Crotched Mountain Golf Club is a classic Donald Ross design set against a beautiful New England backdrop in the rolling hills of New Hampshire. The course is situated at the base of a mountain, offering beautiful views of the surrounding Monadnock region. This peacefully secluded spot is breathtaking in the fall when the leaves are changing. The golf course has many unique holes that will test your skill with a variety of different shots. Mature trees line the narrow fairways and there are strategically placed bunkers flanking the greens. You will also come across the occasional water hazard. There are some challenging holes but Crotched Mountain Golf Club is a fair and playable round that will appeal to a wide range of skill levels. The practice facility at Crotched Mountain includes a driving range and two different putting greens, including one with a sand bunker for chipping practice.

An hour from anywhere

Crotched is a difficult course, tight, lots of elevation changes, slanted fairways but the ball always seems to find a divot or bare spot for a lie. Greens were well maintained. Theres a practice green, driving range with a trap and chipping green. Has all the pieces in place to be a great venue.

Had a blast

Went with 3 of my friends! We play a lot and work at golf courses. Unfortunately due to the covid we didn’t get to go inside the shop. Obviously for safety of the public. Paying was easy and having a beer was easy! The scenic views there are fantastic and the course layout was awesome. We will be back

Course is a bit of a ride but worth it

My golf partner and I had a bit of a ride to get to Crotched Mountain, but it was worth the travel. The course was in great shape. It was a wonderful first day at golfing for the season. For our skill level, and budget, this was the place to be.

Nice getaway

The course was in good shape. Need to stay on fairway as ball hard to find in the rough. Greens putted well.

Try Out The Course

Crotched Mountain is a course you have to think about how to play each hole and you just cannot take out the driver. No two fairways are the same.

Great Fall golf

For late in October in NH, the course is in great condition. One suggestion is try to hit the fairways. A few holes have some leaves in rough, and hard to find your ball.

Terrible customer service

Arrived early was made to wait until close to tee time. Only one twosome went out after waiting 40 minutes. Then we were allowed to tee off. Twosome was painfully slow had to wait on every hole, they finally let us play through on 15. Will never go back there again.

We will continue to look for ways to improve, and we are glad to see you rated the course conditions to be great during your game. Thank you for playing Crotched Mountain Golf Club.

great course - bar offerings need work

I regularly play this course. It truly is a hidden gem in this area.. The great experience ends on the 18th hole. The bar area restaurant doesn't open until noon, therefore no breakfast offerings. The wine selections are so bad, no popular wines, just some weird labels no one has ever heard of nor are they good. And what they charge for these duds is outrageous. The manager of the bar needs to brush up on the adult beverage tastes of the golfers, not his/her own ideas of what will sell.(or be fired) The non-alcohol beer selections are pretty weak too. A disappointing end to a great golfing experience.

Well Kept Secret

Crotched Mountain GC is a well kept secret in NH. The setting is beautiful. The course is well maintained. The layout, while offering reasonable challenges, is interesting and fun.

The prices are very reasonable and the bar and restaurant are quite good. Play it. You’ll like it.

Tee boxes, fairways, and greens all fabulous shape. Some views are spectacular. Coming back in the fall foliage must make this place pop!

Nice course not friendly staff

We arrived early for our tee time on a very hot Monday morning. Our tee time was for twelve noon. W got to the course at eleven am. I asked if we could tee off early and was told that the earliest time would be 11:50 despite the fact that nobody was on the first tee or anyone waiting. We got a large bucket of golf balls to pass the time and chipped and putted. Despite the fact that I did not play well. I found the corse to be very enjoyable and would play it again. My only complaint was having to wait to tee off when the first tee sat empty for over 45 minutes.

nice course, lousy bar selections, food menu good

This is a very nice course to play, But part of the golf experience is heading into the clubhouse after the round for a few drinks or perhaps even a meal. During the summer months when golfers start very early to beat the heat, the bar and restaurant doesn't open until noon. I am sure they lose revenue for early players who just don't want to wait around until noon. The bar wine and non-alcohol beer selections seem to be at the whim of the bar manager. That is, they don't often have the most popular non-alcohol beer and they don't carry Kendall Jackson Chardonnay at all. They have no name selections at a ridiculous price per glass. SAD

Waste of time and money

A friend and I took a day off from work to play Crotched Mountain...BIG MISTAKE! The pro shop allowed six golfers in three carts to go off in front of us and they hacked their way around the course for hours on end. The pace of play was ridiculously slow. Add to that piles of rotting grass next to most of the greens smelling like the city dump next and you have the makings for one miserable golf outing. Clearly the pro at Crotched Mountain doesn’t care in the least what is happening on his course. Come to think of it, I know why he avoids the course...it smells awful! Save your time and money and go elsewhere!

Interesting

Lots of side hill lies. Blind shots The only problem we had is that we got paired with a guy that was sooooooooo slow. If he hit a ball in the woods it became an Easter egg hunt. 5:15 round.
