Somers National Golf Club

Course was in good shape minus the tee boxes. Greens were in very good shape. Course is very tight. Good test of skill

Great course... played during Covid-19 and the greens were fantastic. Raised cups but that didn’t bother me.

Loved the mix of holes... great par 5’s and 3’s, a few short driveable par 4’s. Tee boxes were messy but rather would have that over the greens being a mess. Really enjoyed coming here and drove 75 minutes to get there, but would do it again for sure

I would covert this in to condos. Place needs a complete makeover

Great course... fantastic greens... excellent mix of holes. Great par 5s and 3s. Lot of uphill/downhill and a nice variation of shots. Would definitely play there again

It was great time playing this course. I used to play this golf course with a golf cart. In this unusual season, I played by foot. It was not easy to go up and down the hills. It was a good time relax and enjoy not much stressful moment while I was playing at this beautiful golf course.

Nice course

tight fairways

short

good greens

poor tee boxes

Somers is a classic little mountain golf course. It features elevation changes in virtually every hole, narrow sloping fairways and spectacular views of the surrounding hills. Do not be chives by the short yardages on some of the holes. A lack of length is compensated for with changes in elevation and fairways that are slivers of hope a mere 200 yards beyond the tee box.

A couple of holes feature landing areas that are criminally narrow, and the fun starts with the first two holes. However, the greens are large targets, which is fortunate as many of the approaches are severely up or down hill.

This is a difficult course the first time around. Local knowledge is key. Yardages to doglegs, hazards, and out of bounds are a mystery. Sprinkler heads aren’t labeled with yardage. The 100yd and 150 us markets are small and buried in the fairways. There are no stripes on the cart paths.

The tee boxes are this courses downfall.. It’s tough to find truly level ground on many of the tee boxes , for that matter it’s tough to find grass on the tee boxes . It’s early in the season, but for a club that sells memberships and bills itself public/private, the course could be in better shape.

Greens are enormous relative to the test of the course . They roll fast and true. Unfortunately the cretins that frequent the track aren’t familiar with the practice of repairing their ball marks. The signature hole is a double dogleg 624 yard par 5 with an approach over water.

Overall, a challenging course that is let down a bit with shoddy maintenance and a lack of attention to detail. If ever a course needed a diagram of the hole on every tee, it this one. I’ll come back just to salvage some pride.

Played here late last year...tee boxes were a disaster, and the ground was rock hard. Wanted to give it another chance earlier in the season this year.

Speculations were correct and this place was still a mess. Tee boxes were even worse. The drainage is non existent. Nothing but swamp. Idk what was worse, the ground last year or this year.

Just seems like no effort goes into maintaining the grounds. Sucks because its a great layout and a very aesthetically pleasing course. A little effort would go a long way. The recent Covid19 closure, or maybe the entire past off season would have been a perfect time. Guess they dont see it that way.

2nd time playing there recently. Course still needs some TLC and staff was out doing work and seeding today, Really enjoy this layout. No 2 holes alike, with lots of hills, and elevated tee boxes and greens. Tight fairways and enough water to add additional challenges. Been walking the course....great if you’re looking for a workout

The course itself is really a lot of fun: narrow in most places, lots of severe doglegs that put a premium on shot placement, a lot of variety in hole design. Don’t expect to walk on the course for the first time and shoot a low number. I think after I play it a few more times the layout will be even more interesting. Those are the pros.

The cons are that the course really needs work in conditions of the fairways, a few greens and almost every tee box. There are too many bare spots to overlook and the tee boxes were simply awful.

If you are looking for lush and plush, you will be disappointed.

But in comparison to other public courses ( although it’s a semi private club) I would definitely come back and play it again, as long as it was priced at the same as the Westchester County courses. But I wouldn’t pay more than that.

The staff was nice, and the amenities were closed, and looked average to good but not spectacular.

If you get a decent price, definitely play, it will hold your interest. But buyer beware.

First time there. Great pace, hilly course, interesting layout. Fairways and Tee boxes need some attention, but overall nice course. Price today $55....next week popping up to $75. Not sure it’s worth that price until some upkeep done.

Played this course in mid March and walked. The course has a nice lay out, some narrow fairways, and a few elevation changes which made the course challenging. The course played as expected for this time of year under winter conditions. The staff was friendly, pace of play was average.

Course is well-maintained and in good condition, they removed a lot of trees to open up Some fairways, I will be going back very soon.

Thanks

Wonderful golf course and it ain't easy! If I lived closer I would become a member!

Great value. Be ready to eat humble pie. Extremely difficult course. Groundskeeper does not enjoy parks. Birdies are a fantasy.
