About this course
Erie Village at The Links, in the rolling landscape of East Syracuse, marries the spirit of Scottish links with upstate New York terrain. Carved into a former farmland, the course offers a stimulating blend of open fairways and strategically placed water hazards, demanding thoughtful club selection, rewarding well-placed drives while favoring a draw, especially on the back nine. Originally designed as a more forgiving public course, Erie Village has matured into a deceptively challenging layout. Its undulating greens, often guarded by subtle slopes and swales, test even the most seasoned putter. While not a championship venue, Erie Village serves as a popular hub for local tournaments and community events, fostering a welcoming and accessible atmosphere. More than just a round of golf, Erie Village is known for its robust member-guest tournaments, known for their spirited competition and post-round clambakes – a tradition that reflects the area's rich culinary heritage. The club’s laid-back atmosphere and focus on community solidify its position as a local favorite.
