Craig Wood Golf & Country Club carries a name that matters in American golf history. Craig Wood was a Lake Placid native who won both the Masters and U.S. Open in 1941, making him one of the sport's more compelling figures — a man who lost multiple major championships in playoffs before finally breaking through. That the town's private club bears his name is a fitting tribute to a golfer who defined resilience.
Lake Placid itself is one of the more extraordinary settings in the American Northeast. Twice an Olympic host city, it sits deep in the Adirondack Mountains at roughly 1,800 feet of elevation, surrounded by forest, lakes, and a landscape that shifts dramatically through the seasons. Golf here means playing through genuine mountain terrain — elevation changes, cooling summer temperatures, and the kind of scenery that makes it easy to lose focus on your scorecard.
As a private members' club, Craig Wood offers that unhurried, community-rooted experience that defines the best regional golf. For those fortunate enough to have access, it represents the local tradition of a town that has always punched well above its size.
