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.

A pleasure always to play this course.
It never disappoints...they keep a good pace of play and the greens, Tee boxes, etc are well maintained.
Great public course
Well maintained. Poor clubhouse. $20 per cart is too much.
Can’t beat course though for a public one
Cart path only was the reason for slower than usual pace of play. I was surprised that the carts were available due to all the rain.
One of the Best in the Hudson Valley
Excellent facility with interesting holes on a hilly terrain. Course in excellent condition and the staff is accommodating and friendly.
Course in great shape four hour round. Super hot day would be nice if there was water on course
Nice course but walkers slow pace of play
We were paired with two nice men who walked. We had a cart and waited a lot to hit and for the walkers to reach the green. We were two holes behind by the end of the round. The course should only pair walkers with other walkers.
Nice course but not worth $80 to play.
No two holes are the same! I found the course interesting and challenging. Not sure how this course justifies $80 to play though. We played early on the weekend, so I expected to pay more than usual but this seems wrong.... Greens fees are simply too much for the quality of play. Excellent practice area,
Good value and nice course
Overall it was an excellent experience. The course is challenging in places but the women get a nice break from the red tees. The uphill holes are the most challenging. Practice facility is ok. It is off mats. There is a chipping and putting area.
Pace of play decent but the walkers can slow things down sometimes.
Would play again
A very nice public course with good pace of play and friendly starter.
Good has some challenging holes but the women’s tees are at least 20 yards shorter than the whites and significantly shorter on the par 5s.
Nice course with some quirky holes
This is a challenging course in that it is hilly and there are some long holes for women. The course was in excellent shape and I would play again.
