WATERVILLE VALLEY, N.H. -- A $500,000 renovation to the public Waterville Valley Golf Club has been completed, club officials have announced. The new-look facility will reopen for play this spring. The popular nine-hole course, which was built in 1893, now features three new holes, an irrigation system, new golf shop and a new half-acre pond. Three existing holes were redesigned, and the course now has four par-4 holes. The columns that highlight the doorway into the new golf shop are made of local timbers, and the rocks used in the structure were harvested from a stone wall that was removed from the facility during the renovation. The golf shop also boasts a 24-by-24-foot screened porch that looks out on the new ninth green and offers views of such 4,000-foot mountain peaks as nearby Mounts Tecumseh and Osceola.
