Attractions
- Originally owned by five area golfers as a private 9-hole club more than 75 years ago, St. Lawrence was purchased by the state in the mid 1960's. With its long, sweeping hills and pond, the course was designed to incorporate the panoramic view of the St. Lawrence River shipping channel and the Canadian shore. The vista can be seen from the fairways and from the clubhouse veranda. This 9-hole course can be played twice from different tees for an 18-hole round.
