Waumbek Golf Club is a public course in Jefferson, New Hampshire, with views of the Presidential Range from across the course. It sits on the site of the former Hotel Waumbek, a 19th century resort that once accommodated hundreds of guests before a 1928 fire destroyed the hotel. The course was laid out in 1895, making it the oldest golf course in New Hampshire. It plays to a par of 71 over 6,128 yards and follows the natural contours of the property beneath the White Mountains. The course fell into disrepair and closed for a period before new owners restored it and reopened play in 2024 with help from course architect Ross Forbes. Waumbek is open to the public daily and includes an on-site restaurant.
