Franklin

Franklin runs quiet along Route 357 but packs a punch with farmstead shops, a historic Main Street, and cozy B&Bs. Rolling hills and a calendar heavy on antique fairs attract regulars seeking a slower Catskills pace.

Franklin

Dawn breaks over the Ouleout hills and dew works into the fairways. Birds call, old oaks stand along sloping doglegs, and the round has a mountain tempo all its own.

What to Expect:

    🎯 Hilly layout with dramatic elevation—expect tough climbs and sidehill lies
    🌳 Wide open fairways at times, but narrow corridors and doglegs keep things interesting
    ⛳ Greens are usually soft, generally roll slow but true
    🧃 Basic clubhouse with hot breakfast, sandwiches, and cold drinks
    👟 Not well suited to walking—carts recommended for all but the fittest

Important Information:

    ✔ Public, walk-ins welcomed—preferred to call ahead for tee times during weekend mornings
    ✔ Wheelchair accessible parking and entry; restrooms are ground-level
    ✔ 18-hole and 9-hole options, carts required for 18-hole play by most
    ✔ Phone: (607) 829-2100 | No online tee booking
