Ballston Spa Country Club dates to 1925, a period often described as golf architecture's Golden Age, when designers such as Donald Ross and Alister MacKenzie were shaping many of the country's classic layouts.
The course is a parkland design, with greens and fairways characteristic of courses from that era. It plays to a par of 71 for men and 74 for women, offering a test suited to a range of skill levels.
