Spook Rock Golf Course

About Spook Rock Golf Course

Laid out over gently rolling hills at the foot of the Ramapo Mountains, Spook Rock Golf Course is an award winning daily fee layout that will challenge all levels of golfers. Playing just a little more than 6,800 yards from the back tees, this Francis Duane design that opened in 1970 has water features on seven holes, 50-plus bunkers both in the fairways and on the greens, and sloping greens that can at times be a challenge to read and putt. The heavily tree-lined course, which got its name from American Indian lore, is situated on the former site of Kane's Open, which was the first Boy Scout camp in the United States. The no. 1 handicap hole is the 538-yard, par-5 sixth, a dogleg left with a pond in front of the green. The finishing stretch is solid, too, and includes the 185-yard par 3 17th. Trees easily come into play on this hole, so it helps if golfers can shape the ball off the tee. Besides the golf course, Spook Rock also has a driving range, chipping green with practice bunker, and practice putting green. The driving range is also lighted for nighttime play, and there are demo clubs available for guests who don't have their own. The facility also has a well-stocked golf shop with the latest in apparel and accessories. And the Chalet at Spook Rock offers banquet services as well as a top-notch food and beverage operation.?
