History

Situated between the Adirondacks and Berkshire mountain ranges, the Eagle Crest Golf Club is truly a spectacular place to play golf. Our 18-hole, par 72, regulation golf course offers you a challenging game of golf whether you are a novice player or a professional.

We offer varied tee positions to match the skill level of all golfers. For the novice player and seniors we suggest the white tee markers, which measure just over 5600 yards. For the avid weekend swinger or intermediate skill level the blue tee markers, measuring over 6400 yards, offers a challenging test. And for the more advanced player we offer the black tee markers, which stretch the golf course to a very demanding 7100 yards. With the growth of women and juniors in the golfing populous, we offer, the very friendly red tee markers measuring a stress free 5100 yards.

Our greens are the great equalizer, as they are quite large, with many undulations. You will also find several two-tiered greens and many putts that will test the skills of the steadiest putters.

As our course continues to undergo cosmetic changes, the playing conditions are rapidly improving along with the challenges of the course. The addition of new sand bunkers as well as the renovation and redesign of existing bunkers have added much to the aesthetic beauty and focal challenge for the weekend warrior.

Our most welcome improvement was initiated in the fall of 2001 and completed in the spring of 2002. The addition of a fully automated irrigation system our fairways, tees and greens will maintain their emerald beauty throughout the oppressive heat of the northeast summers.

Surrounded by hundreds of pine and hardwood trees with mountains to the south and east, the setting of our course is perfect for group outings and tournaments. Located just 15 minutes from Saratoga, 10 minutes from Schenectady and 20 minutes from Albany, our facility is spacious and offers plenty of room for cookouts following your day of golf.To aid in the enjoyment of your round of golf or to perfect your swing mechanics after an instructional session, we offer one of the finest practice facilities in the area. Our all-natural practice range offers accurately measured distance markers as well as a 50’ x 70’ green grass area. Accompanying the “driving range” are two practice putting greens, chipping area and full pitching area, with sand bunker.

If your game is in need of improvement with the guidance and wisdom of a trained eye, our PGA professional is always available for all your instructional needs. Appointments are suggested, but not necessary.
