Wow, Glens Falls is SPECIAL!!!! I’ve been wanting to make the almost 5 hour long drive North to this 1912 Donald Ross Gem for years. Yesterday, I finally made the trip and it was worth every second!

Decent track in Upstate NY. 1 mile from Saratoga Race Track so the peak season prices get ridiculous. Other than the quality of the course itself, it’s nothing too special. Maintained well but pretty average design and scenery

Great layout, another upstate NY course under new management. Less than 5 years since but have made excellent progress in the time. Pace is god awful but that’s hard to combat in this day and age on public courses. Brewery on property is exceptional
