The best private courses in Tuxedo Park, New York

“You’ve seen the pictures of 16 all over the internet, but the rest of the course is equally thrilling. Massive piece of property with an out and back routing that traverses hills, canyons, rivers, ponds, and rocky outcroppings.”

“I was lucky to grow up there and knew it then. It’s cast in the shadows of Winged Foot and Baltusrol but Ridgewood is so balanced, reflective of Tillinghast and offers so many good holes over the three 9’s.”

“Great routing located above the banks of the Hudson River. Course offers a great routing with scenic views, especially on the Par-3 16th hole.”

“Very tough opening stretch of holes, excellent par 5s, and generally thoughtful routing (loved the shared teebox on 16). Road hole reminded me of Merion.”

“A very solid course in golf rich Westchester. Cool doglegs, some blind shots, some long, some short, interesting green complexes. Not the best course in the world but really good across the board.”

“Hundreds if not thousands of trees have been cleared to reveal the subtle rolling topography here a few miles outside NYC. The greens have always been known as some of the best in North Jersey, and the playing conditions have never been better.”

“Really interesting course with probably the quirkiest greens I’ve ever played on. Not totally unfair overall but a tough test”

“North Jersey is an excellent example of how to make a course difficult in the modern game. Some extremely tough but fair greens are the equalizer to this course playing 6,700 yards from the tips. Really fun and challenging layout.”
