Kiskiack Golf Club
Set along the ridge of a natural bluff, Kiskiack offers a day of golf for players of all levels. As our award winning architect John LaFoy said “after playing Kiskiack, 18 golfers may each have a different favorite hole.” Many of the picturesque holes demand accurate shot making from tee to green, while others are more forgiving – with ample landing areas and gentle sloping greens.

We’d definitely recommend the camp

Learned so much!
"Talia learned many valuable Tips from the experienced college kids that instructed them daily. I noticed some of the advice were things we had attempted to have her change, but the power of a college student that they can relate to, caused her to ACTUALLY try the new techniques. Many new friends and golf buddies were made. The fact that from the very first day, to the last day they spent hours on the course working on their game made me feel that it was money well spent for the camp."

No feedback
"We have received absolutely no feedback from the coaches regarding any elements of the camp. I have no idea how my son did, what he learned, what he needs to work on. For the high price we expected a lot more than a Tribe hat in the end."
