Saratoga Spa State Park

Going to be great and super close to home

$8 to get into the park. Course surrounds their nice pool. Mix of wooded and semi open fairways. Couple of the holes with pretty tight openings off the tee. Most have alternate pin location giving it a different feel. When finished can hop into the pool for $2 in season.

$8 park entry fee (in Summer only, and only til 5pm) or park at the Rt 50 gate and it's a short-ish walk in. 9 Baskets with 2 tee boxes per. Great course to work on your short game, basically no elevation change. Can get around 18 in under an hour.

My first and go to course. I learned here, and think it is fabulous place to learn, aside from no elevated holes. The nine baskets with two tee's per basket is well laid out. Obviously it is a state park, so you can't avoid pedestrian's -you just have to be patient when park is busy, or come during off hours.

Basic very beginner friendly.

For a State Park this large , there's no reason it shouldn't be a legit 18 hole or more course. The tees were immaculate but the entire rest of the course was a sheer sheet of ICE . I would play there again perhaps but not in the winter and well I'm not into paying to park to use the course when the Park officially opens

9 hole course. People all over the the fairways. Someone is going to get hurt on this course for sure.
