Saratoga Golf - Great Courses Wait for You Three out of Four Seasons
Think golfing in Saratoga is just for late spring
through mid-summer? Think again – for you can enjoy Saratoga golf
courses nine out of 12 months every year.
Imagine taking your plus fours and the four iron out from their winter
storage and hitting the links as early as March. You can on the dozens
of Saratoga golf courses available to you here in gorgeous upstate New
York. The daffodils will greet you as you head to the fairways that are
lush from spring rains. Or, if you wait just a few weeks, many trees
will be in full bloom and the scent of lilacs will fill the air as you
make that putt..
And then...summer! Teeing off on a cool June morning on one of the
more
than 50 public Saratoga golf courses. The days seem to last forever in
the summer – perhaps you could get another 18 holes in before heading to
dinner at the clubhouse and then watching the fireflies as you relax on
the club’s deck with a cocktail or two.
You could easily bring the family for a lovely July vacation. Golf in
the early morning, followed by a swim with the kids in one of the area’s
several lakes like
Saratoga Lake later that afternoon – or perhaps just the two of you will
hit the antique shops or indulge in a massage and facial at one of our
town’s many spas. And then you can top off your day with a fireworks
display at the Saratoga County Fair. (Don’t forget the corn dogs and
cotton candy.)
You’ll want an early tee time on the fairways in August to avoid the
heat of mid-summer day -- but that just means you’ll be ready for the
first post of the day to watch the thoroughbreds run at the at the
world-famous Saratoga Race Course.
The sultry days of August then give way to the cool-and-getting-crisper
days of September. Walk our fairways and you’ll be dazzled by the rich
golds, reds and oranges of the trees. Come on by in October and November
for some great Saratoga golf outings in the brisk autumn air. Our links
are less crowded then, and our fairways are no less fantastic.
All good seasons must come to an end, and the nine-month Saratoga golf
season is no exception once Thanksgiving comes around. But take heart –
March and early-spring Saratoga golf is just three months away!
