Camillus Golf Club

Greens were freshly mowed. played in less than 4 hours. Fairways were nice considering that grass hasn`t got a chance to really get going yet. No wet spots problems at all..A real mice place to stop and have a beverage after..

One of those perfect days of golf! Early in the season and the conditions are pretty much mid-season!

It was a tough walk, but enjoyable. Holes are mostly straight. Only a few bunkers and penalty areas. Greens were smooth and true.

Didn’t expect course to be in great shape early in season. But philosophy towards golf now in reference to being early doesn’t cut it. I have been a golf now member for a very long time and played courses out west and many in Florida and NY using golf now. If I’ve got to course early and they had an opening they would say go out now… Management philosophy for golf now players at Camillus country, club you play at your TT. They don’t care what other courses do,this is Camillus Country club. So much for customer satisfaction. So they won’t have to worry about me getting there early or at all…. I’ll make all golf now people who prepay to understand your second rate customers at Camillus Country club.

Course, tee through fairways and on the greens always in very good condition. Even after wet rain, the course seems unaffected. I encourage those who have never played this course to try it. You will not be disappointed. Just a warning though--this course is a bit hilly, but with great views.

Fun challenging course, one of the best in the area. The driving range is the only weak spot.

Excellent greens

Fun golf course. The greens are in great shape. Very creative layout..

Fun course. Challenging. The greens are in great shape. I always enjoy playing at Camillus GC

Might be the last time this season here in CNY. Going to be cooler and wet. Jivi and his crew do a GREAT job with the course. New fluffy sand in the bunkers!!!!

So, I had read the reviews and wasn’t sure what to expect. I got to the course and it was a picture perfect fall morning. The gentleman working at the counter actually turned out t be the owner. He checked me in and said that the others I was supposed to play with had t checked in yet, and since I was a single, that o could go if I was ready. So I headed out and teed off. From the very first shot on the first tee. Yep things struck me. This was a very lush , very “ green” looking course. The dew was still on the fairways in spots and also in the shaded areas of the greens. The second thing I realized was just how hilly it was. On that note if you play, and I highly recommend that you do, stay BELOW the holes on the greens! It is not a long course, playing just 6500 ish from the tips, but it has teeth! If you’re out of position and can’t hit to the green to keep your ball under the hole ? You’ll be punished with a very difficult 2 putt! As a single digit handicap I found the course to be very fun. It’s got everything from downhill par fives where it’s bombs away off the tee, to a 200 ish yard par 3 that plays uphill to a sloping green.

It’s a very fair golf course and offers challenges to higher level golfers but is also very “ playable” by higher handicap players.

All in all, I was truly impressed with this little gem and left wishing I lived in the area as I absolutely would be a regular !

I will say that it would be a fantastic workout and you’d best be in decent shape if you want to walk it as there are some very hilly holes and slopes.

One last note, The three gentleman I fought up to on the second green who invited me to play along with them? Were an absolute delight equal to the delightfulness of the course. They were playing a skins game amongst themselves and offered expert advice on where to hit and putt as well as where not to.

As a guy who’s played literally all over the world from pebble beach to Loch Lomand in Scotland , as well as my local “

Muni” in southeastern connecticut, it’s extremely rare to have so much fun and be welcomed so warmly by everyone especially as a first timer. I cannot say enough good things and the Camillus golf club !

Thank you to the staff and the membership for taking my weekend from just another round in another place, to a spot I can’t wait to get back to!

The place was is better shape than I remember it. Greens were nice and decently fast. Fairways well cut. Tee's need to be rolled, lots of unlevel tees. For this time of year I was happy with the conditions.

Tee boxes are horrible, every one has a big hump through the middle making your tee shots like playing on the side of a hill. Few fairways had some bare spots and all of them were hard as a rock. I was whacked with a $24 fee for having my gf ride with me (didn’t play), so heads up if someone is riding along. Save your $ and play elsewhere.
