Woodcrest Golf Club

Woodcrest Golf Club, carved into the rolling landscape outside Manlius, NY, reflects a commitment to traditional values and a strategic, thoughtful round of golf. Its layout presents a distinct parkland character, where tree-lined fairways emphasize shot placement and course management over sheer length. The course favors a precise game, rewarding players who can navigate doglegs and undulating greens with accuracy. Designed by an unrecorded architect (with local lore suggesting a hand from early club members), Woodcrest has evolved organically over the decades. While it may not boast a national championship pedigree, Woodcrest is a proud host to regional amateur events, fostering a competitive spirit among its tight-knit membership. The course, known for its welcoming atmosphere, also has developed its own culinary reputation, with a beloved clam chowder that members anticipate each season. Woodcrest offers a uniquely relaxed yet challenging experience, embodying the enduring appeal of classic golf.
