The Omni Mount Washington's Enduring Allure: A Golf Course Worthy of Its Gilded Age Heritage As I stepped off the train at the Omni Mount Washington resort, nestled deep within New Hampshire's Presidential Range, its imposing red roofed hotel stood proudly as a testament to a bygone era of elegance and refinement.

The Mount Washington course, designed by Donald Ross, has a split personality between its front nine's more open parkland feel and the back nine's more dramatic contours.
