About Dinsmore Golf Course
Dinsmore goes back to the 1890s, when it was built as a private nine-hole course for the Dinsmore, Hoyt and Mills estates along the Hudson. Wikipedia credits Robert Huntington with laying it out. That original nine is now the south nine; it was expanded to 18 holes in 1962. It's one of the oldest courses in the country, though sources disagree on the exact order.
Today it's a public course inside Ogden Mills & Ruth Livingston Mills State Park in Staatsburg. It's short, par 70 and 5,719 yards, and there isn't a water hazard on the property. What you get instead is the setting: views across the Hudson to the Catskills. Bring your irons and enjoy the walk through old estate ground.
It's one of 42 courses Yoink watches in the Hudson Valley area, and the closest alternative is McCann Memorial Golf Course, about 10 miles away — handy when your first choice is booked solid.
