The Edison Club's Second course is located in Rexford, a small community in Saratoga County in upstate New York, situated along the Mohawk River north of Schenectady. The course was designed by Devereux Emmet, a prolific architect of the early twentieth century who worked extensively throughout the northeastern United States. Emmet, active primarily from the 1900s through the 1930s, designed or redesigned dozens of courses in New York, New Jersey, and New England, and is known for layouts that work naturally with existing terrain while maintaining playability for a range of golfers. The Edison Club itself takes its name from the General Electric connection to the Schenectady area, where Thomas Edison's company established major operations in the late nineteenth century. The club has historically served the professional and managerial community associated with GE and other regional industries. As a second course at the facility, this layout likely complements a primary championship course, offering members an alternative routing that may be shorter, more accessible for everyday play, or routed over different terrain on the property. Emmet's design approach typically emphasized strategic bunkering, greens with subtle contours, and routing that followed the natural flow of the land. In this region of New York, courses often feature rolling terrain, mature tree-lined fairways, and playing conditions influenced by the transitional climate of the upper Hudson Valley.
