Spook Rock has been in great shape. Greens are well kept. Many sand traps and I seemed to have found many. Will play better next time and not go for the sucker pins - live and learn. Overall open course. Wide fairways, so hard to loose balls. Pace of play was reasonable. Course has been full most days.
easily walked as not too much elevation change. Exception is hole 11. A wicked downhill to blind landing area. Watch out for groups in front as you can't see them well, but there is a bell the group in front is supposed to ring, as well as a mirror for seeing (didn't work well for me) players in front of you.
Be cautious here and make sure it's clear before hitting.

I don’t expect much in January around here. Winter golf day. Was cold and greens very hard for the first 9 holes. Things warmed up a little and balks held better.
Overall an easy layout. No water except for a few streams that you need to be aware of. Played shorter than normal due to several tee boxes covered for winter.

Played Spook Rock 10/6 with a newer golfer. Ended up joining a twosome of players who have played there before. Was helpful to have some advice on tee shots and blind second shots. Greens were in excellent shape. Well cared for. Fairways and rough were manageable. Fall ball with the leaves makes finding shots sometimes difficult. Watch out on the 11th hole, a long downhill (blind tee shot) par 5.
There's a mirror on a telephone pole to help you see if it's clear to hit. We were told, by players who were there it was safe. I hit a good drive and was greeted by an unfriendly player ahead. Said I was close to hitting one of them on the fly in the head. I profusely apologized. Was told it was clear. Be sure you check for yourselves before you tee off. The landing areas of good drives are blind from the tee box. I'd play this course again. Was in great shape for a public course and reasonably priced. Could walk this one as well as it's relatively flat with only a few uphill walks.

This course was in excellent overall condition. Not too long, generally flat, with no water carries. If you slice right you could suffer some lost balls. Driver not necessary on all the par 4 holes.
Pace of play was good. No raised cups or noodles in the cups.

Par 70.

Par 70. Lot's of elevation changes and spectacular fall views. The course does need some additional upkeep. Some sand traps very eroded. Tee boxes a uneven. Putting surfaces on most holes is small so hitting the greens in regulation takes practice. Relatively open layout. A few really challenging holes.

Never busy so pace of play is excellent.

Nice layout. Was first time playing this course. Very open on most holes. Greens very small, pitched and not in great condition. Need rolling and cutting.sTee boxes need some weeding and should be leveled. Staff very friendly and professional. Not busy and finished in about 3.5 hours. Would think some course management after a few rounds would improve scores. Important where tee shots are left on a few holes. Also learning the greens would help you score.

Excellent 9 hole track. placement of shots very important as many holes are tight and you are rewarded by managing your approaches. Usually very easy to get out and play. Greens were well manicured and consistent green to green. Some water to deal with and a few fairways had some very damp areas. The par 5 5th is reachable in 3, but the green is sloped away from your approach. Getting it to stop on green is difficult depending upon hole placement.

Only down side is it's on the flight path of Westchester Airport. So you will have a few flights overhead during busy periods. easy enough to get used to a little noise.

Staff is friendly and helpful.

Was a cold and windy morning. We played quickly. No one pushing us or holding us up. Some leaves on a few holes made finding balls sometimes difficult. greens were fast and course conditions excellent for fall golf. Elevation changes and a few doglegs made placing the tee shot critical to scoring well. Will be back. Had been more than a few years since I played this course.
