Spook Rock--a local gem
I've been playing Spook Rock for 40 years. It's a bit of a challenge but quite fair. For this time of year (early Spring and cold) the greens and bunkers were in very good shape. Spook is in my standard rotation of courses for a good reason--it's a fine municipal track with a nice friendly staff.
Great Test
Being early in the season course was surprisingly dry and bunkers were in great shape. Greens were a bit slow as expected but rolled true. Lots of undulation and holes had character with doglegs and ponds on par 5's. Will def be back

Spook Rock - Suffern NY
REALLY enjoyed this course. No complaints, just great all around.
Lots of dog legs
This course is all dog legs! It makes you think of where to hit to. For December most leaves were cleared, I was able to find my ball most of the time.
Leaves everywhere
Played on the 21st of Nov.. Course was overwhelmed by leaves.... poorly maintained. Leaves everywhere even in the sand traps. If you plan on playing this course do it in the spring or summer. FORGET ABOUT THE FALL.
Spook Rock 11/8
Arrived at the course not knowing what to expect and received a good welcome from the course manager. The Pro shop is small and has a limited supply of items. Putting green and driving range are more than adequate. Golf today was winter rules as it rained the night before leaving the ball muddy shot after shot. Tee boxes, fairways and greens were in excellent condition. Leaves lined both sides of most fairways making it difficult to find the ball if you had an errant shot.
I would suggest that players playing this course for the first time to play with someone that has local knowledge of the layout. The restaurant on the turn had my food ready to go and was reasonably priced. I look forward to returning and playing the course again.
Nice
Nice old course. Check in and cafe a bit out dated but a decent track. A bit expensive as compared to non municipal courses but worth playing.
Horrible Experience
Arrived for my 2:42 tee time and was sent out without any mention of the TWO tournaments happening at the course that day. Also, no mention of the absurd overbooking they had done. An hour in and we had completed three holes total. After three hours I gave up after the front nine was completed. A complete and utter waste of a Saturday afternoon.
When I tried to address the issue with the millennial at the check in desk I was told I should have expected a slow pace and that I was wrong to assume I'd be able to play an entire round in five hours.
No acknowledgment that they were wrong to book people and not warn them about the potential slow play. They had my money, they didn't care. Save yours. This place is run terribly. Which is too bad because for a county course it's actually in decent shape overall.
Great Public Course
It's a pleasure playing at a public course that is in good shape!
Solid overall track with great conditions
Heard many positive things about Spook Rock and was glad I got the chance to play it. Also abouts it's slow play but playing on a Tuesday it wasn't a factor. It's a solid layout, different types of tee shots are needed on different types of holes to score. Working the ball both ways is necessary to get yourself in good position on approaches. Various holes are picturesque and course conditions for the most part great. Ruff was a little high so missing fairways was a bit more penal. Tee boxes were in great shape with little to no broken tees laying around, fairways were lush, and the undulating greens were great with little to no ball marks on them. Definitely one of the best public tracks I have played in proximity to NYC. I actually used all 14 clubs in my bag so hole variations were great. Food at the halfway house was tasty and staff was super friendly. Just a great change of scenery from NYC courses.
Slow Play
Left after 10 holes. Waiting 10 minutes on every shot. Slow play caused by group in front walking from cart parked on path to ball then hitting shot 10 feet and dropping another ball.
Slow play
There's a lot of people that walk this course. we booked it on GolfNow which included a cart. we waited to tee off every hole and waited for her second shot also . I think we would of enjoyed the round more if we walked
