New York Golf Courses Comments:
This club has three nine hole courses that are played in three eighteen hole combinations. The club is located out in the country, and the courses are very scenic. The Highland and Valley Courses were built on rolling terrain and feature open fairways and medium-sized greens. The Taconic Course is extremely hilly, so expect many uneven lies.

Just north of Manhattan in New York’s Hudson Valley, Branton Woods Golf Club opened for play October 2001. This Eric Bergstol designed championship track is constructed over gently rolling terrain. Parkland by design, the fairways are largely tree-lined, with a few open holes affording beautiful views of the surrounding Storm King Mountains. The large greens are nicely undulated with subtle breaks, and quick.

This parkland style course was built on rolling hills, so expect many uneven lies. Water hazards come into play on seven holes, including the first, a 478-yard, par 5, featuring a stream that crosses the fairway in front of the well-bunkered green. The tree lined fairways are narrow and sand bunkers protect the small greens on almost every hole.

This is a very scenic and challenging course, which features very narrow fairways and small greens. There are no sand bunkers, but there are numerous mature trees lining the fairways and coming into play on seven of the nine holes.

Formerly known as the Island Green Golf Course, this facility recently changed it's name to the Silo Ridge Country Club. This very picturesque course is located on the foothills of a mountain. The fairways are wide open because they are lined by young trees, and the medium-sized greens are slow. Water hazards come into play on four holes.

This tight course is loaded with many picturesque views. Water hazards (two ponds) come into play on three holes. Some of the fairways are hilly, but all of them are bordered with a medium-to-high cut of rough. The signature hole is 3, a downhill 342-yard, par 4, requiring a tee shot down a dogleg right fairway with a pond on the left, then an approach shot to a green that slopes from back to front. Stephen Kay redesigned one hole in 1990.
