST 400 can be customized with an electric power dump bed.

Camp Laurel’s ultimate goal is to provide an enjoyable, exciting summer-long camp that motivates campers to approach the future with courage, confidence and a feeling of self-worth.

If you manage a retreat, camp or campground, a golf course, or just have a big yard you need to maintain, please visit the Five Star Golf Cars website. We can help you find the vehicle or vehicles you need to keep things looking good and running smoothly.

Posted on the arch at the entrance of the camp are twelve ideals that are reinforced throughout all aspects of the Camp Takajo experience. Integrity, tolerance, sportsmanship, friendliness, self-reliance, magnanimity, loyalty, obedience, courage, faith, love and honesty are modeled and taught by a core of veteran counselors, many of whom return year after year.

Camp Takajo was founded in 1947 by Morton J. Goldman and is known for its diversity, high quality programs, and exceptional facilities. Activities are designed to be developmentally age appropriate and provide the structure that boys need. Each camper gains exposure to many different types of experiences and as boys get older, they have more choice in picking the hobbies and skills in which they want to participate.

Camp Takajo and its sister camp for girls, Tripp Lake, utilize several Five Star golf cars and utility vehicles. The needs of a tough work situation are balanced with environmental concerns and the aesthetic issues of providing visitors with a view of the camp’s beauty and peaceful setting.

The voices of kids at play should never be drowned out by the roar of a noisy engine! Guests, administrators and staff are comfortably and quietly transported around the Camp Takajo and Camp Tripp grounds with the EZGO 4-Shuttle 2+2 Gas, the ST Sport 2+2 Gas, and the ST Express Gas. Mono-leaf springs with hydraulic shocks in the EZGO Shuttle 2+2 RXV and Sport 2×2 provide a smooth ride for up to four passengers and 250 pounds of their belongings. The stylish ST Express provides transport for up to six passengers (with optional rear seat kit) and makes that all-important professional first impression for potential campers and their families.

For day-to-day maintenance chores, the exceptional ground clearance and payload capacity of the EZGO workhorse, the ST 400, helps the Camp Takajo and Camp Tripp staff get any job done with features such as 2 inch front and rear hitch receivers and options like a 12 volt outlet and sun canopy.

If you want both an incomparable camp and character building experience for your son, please visit http://takajo.com, or call to get a DVD. Summer: (207) 693-6675 / Winter: (914) 273-5020

Rockywold-Deephaven is a retreat that offers the best of the White Mountains. Located in Holderness, New Hampshire, RDC provides endless opportunities for outdoor fun: hiking, canoeing, swimming, fishing, tennis and much, much more. There are activities for kids and adults of all ages, with guided nature hikes, boat tours, ultimate frisbee and games of capture the flag to keep everyone busy. And for those parents who want some alone time to explore Rattlesnake Mountain or take a kayak around the lake, there’s babysitting available. With a mile and half of frontage on beautiful, crystal-clear Squam Lake and access to acres of unspoiled wilderness, RDC really is a place to get away from it all, reconnect with family and friends, and put aside the distractions of everyday life.

Of course, there are some amenities that you wouldn’t want to leave behind, and you won’t have to: each of the retreat’s 60 cabins have electricity and indoor plumbing, plus more rustic features like fireplace and ice box (filled daily with ice harvested from Squam Lake!). Meals and housekeeping are also included in the Full American Plan, making your stay as hassle-free as possible.

With pristine grounds to maintain, plus a host of features and amenities to support, RDC relies on its golf carts and utility vehicles to keep things running smoothly. It’s important to the RDC team that they live up to the name “retreat,” which means not disrupting the peace and beauty of the camp, or the experience of guests, with a lot of noise and exhaust fumes. For that, they looked to Five Star Golf Cars for help.

RDC staff utilize several EZGO MPT-1000 Electric Utility Vehicles for grounds maintenance. The MPT vehicles are workhorses, with the power and accessory options they need to get the job done. With a powerful 48-volt electric drive-train, the MPT 1000 can haul up to 1,000 pounds of equipment or materials in its roto-molded bed and has a towing capacity of 600 pounds.

When it’s people that need to be moved quickly and efficiently, staff count on their EZGO electric Shuttle 2+2 golf carts. These vehicles are perfect for transporting up to four people at a time. The whisper-quiet 2+2 Shuttle also comes standard with brake lights, a horn, and headlights, making it a particularly safe vehicle for use at night and in situations where young children are around. As you can imagine, this is important at a retreat like RDC, where housekeeping and management staff need to be available to help guests and keep the camp running smoothly, at all hours of the day and night.

If you need some time to relax and enjoy the company of family and the beauty of nature, please visit the Rockywold-Deephaven website, or call 603-968-3313.

Nowhere is there a better example of this than Belgrade Lakes Golf Club. Set in central Maine, this beautiful 240 acre course was designed by award-winning architect and professional golfer Clive Clark. It has the distinction of winning a five-star rating from Golf Digest in 2002, a place on the Golf Magazine’s top 100 U.S. courses list, and has been voted the top course in Maine.

One of the distinguishing qualities of Belgrade Lakes is the way in which it uses the natural features and topography of the Maine landscape to create a course that is challenging, immersive, and visually arresting. With stunning vistas, verdant forests, and rolling hills, you will be experiencing Maine golfing at its finest.

Of course, we had to take these rolling hills and challenging inclines into consideration when matching Belgrade Lakes with a new cart for their fleet. The EZGO RXV electric model was a perfect fit and has served them well. But you don’t have to take our word for it: see what Kyle Evans, President of Belgrade Lakes Golf Club, has to say about the RXV in this video.

The quiet, smooth acceleration of the electric EZGO RXV’s innovative AC drive make it a great choice for the Belgrade Lakes fleet. Even when operating at full speed up a steep incline it will neither suffer performance issues nor disrupt the quiet beauty of the course with engine noise. The cart’s regenerative braking system, high-frequency charger, and AC drive all make the electric RXV up to 39% more energy efficient than DC-powered golf carts, cutting down on operating costs without sacrificing power or convenience. Optional sweater basket, front and rear energy transfer bumpers, tinted windshield and a large selection of other high-quality parts round out this great vehicle.

We are proud to have paired Belgrade Lakes with a golf cart that complements its challenging and unique terrain. We’d like to help you find the cart that you’ve always wanted, as well. With locations in Pocasset, MA, Laconia, NH, and Queensbury, NY, and sales and service techs in Maine and Vermont, we make it easy to get the right tool for the job. Give us a call today!

Set in the midst of 3,700 acres of protected woodlands, the Eastman Community’s awareness of and appreciation for the natural environment is nowhere more apparent than the Eastman Golf Links. Surrounding soft- and hardwoods, accented with native flowers and rolling hills comprise this elegant, award-winning course. The New England Golf Guide has given it a rare 4-star rating, an honor that few courses can claim. Eastman Golf Links is also in the process of obtaining certification in the Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary Program, which recognizes environmentally-friendly course design and management.

Of course, having a fleet of modern, energy-efficient golf carts and utility vehicles is an important part of sustainability and overall user experience. Loud, outdated, inefficient carts greatly detract from the experience of the golfers and others in the community and are also an unnecessary drain on resources. That’s why Eastman Golf Links uses a fleet of EZGO RXV golf carts. The RXV has a best-in-class 13HP Kawasaki engine. It provides the power to quickly get around the course, but not at the expense of a peaceful game enjoyed in fresh New England air. A welded Durashield frame, continuously variable transmission, front and rear energy transfer bumpers, and other features help make the RXV safe, comfortable and long-lasting.

Eastman Golf Links also uses the EZGO MPT utility line to keep the grounds in such great shape. This family of utility features both gas and electric models, with the largest in the line, the MPT 1200, capable of hauling up to 1200 lbs. All three vehicles feature self-compensating rack and pinion steering, turf-saver tires, welded Durashield frame, and access to a bevy of parts and accessories, such as a powered dump bed, dump trailer, full weather enclosure and much more.

If you are looking for a cutting edge golf cart like the EZGO RXV or a powerhouse utility vehicle like the EZGO MPT, give Five Star Golf Cars a call. We have new and used carts at several convenient locations in New England and Upstate NY and would be happy to walk you through the carts and packages available.

To experience a genuine, sustainable community that has year-round activities like cross country skiing, hiking, swimming, and of course, golf, visit Eastman, New Hampshire and the Eastman Golf Links. You can find more information at eastmannh.org and www.eastmangolflinks.com.

Of course, building and participating in the community of golf cart enthusiasts isn’t only an online activity, which is why we are attending two upcoming shows. The first is the Springfield RV and Camping Show, which runs from the 17^th – 20^th of February, at the Springfield Expo Grounds in Springfield, VT. Over 200 exhibitors will be in attendance, including Five Star, of course. As we’ve stated before, we think campers can enjoy numerous benefits from bringing a golf cart along on their camping excursions. They allow access to otherwise unavailable trails and locations, help you keep your day filled with fun activities by greatly reducing travel time, and are perfect for running down to the camp store to pickup some marshmallows or lighter fluid. And if there’s a town nearby, a low speed vehicle like the EZGO 2Five will allow you to travel on roads with speed limits of 35 MPH or less, giving you the ability to explore the local area without burning lots of gas.

Campground owners, as well, use golf carts and utility vehicles on a daily basis to keep their campgrounds running. Hauling mulch or firewood, quietly keeping tabs on the camp at night, resupplying bathrooms, and much more can all be handled by a utility vehicle.

The second show we will be participating in is found in the decidedly warmer climate of Las Vegas, NV. Each year, the Golf Course Superintendents Association of America holds a large golf industry show. This year there will be more than 600 exhibitors, product demos, a test drive center, classes from experts and industry leaders, and more. While we won’t be exhibiting in this show, we are looking forward to attending and keeping up on the latest in golf -related tools and technology. You can find more information about the show here.

The people who own golf carts are as diverse as the reasons for riding, and by joining us on Facebook or visiting a show we’re sure you will find some people who enjoy riding as much as you do!

If you are the owner of a golf cart or utility vehicle, we have a diverse array of parts and accessories to enhance your riding experience. But then again, it’s not your riding experience we are talking about enhancing today, is it? It doesn’t matter if you don’t know the first thing about cart brands, models, and the like, with a couple simple pieces of information we can figure out what your significant other rides. Then, it’s a simple matter of figuring out how and why he or she rides, so we can make it better. Is your husband an avid hunter? We have deep-lug tires, brush bars, heavy-duty headlights, gun racks and more. Is your wife using a utility vehicle to maintain the beautiful flower beds at the end of the driveway? Why not make it a little easier for her by getting a hydraulic dump-bed or a trailer hitch for hauling the tools? Not only are you getting her a gift she will use and enjoy, you are showing that you care enough to put some thought into it. And for the person who already has all the accessories they could ever need, a custom paint job in any number of colors (including pink!) or themes is a great choice.

But what if you don’t already own a golf cart? A golf cart makes a great gift! As we’ve demonstrated on this site, golf carts and utility vehicles can be used in a variety of ways and for a large number of activities, aside from just golf. Campers love to use them to get around the campground and to explore trails. Hunting and fishing enthusiasts use them to reach otherwise inaccessible areas. Many, many cart and utility vehicle owners use them to get around their own property, or in the case of low speed vehicles, around the neighborhood.

The uses for carts are nearly endless and the great thing is, many of the activities are perfect for a couple. Few things are as romantic as a ride on a nearby trail to a secluded pond or meadow. Most of the carts we carry are very quiet, meaning you will be able to enjoy a conversation while cruising through the woods, watching for local wildlife. Get your cart now and you can begin planning fun activities for when the snow melts.

Best of all, golf carts are surprisingly affordable. We have new and used carts and utility vehicles from leading brands to fit any and every budget. Our experienced, no-pressure sales staff will work with you to find a cart that meets your needs, and then work out a payment plan that puts that cart in your driveway. We also offer financing through the TD Bank – Yard Card with interest rates starting as low as 0%!

Call or email today so we can set up a time for you to visit one of our locations in Laconia, NH, Pocasset, MA, or Queensbury, NY. Can’t make it to one of our three locations? We have sales representatives in Maine, Vermont and Rhode Island to help with your golf car purchase.
