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.

Never heard “fore” yelled so many times...

Course was fine and staff was friendly. Course held up surprisingly well after downpour the night before. The group in front of us on the course were terribly slow. Fairways are all right near one another with minimal tree protection. We were ducking from balls all day and saw multiple people within a few feet of getting hit by balls. This needs to be addressed somehow.

Great day, but got beat by the Greens!!

8 of us played for our buddy’s birthday.

They were amazed by the conditions and value to walk on a weekend.

All of the staff were great. Clubhouse closed due to current situation, but the halfway hut was adequately appointed. Everyone wants to go back n try to beat the courses defense, those greens!!!
