Inlet Golf Club

Few golf experiences in New York State match the setting you find at Inlet. Sitting in the heart of the Adirondacks along the shores of Fourth Lake, this is mountain golf in its most genuine form — a layout shaped by terrain that doesn't apologize for its contours, elevation changes, or the trees pressing in from every side. The Adirondack Park surrounding the course is one of the largest protected natural areas in the lower 48, and that wilderness context is something you feel on every hole.

Inlet itself is a small, unhurried town at the western end of the Fulton Chain of Lakes, a region that draws visitors for fishing, paddling, and hiking as much as golf. The course fits that ethos — this is not a place designed to impress with length or flash, and a par 70 layout encourages shot-making and local knowledge over raw power.

For golfers making the drive into this corner of the Adirondacks, the round almost always becomes secondary to the experience of simply being here.
