Willowbrook Golf Club Celebrates 79th Season!

Willowbrook Golf Club, located on Route 215 South in Cortland will celebrate its 78th season this summer! The family owned and operated public golf course has been in the Dalgety/Timmerman families since 1932.

In 1932, Bill and Elizabeth Dalgety purchased Willowbrook from the Clark family. Bill was a golf pro from Carnoustie, Scotland. While Bill ran Willowbrook, his brother Jim was the Golf Pro at Colgate’s Seven Oaks Golf Club. In 1966, Willowbrook was sold to Bill’s daughter and son-in-law, Dick and Connie Timmerman.

At this time, Willowbrook was a 9-hole public golf club. In 1990 Willowbrook was expanded to become an 18-hole course. Willowbrook’s scenic layout contains many interesting and sometimes difficult holes. The par 3 5th hole overlooks the creek and the signature willow trees, while the 12th hole, a par 5, goes over the ravine and is lined with trees on both sides of the fairway. Perhaps the most infamous of Willowbrook’s holes is the 450 yard par 4 18th hole. A par on this hole is a great way to finish your round!

In 1999, Willowbrook was sold to Michael and Tammy Timmerman. In their hope to continue the golf legacy created by their grandparents and parents.

So, come help us celebrate our 79th year and play Willowbrook on Route 215 this summer. The Timmerman’s hope to see you soon!
