1227.0. "Hale's Location C.C.?????" by DASXPS::DNELSON () Fri May 03 1991 13:07

    
         Has anybody heard of Hale's Location Country Club?
    It's located just outside North Conway Center. From what I
    understand it's a fairly new course. I'm going to be staying
    at their hotel next weekend and am planning on playing the course.
    Any information would be appreciated.
    Thanks

1227.1Hale's location/Mt. Washington InnGBMMKT::BZLOTNICKFri May 03 1991 14:5715
    I believe it's called Mt. Washington Inn at Hale's Location.  I walked
    around the hotel and grounds last winter and it looked very nice.  The
    view was magnificient and worth the stay.  The course is new and it
    looked tight from what I could see of a couple of holes.  I want to try
    it later this summer.  The hotel has about 150 rooms and they had a
    winter/sprint rate of $89/99 per room (not golf) and I suppose they
    have packages.  It's a very nice hotel.  Don't confuse it with the Mt.
    Washington Hotel at Bretton Woods as they are different hotels.  BTW, I
    may have called the Inn the Hotel and vica-versa.  I did look over the
    Sunday brunch, and while it was not too expensive ($10) it didn't look
    real interesting.  But it was worth the $10.
    
    Have a nice time.

    My wife and I played Hale's Location last summer. It is a 9 hole
    course; I don't think they have room for 18 as they border the 
    WMNF (White Mtn Natl Forest). The course is very scenic -- mountain
    views, etc. -- you'll also probably see people rock climbing nearby 
    and people hang-gliding. The course is also challenging. It is quite
    hilly and many of the fairways are narrow (cut through the woods). A 
    few of the fairways also have bunkers well placed about 180 - 220 yards
    from the tee - practice those sand shots!! When we were there last July
    the course was also very well maintained.

     Well I played Hale's location this past weekend, and I thought it
    was pretty nice. A few of the fairways were a little burnt, but the
    pro said it was like that for the first month of last year. Tees and
    greens were in very good shape. Not a long course, but kind of tight.
    I was the only person on the whole course on sat. Greenfees for 9 holes
    were $16 weekdays, $19 weekends and $13 after 3p.m. everyday. My driver
    was also on vacation, resulting in a couple of ugly rounds of 44-45.
     The hotel (The white mountain hotel & resort) was beautiful. It had 
    a cliff behind it about 700 feet high ( I'm terrible at guessing
    heights, but it was high) and there were people there climbing it all
    weekend. The restaurant had a beautiful panoramic view of the
    mountains and was very classy. They had a great seafood buffet on fri.
    night for $12 and a nice lounge. I was impressed. Especially since the
    room only cost us $49 a night.
     I would recommend both the golf course and hotel.
