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.

Casper

front 9 seemed to move quickly but we caught 2 slow groups on back 9 which ruined our pace. Typical Sunday Traffic. Course is very nice, greens were slow.

Solid course! I’d recommend playing if in the area.

Second time playing this course, overall a good value for the money and an interesting course layout. The greens roll pure but they’re a little soft IMO. Also odd that most of the greens are noticeably uphill shots.

Staff is pretty rude and impatient. Carts are OK and have a nice GPS with putting heat maps.

I like playing this course when it’s not easy for me to get a reservation in lower Westchester on the weekends.

Brutal Pace Lately

Time to get a ranger out there. I play here pretty regularly and enjoy the course. It's one of my favorites in the area. I probably played here between 20 to 30 times last year and never once had a problem with the pace. I've probably played here around 10x this year as well. But the past few times, the pace of play has been brutal. Going to be taking a break from playing here for a while.until they can get the 5 hour rounds under control. Nothing worse than waiting 10 minutes on every tee box. Impossible to get a rhythm going.

Course in great shape, challenging but fair

Booked this course due to its proximity to the hotel we were staying at in Highland. We were pleasantly surprised by the condition of the course. The fairways and green were in superb condition lThe course was pretty wide open, which was forgiving for mediocre golfers like us. Pace of play was also excellent as we were playing early afternoon on a Wednesday. Course was naturally beautiful as well. Overall a 5 out of five, and I'm sure that my playing partners would agree. Highly recommend!

Great course for the money can’t beat it, sometimes pace of play is annoying more staffing is needed to force people to hurry up.

Overall this course is a great value for the money and would recommend people to come and try it illi for themselves.
