About this course

Sullivan County Golf & Country Club sits in Liberty, a small town in the Catskill Mountains region of southeastern New York. The club dates to the early twentieth century and reflects the modest, community-oriented golf culture common to rural upstate courses. Liberty itself lies roughly ninety miles northwest of New York City, in an area historically known for its resort hotels and summer retreats during the Borscht Belt era, though the golf course serves primarily local membership rather than seasonal visitors. The layout occupies rolling terrain typical of the Catskills foothills, with elevation changes that create natural variety in shot values and strategic interest. Tree-lined fairways and small, traditional greens characterize the design, which follows conventions of early American parkland golf without dramatic architectural flourishes. The course measures modest by contemporary standards, suiting recreational play and club competition more than championship events. Sullivan County maintains the straightforward character of a small-town club where golf serves as social anchor for the community. The facility includes a clubhouse that hosts member gatherings and local functions, reinforcing its role as a gathering place beyond the course itself. For golfers traveling through the Catskills, the club represents the unpretentious tradition of rural American golf—courses built for neighbors rather than tourists, where maintenance standards and playing conditions reflect available resources and the practical needs of a membership rooted in the surrounding area.

Getting there

Sullivan County Golf & Country Club sits in the rural heart of the Catskill foothills, roughly two hours northwest of New York City, making it most accessible via Stewart International Airport (SWF) in Newburgh, New York, or the closer regional hub of Monticello Airport (MSV) for private aviation. The drive from either gateway traces a gentle ascent through the Hudson Valley's transitional landscape - first suburban sprawl giving way to forested ridgelines and the distinctive rolling terrain of Sullivan County - before arriving at the club's quietly situated grounds near Liberty. For those departing the city, the journey itself becomes a deliberate deceleration, trading the intensity of the metropolitan corridor for the understated charm of upstate New York's golf country, where the Catskills' natural contours frame a classic American club experience far removed from the pressures of the coast.
