1901.0. "Looking for Mtn area courses" by CONSLT::CHAMBERLAIN () Tue May 24 1994 08:59

    Hello,
    
    I will be camping in West Campton, NH, this weekend (same exit as
    Waterville Valley) and being my 2nd year golfing, I don't really know
    where to go golfing up there.
    
    I do know of the Jack-o-lantern.. that's it though.
    
    I would like to go somewhere casual, where PROPER dress is not
    mandated, also somewhere where my step mother can play (she has never
    held a club) without people getting upset.
    
    Any suggestions where to go?
    
    tahnx

Lisa,

	There is a course up at Waterville Valley, but I don't know how
	fussy they are about dress and beginners.

	There is also White Mountain Golf Course in Ashland (right off
	exit 24 of I-93).  This course is owned and operated by the
	same people who run Green Meadow, so I believe that they will
	be accommodating to everyone.  You should probably call first
	and definitely get directions, its a little hard to find.

	There is probably one or two more in the Plymouth, NH area.  I
	would stop and check a phone book when you get up there.

	Hope this helps.

Tom

    Lisa,
    
    Waterville Valley, if they allow  players that are not staying in the
    resort, is OK for what you  are looking for.  It a very informal nine
    hole course that was layed up without  moving the ground too much, so
    there is no big design there.  The  fairways  are somewhat shabby and
    greens were made in some unusual places, e.g.  in two  holes the road
    crosses  right  in  from  of the green, one green is up-hill and  the
    other one below the road.
    
    I  was  staying  there  with my family and my kids (about 9 and 11 at
    that time) had a ball, not by playing but by riding the cart all over
    the place.
