About
Casperkill Golf Club in Poughkeepsie is situated in the heart of the Hudson River Highlands, surrounded by acres of lush, rolling countryside. The course wanders through stands of towering oak trees and circles a few tranquil ponds before moving along the banks of its namesake creek. The gently rolling hills provide the course with elevated tees and terraced greens. Robert Trent Jones designed the golf course in 1944. He created a traditional layout that fully utilizes all of the features of the scenic terrain. The course finishes with a player-friendly hole that offers a great opportunity for a birdie. There is a bunker in front of the green but if played smartly as a three-shot hole, golfers will be generously rewarded. In addition to the golf course, Casperkill also offers a driving range with multiple target greens and a large practice putting green with a chipping and bunker area.

Don’t miss if you’re in the area
Just an outstanding course. Ups n downs, water and length what’s not to like. Greens are slow compared to others but that’s not a reason to pass on it.
Review a little unfair due to two days of rain. Traps were full of water and a lot of standing water on the course. Cart path only is tough for us because my playing partner is walking disabled. Ladies amateur tournament was just finishing up when we got there which put us about 10 minutes behind. This course is usually impeccable but today wasn’t the day. If it wasn’t a golf now round we probably would have played somewhere else when we found out it was cart path only
Course was fantaztic
Stopped by Casperkill today for an afternoon of golf. Have to say as far as the course conditions go I couldn't have asked for anything better!....For late June the fairways. Roughs and greens were all immaculate!....Carts were great and equipped with sand to fill in divots to help keep the course solid for the remainder of the season and I believe the GPS system was new since I played here last year. Super helpful for obstacle yardage.
Outstanding Value
Golf course was in excellent condition. Challenging Greens. Staff very friendly,. Highly recommended.
Worth the Drive
Casperkill is a great alternative to the slow, crowded and expensive public tracks of Fairfield and Westchester Counties. The classic layout is a good test from the blue tees, but for lesser golfers a good mix of long and short holes also make it fun from the whites too. 17 solid golf holes, # 9 is terrible but blame the terrain.
The greens are on the slow side, but overall it is usually in good shape. They have made an effort to improve the bunkers, so my only complaint is the goose **** on the water holes, so that will be a problem unless they get a dog.
I’ve walked 18 in ~ 3 hours multiple times and recently played in less than 4 hours on a holiday weekend!
Nice driving range and practice area, minimal pro shop. There is a restaurant on site, but it’s kind of dark and depressing. Nice people but just not the kind of place I want to hang out in on a nice summer day.
Very pleasant
Nice course pace of play was great. Just needed to have some of the debris blown off the putting surface. Other than that it was awesome.
