Duston Country Club
About Duston Country Club
Duston Country Club is a nine-hole golf course in Hopkinton, New Hampshire, built in 1926 by Arty Duston on land that had previously served as a sheep farm and lumber yard. The former saw mill, now converted into a house, is still visible from the third tee. Duston shaped the third green like a heart in honor of his wife, Charlotte, and that contour remains in place today. His golf clubs hang in the club's dining room.

Ownership later passed to Stan White, who is remembered with a bench at the first tee and a memorial tournament, and then to his son Bob, who with his wife Maureen held the course for 38 years. The pair lengthened the eighth green into its present dogleg form and built the clubhouse that stands today. In 2021 they sold the course to Ryan Hall, a longtime member and employee.
The clubhouse includes the Tenth Tee Tavern, where artwork on the walls documents the club's history. A chocolate Labrador named Kenobi serves as course mascot.
