Woodcliff is a Gordon Odenback design located in Fairport, New York, a suburb in the Rochester metropolitan area. The course serves as part of the Woodcliff Hotel and Spa property, making it accessible to both resort guests and members. Odenback, a regional architect active in upstate New York during the mid-to-late twentieth century, designed courses that typically work with the natural terrain and vegetation of the Finger Lakes region. The layout occupies rolling terrain characteristic of western New York, with elevation changes that provide variety in shot-making and strategic options. The property features mature tree-lined fairways and views of the surrounding landscape. As a hotel course, Woodcliff balances challenge for accomplished players with playability for resort guests and recreational golfers. The design incorporates water features and bunkering that require thoughtful course management without becoming overly penal. The course operates within the broader amenities of the Woodcliff property, which includes lodging, dining, and spa facilities. This context shapes the golfing experience, as the course serves both destination visitors and local players. The setting in Fairport, near the Erie Canal and not far from the Finger Lakes, places Woodcliff in a region with a strong golf tradition and numerous courses dating from various eras of American golf architecture.
