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.

Casperkill
Very nice course. In very good condition. Greens were a little slower than I like to play. Nice layout, fairly open, so not too difficult. I would certainly recommend it if you are in the area and looking for a nice course at a reasonable price. Play did seem to be a little slow for a week day, but not unbearable.
Great Course
There were many challenges and difficult holes with creeks and multi-tiered greens to navigate. It was fun
Better than average
A very nice course. Scenic, well maintained, nice fairways,greens, and bunkers. More difficult than most with a 129 slope from the white tees. Try it and you will be glad you did!
Great Course, Pace of play.
The pace of play was kind of long for mid-week, almost 5 hours.
Great Condition
The course is in great condition, the greens were a little slow but not bad. They put new sand in the bunkers with makes sand play much better. You will not be disappointed playing this course.
You have to play this course!
Course was in excellent shape! Never waited at any hole and staff was friendly and helpful! This is a Robert Trent jones course and it's fun and have some tough but fun holes. Highly recommend it!
Great course but poor bar and food service
We played as a threesome and found the course challenging but fair. The green were slow!!!!!! The use of GPS in the carts was a definite plus!!!!!
Overall the course was in good shape. The only down side was when we used the option on the GPS to order food. We ordered on the 8th tee and when we arrived at the bar/restaurant to get our order we were told by the very sexy waitress/hostess/bartender that the cook was working on our order. Well 20 minutes later we FINALLY got our order. Worst burger I ever had - HOCKEY PUCK that was over cooked - I MEAN BURNT!!!!! We went to the 10th tee where we found ourselves behind 3 more groups.
However, we had a great time.
Excellent maintenance
It is a challenging course.
Fairways and bunkers were well maintained.
It was fun 4hour playing.
One of the best valued course I have ever played.

Casperkill golf
Worth the money. Good course and well maintained. You will not be disappointed.
Challenging
Course was in good shape and as challenging as ever.
Course is fun to play
Fun course.
Well maintained
Greens were a little slow
Fairways were cut well
Rough was at a good height
Challenging but not crazy difficult
The course was in great shape. The greens are in excellent condition. Hope they can maintain the condition through out the year!
Price point
Good course but a little steep on price. Their are other courses just as nice in the area that are 30 dollars cheaper.
Great local Challenge
Casperkill is my second local course. A decent value for your money, since lunch is included. It is challenging at times but overall a decent course for slightly above beginners.
Local to POK and Route 9.
Course was in great shape. Wonderful fall golf!
The course was in great shape; very enjoyable autumn golf at a perfectly maintained course.
Greens are still not recovered from summer weather.
Many of the greens that were lost to the summer weather have still not recovered. Grass was very long on fairways and greens. The hole locations do not look as if they had been changed in a week (we played on a Saturday). But this may be due to the limited locations available on the damaged greens.
One of the best local public courses.
Greens were some of the best I've seen this season. Course is in good condition. The pace was quick but did not feel pushed. Staff is friendly and restaurant makes a great burger.
Very nice course.
Enjoyed playing there,nice carts , Hope it stays open.
