Fishkill Golf Course and Driving Range, Fishkill, NY

I've played every public course in Dutchess County and I rate this one as the worst. Great range with putting and chipping greens and a practice bunker. That's about the end of it. The "course" is a grossly overpriced pitch and putt. The layout is dangerous. Take the third hole as an example. This par three parallels the back of the range, with a fairway littered with range balls. This is a great place to get beaned. Why cram 12 holes onto a piece of property marginally big enough to have 9 holes? Temporary tee boxes as hard as concrete. Buggy as hell. They have the audacity to charge $18 to walk a course designed by a pre-schooler. If your golf budget is tight, try Vassar.
