Course in unusually good shape...

It's been a couple of years since I've played Waukewan and it's in remarkably good shape currently. Greens putting quite good and rest of course is in great shape also. An interesting collection of holes. The majority are quite straightforward and easy, but there are some challenging holes as you get near the end of the round.

Recommend giving it a shot.

Interesting course layout, not too many flat sections.

A nice course w/some challenges but not terribly difficult. It is, however, tough for the first time or two until you get to know the lay of the land. On some fairways you can't see what's out over the hill, so you're hitting somewhat blind and need to be cautious. Once you know the course you can more successfully manage your shots. I enjoy the challenge of playing there.

Greens great, Tees not so much

Course is in remarkable shape considering the winter weather. Tees however, have on a few holes,been placed on temporary sites. The rough is very dense and I couldn't find a ball again in 4" grass. Only 3 flat holes, like a lot of NH couses, you are playing uphill or down....

Thank you for playing our course and providing some constructive criticisms regarding a subset of our tees. You may have noticed that we do have some temporary tees in play as we are working to make improvements to a few of our tees that don't get the ideal growing conditions that are necessary. We hope to see you again.

Excellent course

I’ve played this course many times and for 35 lunch time special well worth it. My group got stuck behind a slow group but they left after nine and had a wide open course. I would recommend this course to anyone it is an excellent course

Fun little course

Waukewon is a great little course to play if you're looking for something to do while visiting the lakes. I have played here many times and the course is in good shape this year. It's not the hardest course you'll play in your life but it does present a fair share of tricky shots you'll have to think about. A lot of blind shots so if you play make sure you get a map or something, it'll definitely help. My only complaint was that I thought the beer selection was a little weak. Would definitely recommend for anyone up for the weekend looking to whack some golf balls.

Early Season Great Greens

Pleasantly surprised by the overall condition of the course ,especially the greens, considering the amount of snow last winter. Greens were fast and "green". Rough could be shorter,(lost 2 balls close to fairway cut ), because of 4 to 5 inch tall thick grass. Great North Country facility as long as you like holes that are either uphill or down.

Hello and thank you for taking the time to play our course. We have been fortunate to have some of if not the best greens in Central NH as you pointed out after a tough winter and challenging drought season that followed. We admittedly do have some challenging roughs at our course. Thank you for your recommendation.

A typical mountain course, with lots of side hill lies, trees, and fast greens. Fun to play but bring extra balls, ‘cause you can lose a sleeve on one hole. Friendly staff. Will definitely play again.

Best Ever

I've played this course a number of times over the last 15 years. It's in the best condition I've ever seen it. Greens, tee boxes, fairways, etc. were in very good to excellent condition. This is not an easy course to maintain. The landscape – hills, ponds, forest – and NE weather will make any superintendent's life challenging. The maintenance staff deserve much credit for their efforts. All in all, Waukewan is the quintessential NE track. The course is a mix of traditional, easy, difficult, and one, quirky hole that all levels of players can enjoy when played from your skill-matching tees. Nice people in the shop and on the first tee. Great, casual vibe should make for a great day. I wish them the best of luck. John S.

Excellent all the way around!

After the first two holes, the threesome ahead of us invited us to play through. This was great as our pace of play is rather fast. The course itself was in excellent shape, the greens were perfect! The owners have done an amazing job at Waukewan. Unfortunately, there were a few golfers skipping holes and jumping in, however, I suspect management was unaware. The course is in outstanding shape and we had a terrific afternoon of golf. Management asked how we liked the course upon completion, they seemed genuinely interested in feedback. Will definitely play there again and again!

This was our first time playing here. I’m a novice player at best and found the course to be more challenging than expected. Probably a weather factor as it was a blustery day. The course was in good shape, some minor drainage issues is all I can really complain about. I will definitely play this course again.

James, thank you for golfing at Waukewan. Our greens were aerated recently but by the following week, they were running true again thanks to our grounds crew. We hope you join us again for a round and have a more pleasurable experience.

Don't let the short length fool you; this is a shotmaker's course with many risk/reward opportunities. Very few flat lies or putts!
