About this course

Hill-N-Dale Golf Country Club sits in Tully, a small town in the rolling terrain south of Syracuse in central New York. Robert Trent Jones Sr. designed the course during his prolific mid-century period when he established many of the strategic principles that defined American championship golf design. The property takes advantage of natural elevation changes in the landscape, with holes routed across hillsides and through wooded corridors typical of the region's glacially shaped topography. Jones brought his characteristic design philosophy to Hill-N-Dale: strategic bunkering, large greens with multiple pin positions, and risk-reward options that reward precise shotmaking. The course reflects the architect's belief that holes should challenge accomplished players while remaining playable for members of varying abilities. Tees, fairway hazards, and green complexes are positioned to create clear decision points from tee to green. The club serves the Syracuse area golf community and maintains the course as a member-focused facility. The layout moves through a mix of open and tree-lined holes, with the natural contours of the land providing both visual interest and strategic variety. Water features and bunker schemes frame landing areas and approach shots in the Jones style, requiring golfers to consider angles and distances rather than simply hitting for maximum length.

Getting there

Most visitors arrive through Syracuse Hancock International Airport (SYR), a straightforward twenty-minute drive south into the gently rolling farmland that defines this corner of Central New York. The route from the terminal follows Interstate 81 briefly before peeling off onto quieter state roads, where open pastures and weathered barns give way to the wooded hillsides that cradle Hill-N-Dale Golf Country Club. The transition is subtle but unmistakable - a shift from the bustle of the city to the unhurried rhythm of a classic American country club tucked into the landscape just outside Tully.
