Chris Rein, Golf Course Superintendent
We are thrilled to announce that Chris Rein has joined our team as Golf Course Superintendent. A Syracuse native with a lifelong passion for the game, Chris brings a wealth of elite-level experience and a deep understanding of New York turf management to our course. Chris’s journey in the industry began right here in Central New York, eventually leading him to earn a Bachelor’s degree in Plant Science from SUNY Cobleskill. His resume reads like a “Who’s Who” of iconic golf destinations, highlighted by a prestigious internship at Pebble Beach Golf Links and a tenure as the West Course Assistant Superintendent at Oak Hill Country Club. With a career spanning every facet of course operations—from the pro shop and bag room to the front lines of grounds maintenance—Chris possesses a unique, 360-degree view of the player experience. When he isn’t meticulously dialing in our fairways, Chris is likely still on a golf course—he’s an avid player himself, currently playing to a 14 handicap. A true outdoorsman, he also enjoys hunting and following his favorite sports teams.
Chris resides in Brewerton with his wife, Mary Beth, and their two beloved rescue dogs, Teddy and Bear.
