Whip Poor Will Golf Course sits in Hudson, New Hampshire, a town in the southern part of the state near the Massachusetts border. Designed by Manuel Francis, the course occupies rolling New England terrain characteristic of the region's wooded, glacially-shaped landscape. The routing works through natural elevation changes and incorporates the native hardwood and pine forests that define much of southern New Hampshire's golf settings. The course serves the Merrimack Valley area and provides a local option for golfers in the greater Nashua region. Francis, who designed several courses in New England during the mid-to-late twentieth century, typically worked with existing topography rather than extensive earthmoving, and Whip Poor Will reflects this approach with holes that follow the land's natural contours. The layout includes a mix of open and tree-lined holes, with fairways that demand accuracy off the tee given the wooded borders. As a daily-fee facility, Whip Poor Will functions as a community course for the Hudson area, offering accessible golf in a region where public options serve a broad range of players. The course maintains the straightforward character common to many New England municipal and semi-private layouts from its era, where playability and maintenance within budget constraints shape the golfing experience. The property's name references the whip-poor-will, a nocturnal bird native to eastern North American forests, connecting the course to its wooded New Hampshire setting.
