One of several classic Ross designs near Pinehurst, Mid Pines is a historic gem full of strategy and excellent individual holes. While I prefer Pine Needles, many consider Mid Pines the second best course in the area and it is certainly well-worth a play. … More Review: Mid Pines Inn & Golf Club
One of the very best public options in Scottsdale, We-Ko-Pa’s Saguaro Course is an excellent Coore/Crenshaw design featuring great variety, strong conditioning, and a beautiful unadulterated setting. I highly recommend this course to all visiting the area. … More Review: We-Ko-Pa Golf Club (Saguaro Course)
The oldest public course in New Jersey, the short but classic Weequahic is one of several quality offerings from the Essex County municipal system. It isn’t the best of the group, but is worth a play and offers good value for the area. … More Review: Weequahic Golf Course
While not quite the “Eighth wonder of the golf world” as Rees Jones likes to say, Cascata is a great public course just outside Las Vegas featuring a memorable layout, tremendous visuals, and a very upscale experience overall. It isn’t cheap but it’s cheaper than Shadow Creek and should be strongly considered by all those planning to golf in Vegas. … More Review: Cascata Golf Club
One of the only public options in the Hamptons, the 9-hole Poxabogue is a local favorite but underwhelms with poor conditioning and a short, cramped layout. I’d recommend this course only to novices or higher handicappers. … More Review: Poxabogue Golf Center
Offering a nice contrast to the Old Course at Scranton, the Falls Course is a tight, modern design that features good conditions and a fun 9-holes. The membership is lucky to have an option like this and it is worth a play for guests who are already playing the Old Course. … More Review: The Country Club of Scranton (Falls Course)
The upscale Great River Golf Club offers strong amenities and conditions and is one of Connecticut’s better public options. It is worth a play, but is somewhat limited by a narrow property and routing that features almost all holes running North or South. … More Review: Great River Golf Club
Offering incredible views, tremendous variety, and a great deal of fun, Cabot Cliffs is one of the best courses in the world and one of Coore and Crenshaw’s best works. It is difficult to get to, but absolutely a must play for serious golfers. … More Review: Cabot Cliffs
Marine Park is clearly one of the best municipal courses in the NYC system with strong conditions, good value, and a linksy, seaside location, but is hurt by a flat terrain and somewhat repetitive layout. It is worth a play if in the area. … More Review: Marine Park Golf Course
Offering a strong challenge on a hilly property, great value, and classic template architecture from Charles Banks, Francis Byrne is one of the more underrated public courses in the greater New York City area and is certainly worth a visit. … More Review: Francis A. Byrne Golf Course
