These aren’t the traditional “top-100” golf courses in America, or the ultra-private golf clubs you can’t get onto. These are the hidden gems; they’re accessible to the public, they cost less than $50, but they’re unique, beautiful and fun to play in their own right. We’re treating this as a bucket list of golf courses to play across the country, and the world. If you have a personal favorite hidden gem, submit it here!
Toronto and Buffalo ski bums turn into golf bums in the warm weather. On the way to the southern-tier ski country, which doubles as golf country in the summer, travelers along route 219 pass signs for Concord Crest golf course, just north of Springville, NY.
Those who stop by are never disappointed, as the homespun golf course offers undulating fairways and worthwhile greens. Just shy of 20 years old, Concord Crest tops out at $31 for golf and cart, 7 days a week. The course offers a 3-hole practice facility for beginning golfers, and never comes up short on hospitality.
