Concord Crest Golf Course

Concord Crest Golf Course sits in East Concord, a rural area south of Buffalo in western New York's rolling terrain. The course was designed by Don Ploetz, a regional architect who worked primarily in the Northeast during the latter half of the twentieth century. His designs typically emphasize playability for a wide range of golfers while working within the natural contours of the land. The routing at Concord Crest takes advantage of the area's gentle hills and wooded corridors characteristic of this part of Erie County. The property features elevation changes that provide variety in shot-making demands and create natural definition between holes. Mature trees frame many fairways, and the layout incorporates both open and more enclosed playing corridors. Water features and bunkers provide strategic interest without overwhelming the design's fundamental accessibility. As a public facility, Concord Crest serves local golfers and visitors exploring western New York's golf offerings. The course operates within the region's seasonal climate, with play typically running from spring through fall. Its setting offers views of the surrounding farmland and wooded hills that define this section of the state, providing a quiet, pastoral atmosphere removed from urban centers. The facility maintains a straightforward, community-oriented character typical of municipal and daily-fee courses in smaller New York towns.
