Crotched Mountain Golf Course

Set amid the Monadnock Region’s wooded hills, Crotched Mountain Golf Club in Francestown, New Hampshire, operates today as a public, walkable par-71 with a full-service practice range, short-game area and a popular on-site tavern in the historic Gibson House. The routing climbs and falls over exposed granite and upland pines, with shorter, more intimate corridors on the opening side and wider, more expansive movement on the inward nine. The club markets the front nine as a Donald Ross layout from the late 1920s, with a later second nine added to complete the 18. From the back (blue) tees the course measures 6,111 yards, with everyday options down to 4,604 yards, and a scorecard that reveals a classic front-side sequence (370-320-155-504-370-213-466-355-422) followed by a varied inward half featuring consecutive short par 4s at 15 and 16 and a stout two-shot 18th. Practice facilities, league play and simulator golf round out a year-round offering, while the property’s setting—just off Second New Hampshire Turnpike—makes it an accessible day-trip for southern New Hampshire and Boston-area golfers.
