East at Oak Hill Country Club

Oak Hill's East Course is where legends are forged under the weight of major championship pressure. Carved into the rolling landscape just outside Rochester, New York, the East Course presents a classic parkland challenge from the Golden Age of golf. Donald Ross’s masterful routing, later enhanced by significant renovations led by Andrew Green, takes full advantage of the property's natural contours. Strategically placed bunkers and subtly sloping greens reward thoughtful shot-making, making it a cerebral test that requires more than brute force.

The East Course has served as a stern proving ground for golf’s elite. Six U.S. Opens, three PGA Championships, including Brooks Koepka's 2023 victory, and the Ryder Cup have all unfolded on its hallowed grounds. Few courses boast such a prestigious championship pedigree.

Oak Hill's membership reflects the club's enduring stature. Rooted in a culture of respect for the game and its traditions, it's a place where generations have shared a passion for golf. It’s also the location where the famed "Oak Hill Sleepy Hollow" incident took place which occurred when a group of club members drove down to the Sleepy Hollow Country Club to liberate, for a short time at least, some of the statues which they thought rightfully belonged at Oak Hill to begin with. That’s their tale at least.

Beyond the course, Oak Hill is known for its commitment to junior golf and its active caddie program, a point of pride for many members. It’s a community dedicated to perpetuating the values of the game for future generations and is one of the most well-known and sought after clubs for Rochesterians.
