Turning Stone Resort’s Golf Courses Ranked
Among Top 10 Courses in New York State for 2015 by Golfweek
|

These honors come on the heels of numerous other golf awards for the resort’s pro-level courses. Just weeks ago, Golf Digest listed both Atunyote and Kaluhyat among America’s 100 Greatest Public Courses for the third consecutive year. In late 2014, these two courses, as well as Turning Stone’s Shenendoah course, were each hailed among Golfweek’s Best Casino Courses for 2015, while 2015 AGM Platinum Awards were granted to Turning Stone’s Golf SuperStore and the Shenendoah Golf Club.

“All of us at Turning Stone are honored to be listed among Golfweek’s top courses to play in New York for 2015,” said Oneida Nation Representative and Oneida Nation Enterprises CEO Ray Halbritter. “With our premier golf courses, and wide range of world-class entertainment and amenities, Turning Stone aims to provide our visitors with only the most superior services and experiences.”

Turning Stone’s scenic golf courses have hosted numerous professional events including the PGA Tour, the PGA Professional National Championship, the B.C. Open and the Turning Stone Resort Championship. The resort has also attracted some of the sport’s biggest names, including Tiger Woods, Dustin Johnson and Rickie Fowler.

Turning Stone’s amenities extend far beyond golf. The sprawling, 3,400 acre resort features celebrated hotels and restaurants, vast entertainment options, an entertainment complex called Exit 33, and a luxury retail outlet which will be opening in 2016. Turning Stone welcomes more than 4.5 million guests a year and is the only resort in New York State to hold three AAA Four Diamond venues at one property.
