Things to do / Travel Guide
Golfing in the Green or White Mountains means one thing: lot's of hills. You'll understand what we mean by that after reading the descriptions of some of the courses in the New Hampshire and Vermont region.
Isn't it enough when the fairways are hilly? Must the greens be mounds as well? Evidently yes, at the challenging Balsams Grand Resort Hotel Panorama Course where pull carts are a no-no due to the difficulty of the hike.
Drive the Mount Washington Course and you'll find a GPS system in your cart to help even the field on this course that includes water hazards, doglegs, trees, and sand.
The Owl's Nest course is divided into three distinct sections, each comprised of six holes. You'll be challenged by extreme elevation changes and tight fairways that demand accuracy with your woods.
Built on hilly terrain (it IS a mountain course in a mountain state), the Rutland Country Club course has rolling, fast greens. A creek will present you with difficulties on five holes, and you will find yourself in the heavy woods at times.
The Okemo Mountain Okemo Valley Course was rated one of the "Top 100 Courses For Women" by Golf For Women magazine. You'll find lush green fairways, forgiving rough, and manicured greens on this peaceful, yet challenging course.
The Stratton Mountain Forest / Lake Course is a mix and match from three 9-hole courses. You'll have to contend with elevated greens, drops in elevation, and lots of trees.
Unwind on the beautiful Gleneagles at The Equinox course, where your primary hazards are the wind and mountain. The course is built on rolling terrain tucked in between two mountain ranges and is appropriate for golfers of all skill levels.
The forest is all around at Breakfast Hill. Also, small ponds come into play on two holes. This is a course that golfers of all abilities can enjoy.
Winds off the bay accompany the beautiful sights of the New Hampshire seacoast at the Portsmouth Golf and Country Club. Golfers of all abilities will enjoy the beauty and challenge of this course.
