MANSION RIDGE GOLF CLUB

The rolling Hudson Valley terrain serves up dramatic elevation changes that transform what could have been another suburban public track into something memorably challenging. Architect Jack Nicklaus carved routing through dense hardwood forests, creating isolated playing corridors where errant shots disappear into the wilderness—no friendly kicks here. The signature par-3 17th plunges 150 feet downhill to a well-bunkered green, offering the kind of breathtaking vista that makes you forget you're just an hour from Manhattan.
