Northern New York offers one of the world’s most incredible settings for golf, and today’s feature course, The Elms Golf Club in Sandy Creek, is certainly one of that area’s best. Beautifully laid out in one of the most serene and relaxing atmospheres you’ll find anywhere, the majestic links and incredible views at The Elms will keep you coming back round after round.
Located just minutes from Watertown and a short drive from Syracuse, The Elms’ inspired design combines all of the classic aspects of great American golf into one invigorating 18. Playing just over 6,000 yards from the back set of tees, the Frank Pizzuto-designed layout sports mature tree-lined fairways, well-protected putting surfaces, and unique hole layouts that are sure to challenge every club in your bag. The greens truly stand out at The Elms, as their classic round shape and small stature, combined with significant changes in undulation, provide a true challenge to even the most experienced flat stick.
Though you may think approaching The Elms with your driver swinging free is the best course of action to shoot a low score – think again. Locals and regulars agree: a measured, accurate, and in-control approach is the only way to master this deceptively difficult course. Balance your shotmaking with proper course management, and you may just walk away from The Elms with a score you’ll be proud to brag about.
Not only is The Elms’ 68.0/110-rated course a great place to test your game, it’s also provides one of the area’s premier places to upgrade your bag! Fully stocked with the latest equipment, apparel, accessories, and Elms merchandise, the clubhouse pro shop offers one of the best selections you’ll find in Northern New York.
