Golf In The Bronx
Home to Van Cortlandt Park Golf Course , the first public golf course in the country, the Bronx will soon be home to New York’s newest golf course Ferry Point; a Jack Nicklaus designed championship facility beneath the Bronx-Whitestone Bridge.
Held up by numerous legal battles and other controversies since 2001, work has finally resumed and the parks department officials expect it to open before the end of next year.
Until then the Bronx has plenty to offer at Pelham Golf Course/Split Rock Golf Course, Mosholu Golf Course and Van Cortlandt Park Golf Course.
The Bronx also has plenty to offer in and around the courses.
Located just off Pelham Bay, City Island with its quaint New England feel and dozens of fine seafood restaurants is just a short ride from the Pelham Split Rock clubhouse. The Turtle Cove practice center is also nearby for those looking to warm up before a round.
The Bronx Zoo, the New York Botanical Gardens, Yankee Stadium and even Woodlawn Cemetery final resting place of musical greats Irving Berlin, Duke Ellington and Miles Davis among others, are all easily reached. If that’s not enough to get you to the Bronx, remember there are few - if any, places in world that offer a better collection of Italian restaurants than you’ll find along Arthur Ave.
