Does anybody know any good ones, trying to play the area before I hit game fri. Thx!
 
Walden Oaks is decent. It's pretty easy to navigate to, also located just off Route 13.
 
really depends on how simple/easy you want the course to be. how much of a challenge do you want and when do you want to play?

elm tree is pretty easy, if you drive pretty well it has 4-5 driveable par 4's, has some nice elevation changes to make a few shots tricky the first time you play it.

walden oaks is a little more of a challenge. some nice holes, also has some big elevation changes. not as many driveable holes

there is also willow brook which is probably a slight step down from the other 2.

elm tree gets a decent amount of play but you might want to look into tee times at both places being on a friday. The courses around Ithaca have been empty the last week which is too bad considering the weather has been so good.

the course I play on is Willowbrook Golf Course its pretty easy. 3 par 5's,not a ton of water hazards,not terrible long from whites its around 6000 yards . 1st hole is a 300 yard driveable par 4 . The last hole is the hardest on the course 440 yard dogleg right par 4 with treelined right said of hole. its pretty cheap $25 for 18 and a cart and you will be able to get the round in much quicker than elmtree
 
I don't like elmtree myself maybe its because I cant make any putts on the greens

eltree is a must for tee times weekdays or weekends
 
Vesper Hills Golf Coarse. It's in the Tully area
Macadooo - went with vesper hills, really pretty! It was so windy though it felt like I was playing in Ireland. back nine has some real pretty holes, the loft is a nice spot too for beers afterwards! Thx for the recommendation.
