Beautiful views of the Wallkill River and Shawnangunk Mountain ridge line. Hole lengths range from 228' to 515'. This is a moderate to heavily wooded course with several tight corridor shots and a few open shots. A mixed bag of uphill, downhill and level tee shots. Regarded by some as difficult due to forced technical throws, but there are several possible ace holes.

Tried this course on 10/8/2016. Nine enjoyable holes. The only issue was a longish walk between a couple of holes (3-4?). I think it is because they intend adding more holes later. Well signed and decent variation in topography. Nice to get a course in this area so thank you to the organizers!

Threw all 18 holes June 26, 2018 around 5-6 pm. It's a beautiful course, mostly shaded in the woods, with the last few holes out in the open. Great variations of uphill, downhill, and level fairways. Signs by every 'primitive' tee, and by looking at the worn path, you can easily find the next one. My 6 year old was with me, and we both enjoyed the walk through the woods. You're walking through grassy weeds quite often, but we had no problem with bugs. There are some nice views of the mountains and a couple holes are down by the river, but they don't pose serious water hazards. We stopped to get our feet wet in the stream crossed by a wooden bridge. This place is gorgeous. There are clean restrooms before hole one, next to the playground. Hopefully more people will come to this gem of a course, we didn't see anyone else throwing. Thank you!
