Atunyote Golf Club at Turning Stone

This got a lot of hype from friends and it was my fav round of golf I have ever played. A lot of fun and open course with challenging Hazards

The experience starts when you get to an amazing gate that opens up and the drive up to the club house. Conditions were top notch and the routing was challenging yet playable. Was there for a bachelor party and the staff really made us feel welcomed. It’s a hefty price tag but for firm and fast greens and powder sand bunkers, you can’t be mad. Also the coolest bev cart I’ve ever seen

Decided to try turning stone for our annual buddies golf trip this year since we are from NY and travel is limited outside of the state. It is safe to say we will be returning to Turning Stone every year going forward. We played all three courses which were all excellent, but Atunyote stood out far from the pack. This course is everything you want in a golf course, perfectly manicured, aesthetically beautiful, fun layout, and good pace of play. We felt like we had the course to ourselves even though there were other groups out there. Our group has people with a wide variety of skill levels (single digit handicap - 20+) and this course pleased everyone. Yes it is not cheap, but if you truly appreciate golf it will be worth every penny. I can't wait to come back.

Yes, its expensive for a course in upstate NY, but where else can you play where the PGA has played? Its worth it! Conditions were excellent, the course is fun to play, not super hard like you might think. It will be a one time a year thing for me from now on.

Returning to Turning Stone does not disappoint. Golf at Turning Stone is not a round of golf but a golf experience. Our groups first round was at the Tom Fazio masterpiece, Atunyote. We played on September 16 2019, the weather was an extraordinary late summer day hovering around 70 degrees. The company was old friends and the course was beyond exceptional. These culmination of events, combined with the complete dedication of Turning Stone Golf to an amazing experience, made this one of the greatest, if not the greatest golf day of my 40 years of golf.

Our foursome was split among three tees, Blue (6998 Yards 74.4/140), White (6561 Yards 71.7/134) and Gold (6069 Yards 69.5/127). The fairways were pristine and the greens rolled pure. Green speed was 10.5 and required a keen eye to read the subtle breaks. The breathtaking natural beauty of this course is recognized as it sits in a Certified Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary.

In 2019 Atunyote was once again on the Golf Digest top 100 courses the public can play. The Golf Digest award is just one of over twenty-five awards Atunyote has received since 2012. I have played many courses on Golf Digests list over the years. I have yet to find anything that exceeds Turning Stone dedication to the customers. From the moment you pass through the gate at Atunyote to the moment you leave the Fazio gem you are surrounded by excellence.

Make sure you arrive early the practice area is immaculate. The short game area is the best I have enjoyed since the last time I played Turning Stone. After the round take advantage of the clubhouse dining room and enjoy the view off the porch with a great meal, or your favorite drink. The only issue is Golf Adviser limits reviews to 5 stars, Turning Stone Atunyote clearly surpasses that scale.

This golf course was more challenging then the others at Turning Stone.. so beautiful with excellent course conditions. The greens were running fast that day!

I've played a number of great golf courses. This one is up there. I look forward to going back

Considered the jewel of the 3 courses at Turning Stone, this course delivers a great golf experience. Course is beautiful and in pristine shape. Playable and fun. Pro shop staff are friendly and helpful. Finish your round and take in the spectacular view on 19th hole on balcony of club house!

From the time you see the clubhouse you have a thought that this may be a special place. Turning Stone uses this course for tournaments and VIP’s so it has less play. Staff and food was good but food was a little slow. I included a pic of the beverage cart and you will understand why. This course and property is visually appealing. Flowers everywhere, a couple of waterfalls, and green grass everywhere. Very fair course, rough was pretty penalizing, bunkers could use some sand. No matter your handicap you would enjoy this course.

From the front gate to the 19th hole Atunyote will not disappoint!

Beautiful course in great condition. Very enjoyable to play with relatively open fairways. Bunker placement and undulating greens create a fun challenge. Looking forward to playing here again.

Beautiful Fazio design. Plenty of room to hit the ball but some great green complexes and terrific bunkering. Conditions were like a private club. I will definitely return.

Just as good as the last time. The flowers and the views are second to none. Not a blade of grass out of place. This course, and Turning Stone as a whole, are a bucket list destination. Plenty of water, especially on the back nine. The greens were rolling at 10.5 so make sure you leave yourself on the proper side of the hole.

The entrance to Atunoyte has one of the most spectacular gates you will see. The long and winding road gives you a preview of what the golf course will offer. Doug met us at the bag drop and proved to be an invaluable asset with guidance on where to go to change, check in, and get to the practice facility. Although we failed that since we didn't listen well.
As the host of a Tour event they have all the facilities although the locker room only has two showers. While not the best Fazio course I have played this one is well thought out and offers plenty of challenge depending on the tees you select.
The conditioning was excellent. We were virtually alone on. the course. New carts have GPS systems. Great mix of par threes, plenty of water and bunkers to avoid. After the round we showered and changed and enjoyed a tasty lunch before heading home. A great end to our trip.

I don’t even know where to begin. This course was absolutely fantastic. From the dew swept tee boxes to the rolling fairways, Atunyote was in fantastic shape. The breakfast at the clubhouse was second to none. Highly recommend the home fires!

The greens were flawless. The bunkers were so nice to hit out of. I got plenty of practice as I frequented them often.

This course is certainly a tale of two nines as the back nine seemingly has water on every hole.

The practice facility has everything you could ever want to fine tune your game.

I HIGHLY recommend checking out this course if you are ever in the area.

I've played courses up and down the east coast..... This, for the $, is by far the nicest track I've been to.... Staff is unbelievably awesome! 7 people there for the day..... What a course!
