What’s special: Opened in 2008, this Pete Dye-designed course was created from 172 acres of magnificent cliffs, streams, and wooded hills. Dramatic rock formations and boulders were left onsite and more than 14,000 linear-feet of rock wall surround trees, wetlands, and water hazards. These frame-contoured fairways wind through hardwood forests and fescue mounds leading to open meadows. Pound Ridge plays to a par-72 and measures 7,171 yards. But with five sets of tees, this upscale course —which was named among Golf Digest’s “America’s Best New Courses” in 2009 — is enjoyable for all playing levels. The club features a practice range, short game area, and putting green, perfect for honing your skills.
