History

The Edison Club was laid out in 1926 by the legendary Devereux Emmet, whose other creations included Congressional Country Club, host to three U.S. Opens and a PGA Championship.

Nestled on the rolling hills above the bluffs of the Mohawk River, these 27 holes of championship golf provide a solid test for all skill levels. It’s a pretty park-like setting, with many of the holes lined by thick stands of trees, but players find plenty of challenges to focus their attentions. With its risk/reward doglegged par-fours, sometimes reachable par-fives and formidable par-threes, this is a golf course you simply don’t tire of playing.

In addition, the club offers a practice range, and a large practice green with bunker.

If you love golf, you’ll love The Edison Club.

Karsten Solheim did. For three months in 1958, while working on a project at GE, he played The Edison Club. He was also working at that time on his "hollow back" putter design, which would eventually become the Ping putter.
