7 Quick Fall Golf Trips Every Golfer Should Plan Now

If you’re already dreaming about cooler temps, golden fairways, and fewer crowds—fall golf season is calling.

Now’s the perfect time to lock in a weekend getaway while prices and tee times are still wide open.

Whether you’re chasing bucket-list courses or just want to sneak in 36 with your buddies,

here are 7 golf destinations that are ideal for a short fall trip:

1. Pinehurst, North Carolina

The fall weather is ideal and the vibe is legendary. Pinehurst No. 2 gets all the hype, but don’t sleep on No. 4 and The Cradle.

2. Scottsdale, Arizona

By October, the desert cools down. Troon North, Grayhawk, and TPC Scottsdale offer top-tier golf without the summer scorch.

3. French Lick, Indiana

Affordable and underrated. With Donald Ross and Pete Dye designs, fall foliage makes it feel like you’re golfing inside a postcard.

4. Kohler, Wisconsin

Whistling Straits and Blackwolf Run shine in the fall. Bring a sweater, your A-game, and maybe a camera.

5. Streamsong, Florida

Not your typical Florida course. Red, Blue, and Black are pure golf experiences—less sweat and fewer bugs in the fall.

6. Big Cedar Lodge, Missouri

Fall in the Ozarks is pure magic. Courses by Nicklaus, Fazio, and Tiger make this a must-hit destination.

7. Bandon Dunes, Oregon

Yes, the weather is unpredictable—but the golf is unforgettable. Fall means fewer crowds and peak course conditions.

Bonus Tips:

Book 6–8 weeks ahead for the best fall tee times and rates.
Look for “stay and play” packages, they’re often deeply discounted in shoulder seasons.
Traveling with buddies? Many of these spots have multi-course resorts and cabins for groups.
