About this course

The Links at Hiawatha Landing occupies a site in Apalachin, a small community in the Southern Tier region of New York near the Pennsylvania border. Designed by Brian Silva and Mark Mungeam, the course opened in the early 2000s as part of a broader residential and recreational development along the Susquehanna River valley. Silva, known for his work on classic restorations and traditional designs throughout the Northeast, collaborated with Mungeam on a layout that reflects links-style principles adapted to the inland terrain of upstate New York. The routing takes advantage of rolling topography with open, windswept characteristics that distinguish it from the heavily wooded parkland courses common to the region. Wide fairways, strategic bunkering, and firm playing surfaces encourage ground game options and reward thoughtful course management. The property's elevation changes and natural contours provide variety in hole presentation, while views extend across the surrounding valley landscape. The course serves both daily-fee play and members, making championship-caliber design accessible to a range of golfers in the Binghamton area. Its design philosophy emphasizes walkability and strategic interest over forced carries or excessive length, consistent with Silva's approach to creating courses that honor traditional architecture while accommodating modern play. The facility represents one of the more significant golf developments in this part of New York, where new course construction has been relatively limited compared to other regions of the state.

Getting there

The journey to The Links at Hiawatha Landing begins at Binghamton-Greater Binghamton Airport (BGM), a compact regional gateway just fifteen minutes west of the club. The drive traces the Susquehanna River valley through quiet stretches of southern New York's rolling farmland and wooded hillsides, a landscape that feels worlds removed from the urban corridor yet remains comfortably accessible from the Northeast. As you turn off Route 434 into Apalachin, the transition is subtle but unmistakable - the road narrows, the river bends closer, and the Links emerges along the floodplain like a hidden gem carved into the valley floor, its fairways framed by the gentle rise of the surrounding hills.
