Casperkill Golf Club in Poughkeepsie is situated in the heart of the Hudson River Highlands, surrounded by acres of lush, rolling countryside. The course wanders through stands of towering oak trees and circles a few tranquil ponds before moving along the banks of its namesake creek. The gently rolling hills provide the course with elevated tees and terraced greens. Robert Trent Jones designed the golf course in 1944. He created a traditional layout that fully utilizes all of the features of the scenic terrain. The course finishes with a player-friendly hole that offers a great opportunity for a birdie. There is a bunker in front of the green but if played smartly as a three-shot hole, golfers will be generously rewarded. In addition to the golf course, Casperkill also offers a driving range with multiple target greens and a large practice putting green with a chipping and bunker area.

I have been a member there this year. Everything about this place is wonderful. Starting with Jennifer who runs it to every employee that is there. It’s been challenging for the maintenance team because of all the rain but the place is terrific. I would recommend Casperkill to anyone.

Great day Great course

For mid October the course was in incredible shape. The tee times weren’t jammed together and the pace was easy. My regular course is West Point and it’s not even close in maintenance to Casperkill. Can’t recommend it enough

First Time Playing

Won’t be going back

Had a 150 teatime once we hit the 10th hole we ran into the back of a golf outing on top of a Monday night league

There were 12 foursomes waiting at the 10th hole to tee off
So we decided to skip 10-11 and start on 12 to keep playing as soon as we finished with 12th whole we were approached by golf course workers and asked to leave for jumping a whole

No Dress code posted but they have one

I was wearing a Vineyard Vines mock neck golf shirt and told I need a collared shirt. For one I bought the shirt at a course and two they don’t actually have a dress code posted.

Great public course

Well maintained. Poor clubhouse. $20 per cart is too much.
Can’t beat course though for a public one

Cart path only was the reason for slower than usual pace of play. I was surprised that the carts were available due to all the rain.
