Stonebridge Country Club

I have not golfed here in years but the Course always seems to be in decent shape and moves along well. the views are amazing, some of the best in Southern NH. Not a very difficult course to play, but there are some hazards that add complexity to your game. The Country Club itself is really nice. The bar is small but the food is great, I have never had a bad meal here and when the weather is nice it is awesome to sit outside and enjoy the views. There is a room off to the side for parties and the big tent for weddings. Overall a really good experience, the seem to do it all well.

Where to begin! We got married here on 9÷26÷15. We had the best wedding and the club was the perfect setting! I have to shout out to Cyndee, the wedding coordinator. She is amazing and we would not have had such a perfect wedding, if it was not for her. She met with us over a year in advance and over-​viewed how flexible she can be day of. We immediately fell in love with the setting but most of all her. We booked and for the next year she was great about keeping us updated on new things they were adding for services and options. By the time we got to our final meeting, she already had the day planned and just needed a few details from me to finalize everything. We had our rehearsal dinner there and the meal was fabulous. Come day of, Cyndee did everything. She even setup the decorations and center pieces for us. She stayed with me and my now husband and her team stayed to guide our guests through the days events. I think we heard from almost everyone about how the day flowed perfectly and unlike many weddings, they were constantly doing something but not feeling rushed. That they knew exactly where they needed to be and the flow was perfect! Cyndee THANK YOU so much for all of the work you did on our big day! You are an amazing coordinator and person! Stonebridge is lucky to have you there! You want an all inclusive venue with a team that will make sure your day is perfect? Check these guys out!

I play this course often. One of my go-to’s in southern New Hampshire. Here’s the breakdown.
Condition:
Tees and fairways better than average. Fairways are not usually carpet-​like but very nice. Most of the course plays pretty hard and fast. Greens were excellent this year. Much better than last year when many of them were unplayable well into the season. The rough is cut to a reasonable height. You are able to get a clean strike from off the fairway and go for the green. Not just try to hack it back into play. The sand is fine. Not super fluffy but good enough to be able to thump it out. A couple of holes seem to collect water more than they should and stay a little soggy (15,18). Overall well above average conditions, no complaints here.
Layout:
A solid, fair test of golf. Tees are well spaced out so the course can play as tough or as easy as you can handle. A good mix of straightforward holes, challenging holes, and a couple real unique holes sprinkled in. I find the course to be a bit of a grind which adds to the challenge. The 3 par 5’s on the back side are all unreachable in 2 for those of us who are human. 17 is a beast of an uphill par 5 when you are already tired. If you are looking for a course with a bunch of weird gimmick holes this isn’t the place. If you are looking for a solid, fair, and challenging round you will like it. It helps if you can hit the ball with some distance. Whenever I take good players who are serious about golf here they love it and always want to go back.
Staff:
Never had a bad experience here. Everyone is always friendly. I used to wish they would offer more deals but this year they had coupons for a $ 20 round at my local driving range so I used them all summer.
Atmosphere:
I love it up there. Set back on a hill in Goffstown it’s like its own little world. No road noise or homes. Great views of the surrounding hills. Extremely peaceful and quiet. I highly recommend getting up there for twilight on a Sunday. You will have the place to yourself. A great way to relax, take in the atmosphere, and wind down your weekend.
Favorite Holes;
:6 (Downhill water carry par 3 into a very thin green.)
7 (Blind tee shot to landing area, then 90 degree turn into green.)
10 (Par 5 with a risk/​reward tee shot over a marsh.)
14 (Fairway slopes hard left the whole way. If you hit right to left God help you.)
15 (90 degree dogleg left par 4. Green can be reached from the tee if you’re an absolute bomber. Be careful though, you’ll be hitting over the tee box of the par 3 16^th)

This past weekend, we paid for 9 holes and decided to play the front 9. They failed to tell us that 4 of the 9 greens were covered and that they made makeshift greens with a patch of fairway and a can of white spray paint — what a joke! I’m giving them a 2 because I’ve enjoyed playing here in the past, but the failure to let us know that the holes don’t have greens is completely UNACCEPTABLE; we could have played the back 9…
Go up the road to Countryside Golf Club — much more affordable, no frills, great golf!

We really had a phenomenal experience with Stonebridge for our wedding October 6^th, 2013.
Firstly, they have beautifully landscaped grounds and an excellent fall foliage backdrop! The outdoor ceremony option we had planned for includes an arbor and a lovely aisle. It rained on our wedding day it really ended up being lovely as well and we used the balcony for photos when it was misting so we still had some outdoor shots. The tent was very nice with pretty string lights elegantly covered with sheer fabric, white wooden chairs, dance floor, and because of the rain, side panels and heathers were also included. We used golf carts for our bridal party introduction!
We REALLY wanted a brunch wedding and they worked with us on a package that fit our budget, desires and theme. The food was delicious!
We give the most kudos to the coordinator, Brandi who was just special. She was really easy to work with, had great ideas (like an orange juice toast), and really made us understand that she was there to make things happen as we wanted and support us. It all came to be most meaningful the closer we got to the wedding. When we started to have last minute issues with a vendor she had an immediate backup plan and called to soothe me about it. She helped us make last minute meal accommodations for picky children. However, she was most amazing the day of the wedding when it rained and totally changed our plans for an outdoor ceremony. She and her staff cheered me up in the morning and as soon as I walked down the aisle and saw the room and the rest of the wedding play out, I was simply happy and amazed. You would’ve thought that everything was exactly as it was supposed to be and it was all beautiful. She was there to support us through the day and kept us on task with photos so that our guests could eat on time.
The rain made it so the day wasn’t as planned, but Brandi and the venue still made it the perfect day and we are so grateful (I teared up a little writing this).

Front nine and back nine are very different. The front is relatively wide open and has a couple of memorable holes. I particularly enjoy the stretch of holes 6 through 8.
Six is a nice par 3 over water (it is the hole you pass on your way into the parking lot)…I believe it is modeled after one of the famous par 3’s at Augusta National.
7 might not look like much, but it is fun to play. It is only about 220 yards to the woods, so no driver off the tee here. About 160 – 179 yards from the tee the hole turns sharply right and is split by a brook. Place a fairway wood or hybrid in the center of the fairway and you only have a 100 yard or less shot over the brook to a two tiered green. Some may even get daring a try to cut the corner over the trees and reach the green in one shot… but you have to be a long hitter that can hit a a medium iron a long way with a lot of loft.
Hole 8 is a downhill, dogleg left par 4. If you can hit a draw you can put yourself in great shape for a birdie. If not, just aim for the middle of the green on your second shot. Your approach has to go over a brook and marsh area.
The back nine start with a tough tee shot on a par 5… over a marsh with trees on the right. It also turns slightly right and is a bit uphill. A well place bunker on the left side of the fairway collects errant tee shots.
The back nine is much tougher than the front and has more tree lined fairways. A few holes will challenge just about any golfer, but there are a few «easier» holes on the back that let you catch your breath.
I would give this course 5 stars if it wasn’t for two things: First it is on the pricier side. Not a deal breaker by any means, but it is a few dollars more then the average cost to play nine or eighteen. Secondly, and this is my main complaint, there are a couple of holes (mainly 15 &16) that seem like a complete after thought and feel like out of place compared to the rest of the course. Hole 15 is debatable as it is a par 4 that doglegs sharply to the left and has an elevated tee box that makes it reachable in one for some. However I find the landing area of this hole is almost always in rough shape and the hole in generally is not as well maintained as the rest of the course. Hole 16 is nothing more than filler. It is a short and completely forgettable par 3. Too bad since the rest of the course is fantastic, but I’m getting kind of picky with these two holes.
All in all this is a great course that shouldn’t be missed. If you like to play nine in an hour or just under, the front nine are for you. My wife and I can get the front nine done in about 1:40 if there aren’t any slow groups in front of us.
Play this course if you haven’t already!

I have been here 3 more times since the initial review for lunch. Once on a Friday, a Saturday and a Sunday, all mid afternoon between 1 – 3 This place is always empty even when the weather is terrific, which i do not understand, maybe I’m just going at weird times or the country club persona scares people away because they think of cost and dress code? but this place is very laid back and affordable.
The food and beer is really good and the deck has an amazing view. Its like the derryfield but without the crowd and better food!
I recommend the triple deckerclub house, the nachos and the beef terriake skewers.

This review is based on the restaurant (open to the public) at the Stonebridge Country Club.
I traveled about 15 minutes out of Manchester to this secluded golf course for dinner. Once here, the restaurant is directly straight ahead inside the clubhouse, which has several tables inside complete with cocktail bar in the corner, TV, and a fireplace. There’s also outdoor patio seating out on the deck which overlooks the beautiful golf course and also outdoor screenhouse seating to the side as well.
I sat myself outside around 7PM on a very quiet Thursday evening and the waitress was over taking my order shortly. Currently, the Golf Season Menu is being offered which can be found at
The atmosphere out on the deck is very relaxed, a night and day contrast between The Derryfield deck in Manchester, which is very noisy and crowded.
Started out with the Personal Size Nachos with Chili ($ 9.99), crispy corn tortilla chips loaded with cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, black olives, onions, jalepenos, pepperoncini, chili, and served with sour cream and a cup of medium salsa, which were very good especially with the sweet and spicy beef & black bean chili. Next, I enjoyed the Bay Scallops Wrap Special ($ 8.99) served with choice of frittes (fries) or house cut chips, ketchup, and pickle. The House Cut Chips were lightly fried and salted with large grain salt and very good. The wrap was very tasty and filled with breaded bay scallops, lettuce & tomatoes.
Overall, the food was very good and the service was very attentive throughout my meal with the waitress going outside to check up on the meal. However, as the meal progressed and after the sunset, it got really buggy and the mosquitoes were out in full force. I needed to go inside to settle up on the check. As I was leaving, there were a couple groups of golfers enjoying pitchers of beer, drinks, and food inside the clubhouse.
Anywho, I would recommend outdoor patio dining on nice sunny or clear days before the sunset. The place typically closes around 8PM during the spring.
