Fox Run Golf Club

Altamont, NY · 25 mi away

Orchard Creek Golf Club is a public course in Altamont, New York, about 25 minutes outside Albany, built through the hillsides and creek banks of a still-operating apple orchard run by the Abbruzzese family. It opened for play in 1999 and was designed by Paul Cowley. The hilly terrain along the Bozen Kill Creek was left largely intact, producing blind tee shots and dramatic uphill and downhill holes rather than heavily graded fairways. Apple trees line many holes, blooming in spring and offering fruit to golfers in fall, and the course has a reputation for fast, undulating greens. Orchard Creek and the adjoining orchard business were listed for sale in 2026 after nearly 60 years of family ownership, though the course remained open to the public as of that listing.
