Cobble Hill Golf Course
Play a historic round with today’s feature: $9 for 9 Holes with Cart at Cobble Hill Golf Course in Elizabethtown near Lake Placid ($28 Value. Good Any Day, Any Time until October 15, 2017!)
Located in the Adirondack hamlet of Elizabethtown, today’s feature, Cobble Hill Golf Course, is the kind of hidden golf gem you can’t find anywhere else but in New York state. Taking full advantage of the countryside’s amazing mountainous layout, and featuring a group of nine holes that will challenge every club in your bag, Cobble Hill’s unique playing experience is sure to be one of the finest you get the chance to explore this golf season.
There’s something about golf courses that were built during the turn of the century that is truly timeless – and Cobble Hill definitely fits into that category. Built in 1896, and owning the districting of being one of the oldest continually operating golf courses in the United States, a round at Cobble Hill is like stepping back in time, and getting the opportunity to experience the game the way it was meant to be played.
Like many courses from that era, Cobble Hill is at the same time exceptionally playable yet deceptively challenging. Fairways and landing areas are fairly wide open throughout the course, but the greens are small and round – making accuracy with your approaches a top priority for those looking to shoot a low score.
Several holes are tightly lined by mature trees, but a majority of the challenge here comes from the lengthy nature of the course (playing over 3,000 yards from the back set of tees) and the well-placed bunkers that often surround greens. Steer clear of these while not allowing yourself be distracted by the incredible views on display at several points throughout the course, and you’ll have a chance at walking away from your round with a score you’ll be proud to share with family and friends.
Traditional golf in a gorgeous Adirondack setting – what else could you want from your next round of golf? Don’t wait – reserve your round now!
