Nestled in the Lower Hudson Valley, Putnam County Golf Course enjoys a scenic location amid rolling hills yet it’s not too far from the city. Formerly known as Putnam National, the club was originally opened as a private club in 1959, it opened to the public when it was bought by the county in 2004 but it continues to offer the quality and amenities of a private country club. The golf course has front and back nines that are completely different from one another so be prepared to use all the clubs in your bag. Water hazards only come into play on two holes but don’t let that fool you, this course is formidable even for avid golfers. Putnam County Golf Course's final four holes are an especially challenging stretch that will test you with everything from uphill lies to a slew of strategically placed bunkers.

Nice Course!

Very nice public course, with well-kept grounds. Challenging enough to make play enjoyable. Met some nice folks during play. Will definitely play here again.

Spur of the moment!

Friend and I were in the Peekskill area for 2 days. Decided to check out Putnam on a whim. We live in Buffalo area and we have never played on a public course as nice as this one. For the price, it was a great course. It was challenging enough to make us want to come back and try again. Maybe next time we can read the greens a little better. All in all it was a great day of golf.

Great day to play Putnam County GC

I always like playing this course and a bonus this time to get out earlier than our scheduled tee times. The course was in good shape being it's the beginning of the season. The staff are always friendly and welcoming.

Need a Ranger out there to speed up play

If you play here, make sure you have nothing planned for the rest of the day. The pace of play is always slow. We were 4.5 hours in to hole 14….. didn’t have enough time to finish the round.
