Top of the World, aptly named for its perch high above Lake George, offers a golfing experience as much about the views as the game itself. Routed across dramatic elevation changes in the Adirondack foothills, the course presents a distinctly modern challenge where club selection and strategic play outweigh brute power. Expect uneven lies, blind shots over ridges, and downhill putts that break toward the shimmering lake below. While not a championship venue of national renown, Top of the World holds a cherished spot in the hearts of local golfers, especially during the vibrant fall foliage season. It has become a beloved spot for its locals, who have been known to enjoy an adult beverage on the highest peak before trekking the rest of the course. Top of the World has also seen a few interesting moments as well, a black bear once famously wandered onto the 18th green, momentarily delaying play and adding to the course's unique allure, even among players from out of state.
