Too much

I had a tee time for around 12. When I arrived I was told there were no carts and I had to wait. I stood along with about 20 other golfers and waited over a half hour to get a cart. The cart was dirty and barely moved. But since the pace of play was so slow it didn’t matter. The Marshall told me that the tee times were 8 minutes apart. On certain holes there were 3 groups waiting to tee off. The course is nice but everything else is sub par. You would think for $90 that you would have a better golf experience.

Tough, but Great Course

Course is in excellent condition. It rained quite a bit few days before, so fairways were soft. Due to the new clubhouse construction, started at No 5 and played through to No.4. We played twilight so there was lot of company and couldn't finish all 18 since we had to return the cart almost an hour before dark, by 7 PM. Course is VERY sloppy, one fairway in particular where the elevation difference between ball and the stance is over one foot. But the course is well kept and would love to play there again soon.

Frustrating Long Round

Tee time was 9:40, got off around 10:15. About 6 foursomes went out just ahead of us, 2 of which played very slow. Passed them about 4 holes in and wasn't terrible from that point on. Course was in good shape, greens were fast and true. Overall it was a good time but about a 5 hour round.

pace of play

It is a fine course, but the pace of play was one of the worst I have ever seen. I did not finish my round. I left after 4 hours with 5 holes remaining. that is what happens, when you are shoving foursomes out every 10 minutes, and no marshall. I will never play here again. Also, this course is way over priced for what it is. There are 6 par 3s.

A walk through history

I love courses that merge history and golf. Each hole has a small part of US History and West Point which is a cool touch. The course is really unique and if you don’t hit it straight you will have a long day. I’ve played a few RTJ tracks and this one is pretty different because it’s on a tight and mountainous track of land. Interesting fact is they used German POWs during WW2 to help build the course. So you start off on the 5th hole as they are redoing the house, which by the way, the new one looks so cool. You check in at the ski lodge right behind the mint, but right now the range is closed which is tough feel after a 90 minute ride. Make sure you get the speed and reads of the greens because today they were fast and there were a few that snapped hard. Holes 8 and 9 are back to back 5s with one being extremely uphill and the other extremely downhill. There’s a par 3 that’s very far downhill and almost blind. All in all I love the routing and there’s very few flat lies to be found. Definitely a frustrating round but will be so much more enjoyable the next time around. Go Army, beat everyone!

A must play in the Hudson Valley

I make a pilgrimage once a year to this hidden gem in the Hudson Valley region. Can feel the history of West Point as you play each unique hole. A Must play!

West Point, a U.S. institution

As soon as you get a glimpse of west point golf course, you know you’re in for a treat the staff by far friendliest in Rockland County.
Steve has a wonderful team . lovely welcome from starter. Now the golf course is in phenomenal shape for all the rain that Rockland county had received with the flooding, would not reflect any at all on the golf course. Wonderful for all skill levels, greens beautiful fairways tee boxes are very nice the breathtaking vistas and views on some of the tees and some of the greens best in New York State.A fair challenge for all skill levels.BUT BEWARE OF FAST GREENS that are in amazing shape. Thank you very much. Supt staff and greenskeeper staff is doing an amazing job. Keep it up and visitors enjoy the all inspiring history lesson on every Teebox to make everybody realize how lucky we are to live in the United States of America. Thanks to all of the fabulous wonderful military professionals coming out of West Point. Thanks again West Point golf course always a pleasure. The golf course played so well on the August 2 that I played again on August 3 and played just as amazing. Thanks again so much. Have a great day all the best. God bless America.

Nuce layout, good condition, pace of play was average. This is probably because of all the Par 3’s.

Not a long course, but hilly with many elevated greens. A few holes have streams crossing fairways. Conditions mostly good despite recent flooding, but bunkers took a big hit and most were unplayable. Friendly staff, will play again
