Your Guide to Golfing Greater Concord
An enthusiastic foursome at Beaver Meadow Golf Course for 2024’s Funds for Education Golf Tournament
Spend a fair day on the fairway! Summer is in full swing, and courses have benefitted from this season’s early rains to offer the best of New England golfing. With rolling hills, towering pines, and mountain vistas on the horizon, Greater Concord is a surprisingly rich destination for golfers. Several distinct 18-hole layouts (all within a 20-minute drive!) invite you to pack the clubs and make a long weekend of it.
Beaver Meadow Golf Course - Concord
New Hampshire’s oldest municipal course, established in 1896, is still the local favorite. Beaver Meadow’s fairways meander beside the Merrimack River, offering a classic park-land feel that’s suitable for all skill levels. A modern clubhouse, full-service pro shop, and relaxed grill make it easy to spend the entire day on site.

Pembroke Pines Country Club - Pembroke
Just south of downtown Concord, this par-72 track winds through mature white pines that frame every tee shot. Strategic bunkering and subtly contoured greens reward precision, while five sets of tees keep the round friendly for every handicap. Finish with lunch on a pavilion overlooking the 18th green!
Canterbury Woods Country Club - Canterbury
Just a quick ride north of Concord, Canterbury Woods delivers unique elevation changes and scenic views of the Belknap Mountains. The back nine plays across open highlands where breezes can add an extra club to your approach—or create a more challenging drive.
Loudon Country Club - Loudon
Wide landing areas make this course perfect for family outings or relaxed buddy trips. Water comes into play on eight holes, and the course’s signature island-style 12th green ensures bragging rights for anyone who sticks it close. Don’t miss the pub’s locally sourced comfort fare after your round.
Base yourself in Concord for easy access to all four courses, plus craft breweries, farm-to-table dining, and boutique shopping along Main Street. Spring brings lush fairways, summer offers long daylight for 36-hole days, and autumn cloaks the courses in insta-worthy foliage.
Call ahead for tee times, and get ready to discover why Greater Concord is quietly earning a reputation as the Granite State’s best golf hub.
