Mark Twain State Park and S.E. Golf Cour |
Named for the great 19th-century author who spent summers in the area, Mark Twain State Park is the home of one of the most scenic and challenging 18-hole courses in the area. The course has a unique 18-hole design with only two parallel holes. The excellent conditions for this course were created thousands of years ago by a retreating glacier which laid down hundreds of feet of sand, gravel and silt. Buried ice blocks slowly melted, leaving water-filled depressions or "kettle ponds" on the course.
Route 17 to Route 14 exit (Watkins Glen), go 2 miles, turn right at Route 14 in Wygant Rd., go 1 mile, turn left onto Ridge Rd., go 1 block and turn left onto Middle Rd.
