1st: Scenery and golf course vie for the starring role at Waukewan. This first green, blind from the fairway, has a hidden bunker behind it. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 06/22/2020

6th: A tight par-5. Here we look back—across the pond--at the ribbon of fairway where the tee shot lands, for those who prefer to stay dry and out of the woods. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 06/22/2020

7th: A masterful 3-par, viewed from right flank. This bunker is out of view from the tee, along with another trap on the green’s opposite side. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 06/22/2020
-
8th: From behind green. Perhaps one of the most elegant and scenic par-5’s in all of New Hampshire. It’s also tough. This view faces the tee, which is a long way down the immense hill. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 06/22/2020

16th: Another strong hole over a stretch of seven on the back side. Uphill, long par-3 to a perched green. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 06/22/2020

18th: View behind/left of hole. Pond must be traversed on either 1st or 2nd shot of 4-par: a risk/reward decision. New England scenery, including clubhouse, forms a pleasant backdrop. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 06/22/2020

Hidden Gem
Great value for money. Helpful staff at this off the beaten path track golf course. Greens were excellent and firm with one exception (13th). Fairways were very sloped but in very good shape. Layout is good with a little confusion re location of the tee box.
NH Golf
pleasant round, pace of play slow, beautiful scenery, challenging slope
Shouldn't even be open yet
Very poor greens conditions. A 3some was ahead of me with dog (if you can imagine). Ball marks not fixed on poor greens. Slow play, no tee markers or directionals to direct you to next tee . No signs out yet to show you what hole was or looked like. I had to go back in pro shop to ask where 1st tee was. I looked at score card and noticed no diagram of the course. I had to go back in and inquire. They then gave me a separate card with course layout and told me to "keep it in case I ever came back". After a disappointing 9 holes I actually had to go back in pro shop to ask what direction hole 10 was! I was told ONLY then that only the 9 holes were opened. I headed back to first tee only to find 3 kids (ten to twelve year olds) waiting to tee off. I left and would not ever think of returning.
Mid-November, but...
Lots of renovation and winterizing activity underway, which they let us know about before round. Overall very playable particularly for a very late season round.
Course is going to be great
Lovely plan and challenging course. The weather was rainy and it is the end of the season. But we had great time overall. The staff was very nice. There was work going into the 14th hole, but I can see that it will make the course better next year. Greens were in excellent condition. Narrow fairways.
A favorite Play
We pre-paid for 18 holes, but only played 9 because heavy rain & thunder moved in. But, people were very nice and gave us a rain check for the other 9-holes for another day this season. Many courses would not do that. Course is in good shape, greens were a challenge because of pin placement. But, that's what makes golf fun!
well worth the money! course is challenging and fun . I've been there many times and i'll be there many more times,
Last Day at Waukewan
This was my last day at Waukewan after playing the course several times this summer and fall. Every time I've played the course I've had no complaints and the staff has always been accommodating and friendly.
Fun golf
Well kept golf course with reasonable challenge for intermediate golfers.
Casual play , friendly staff.
Challenging Greens
Undulating greens required careful analysis to avoid missing on the low side. Greens were well-maintained and consistent. Lots of blind approaches. Nice pace of play.
Good experience
The friendly staff got the day off to a good start. The course was in pretty good shape and challenging enough for an average golfer. Pace of play was good. The price for the round was excellent! We are sure to return in the future.
The Waukewan
A truly beautiful course with great views, well maintained and a very friendly staff. Everything is nice and neat, well organized and you can't beat the late summer weather, price and the casual pace of play.
Good value for the average golfer
Waukewan has small greens and multiple elevation changes. I love to walk here, but there are some uphill climbs. The course is not long, but requires some thought as to shot selection to score well.
Fun little course
This is a great little course for the money. From my experience it is never too busy. We were behind multiple foursomes but only had to wait on the first couple holes. Some tricky tee shots but also some short par 4s and 5s that make it a good track for beginners.
Horrible Staff and Worst Experience of My Life
This golf course is absolutely horrible. The staff is horrible, and they have no idea how to treat anyone with respect. They allowed another group to freely hit balls at us while we were putting on the 18th green, and then the golf "pro" decided it was within proper golf etiquette to yell across the course that it was our responsibility to play faster. I am by no means a pro golfer, but I payed my money to play just like everyone else, and I let everyone who asks me to play through. This is 100% the worst golf course in the state and I hope their owner becomes aware of his poor choice in staff selection.

Disrespectful Employyes
Was yelled at and insulted by course employees and club Pro as we finished the 18th. The Club Pro felt the need to continue insulting us from the Club House stoop as we packed our car to leave. The amount of disrespect in that 5 minute time frame was incredible. Club 'Pro' acted like a child, screaming to insult us as we left.

So Pretty and Fun!
Very challenging for me (35 self-calculated handicap) but fun. Lots of water in play; a couple balls lost. Front nine mostly uphill; back nine mostly downhill. Finished in exactly 4 hours -- even with lots of strokes. Able to keep up pretty easily despite sometimes erratic shots and blind targets.
Would definitely play Waukewan again. A very nice course.
Value for the buck
Waukewan was in decent shape. Staff courteous as always. A great value for the buck.
Some holes were quite challenging
The course was great, the views were great, and golf now.com rates were unbelievable. A very good program.
Fine but not exceptional
The course is decent but lacks deep character holes. Conditions were fine, but a bit wet after some heavy rains two days before. Pace was pretty slow and there was no service cart out on a Saturday early afternoon on a holiday. That said, I felt the value was fine and would play it again on a causal afternoon.
Sir (redman53), We at Waukewan would like to extend our apologies to you for the fact that you did not seem to enjoy your round at our course. We do remember your visit well, and can explain a couple of the situations you encountered as follows:
Very poor greens conditions
"Most golfers playing at Waukewan have and still are reporting that we have the best greens starting off in the area, though we believe there is always room for improvement."
A 3some was ahead of me with dog (if you can imagine).
"One of our patrons is vision impaired and this dog provides assistance to his master during their time on the course."
Ball marks not fixed on poor greens.
"We try to educate our members and guests in the proper etiquette in repairing greens, and our maintenance crews work to repair the marks that the golfers do not."
No tee markers or directionals to direct you to next tee. No signs out yet to show you what hole was or looked like. I had to go back in pro shop to ask where 1st tee was. I looked at score card and noticed no diagram of the course. I had to go back in and inquire. They then gave me a separate card with course layout and told me to "keep it in case I ever came back".
"Tee markers were out, but our signs were being reconditioned and had not returned from the Blackstone Regional Technical High School for display at that time. The High School was excited to have a real world project to work on, and we at Waukewan support that excitement. The signs came out mint."
After a disappointing 9 holes I actually had to go back in pro shop to ask what direction hole 10 was! I was told ONLY then that only the 9 holes were opened. I headed back to first tee only to find 3 kids (ten to twelve year olds) waiting to tee off. I left and would not ever think of returning.
"The three 'kids', along with countless other 'kids' play this course regularly and all 'kids' playing unsupervised at this course have been taught proper golf etiquette, including pace of play, and we at Waukewan support youth golf."
With these explanations in mind, we at Waukewan are hopeful that you will visit with us in the future and walk onto the course with an open mind regarding any of our patrons with disabilities, and/or any golfers that are not of majority age.
The Managers and Staff at Waukewan.
