About this course

Mosholu Golf Course, tucked into the northern reaches of the Bronx, bears the unassuming mark of a classic municipal layout, more a proving ground for burgeoning golfers than a bastion of championship play. Its charm lies in its accessibility and community spirit. The original design, while not attributed to a marquee name, reflects a mid-century approach to accommodating a wide range of skill levels on limited acreage. It's a parkland style, defined by relatively flat terrain carved out amidst the urban landscape. Players will find generous fairways that reward a slight draw, while the modest length is balanced by strategically placed bunkers that penalize wayward shots. Mosholu's legacy is less about hosting prestigious tournaments and more about fostering a vibrant local golf scene. Its modest clubhouse is rumored to house the best coffee, alongside a diverse membership who enjoy a post-round cup as much as the round itself. It remains a beloved neighborhood institution and a place where the game is accessible to all.

Getting there

Most visitors to Mosholu Golf Club & Driving Range arrive via LaGuardia Airport, a quick fifteen-minute drive northwest into the Bronx, though Newark Liberty and JFK serve as alternatives depending on broader itineraries. The route threads through the dense urban fabric of New York's northernmost borough, trading expressway for tree-lined parkways as you approach Van Cortlandt Park's sprawling greenspace. Mosholu sits tucked within this surprising oasis, a municipal gem where the city's relentless energy gives way to open fairways and the quiet rhythm of practice swings - proof that golf in New York need not mean leaving the five boroughs behind.
