Bald Peak Colony Club

Bald Peak Colony, a secluded enclave nestled in the heart of New Hampshire's Lakes Region, is less a golf course and more a chronicle etched into the granite and pines surrounding Lake Winnipesaukee. Carved from the rugged landscape, the course, while not nationally renowned, boasts a distinct regional charm. Herbert Strong's original design, a product of the early 20th century's embrace of natural contours, rewards strategic play over sheer power. The terrain dictates the game: expect blind shots across rolling hills, demanding precise club selection to navigate the course's many doglegs. While length isn't the defining characteristic, the course's tight fairways and deceptively undulating greens demand accuracy and a thoughtful approach to scoring. Beyond the golf, Bald Peak Colony fosters a unique atmosphere within its private membership. Tradition runs deep here, reinforced by generations of families who return each summer. A sense of understated elegance pervades the club, evident in the simple, yet refined, clubhouse offerings and the unhurried pace of play. It's said that the true measure of a Bald Peak member isn't their handicap, but their ability to appreciate the quiet beauty and enduring legacy of this hidden gem.
