Casperkill Golf Club
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.

RE: QUICK DOWNPOUR
A 30 MINUTE QUICK DOWNPOUR defintely made the course a little wet in certain spots but otherwise the course was very nice. tough greens but it was out first time.... definitely coming back ...
No more
Since I'm moving, I decided to play Casperkill one more time before I left town. I should've played some place else.
The price and the pace of play are not worth it. I could've played The Links at Union Vale for the same price, and the Links is a top 10 course in the state. Also, I would've played The Links in 4 hours. My round at Casperkill was 5+ hours. Multiple people who were behind us, drove off the course and quit because of how slow it was. The brutal pace of play makes it not fun to play here anymore. I used to zip through and have fun. Also, there was no ranger and the starter told us we were running behind because he squeezed a few member groups out in the morning. So not only are we behind schedule, but the course is also packed to the gills.
Also, the greens at Casperkill are insanely slow.

Great course layout, pace of play is excellent on weekdays.

Course is great condition. Even with all the recent high temp’s and humidity the greens are rolling good and true.
Good time decent pace
Cool playing ibm course. Greens were in good shape, but inconsistent. Could have been morning dew drying out though.
Casper
front 9 seemed to move quickly but we caught 2 slow groups on back 9 which ruined our pace. Typical Sunday Traffic. Course is very nice, greens were slow.
Great course
Course was in great shape. The pace was slow but with the great weather it was expected.
Solid course! I’d recommend playing if in the area.
Second time playing this course, overall a good value for the money and an interesting course layout. The greens roll pure but they’re a little soft IMO. Also odd that most of the greens are noticeably uphill shots.
Staff is pretty rude and impatient. Carts are OK and have a nice GPS with putting heat maps.
I like playing this course when it’s not easy for me to get a reservation in lower Westchester on the weekends.
An amazing course!
With a friend staff well manicured greens and fairways what more could you ask for. The carts are new and have the built in “rangefinder” so even if you forget your own the carts are there to help. Lots of interesting holes and overall this was such a blast
Brutal Pace Lately
Time to get a ranger out there. I play here pretty regularly and enjoy the course. It's one of my favorites in the area. I probably played here between 20 to 30 times last year and never once had a problem with the pace. I've probably played here around 10x this year as well. But the past few times, the pace of play has been brutal. Going to be taking a break from playing here for a while.until they can get the 5 hour rounds under control. Nothing worse than waiting 10 minutes on every tee box. Impossible to get a rhythm going.
