Scottsdale, Arizona, United States: Troon has announced a relationship with INNESS in Accord, New York.
Situated between the Catskill and Shawangunk mountain ranges in the Hudson Valley, INNESS is set on 220 acres and is home to a hotel, restaurant, member’s club, nine-hole golf course, and other leisure activities.
Renowned architects and builders King Collins Golf, known for their work at Sweetens Cove Golf Club in Tennessee and Landmand Golf Club in Nebraska, designed INNESS’ nine-hole golf course, which opened in 2021.
Every weekend, two flag positions are cut on every green and the golf fee structure offered is nine-hole, 18-hole or ‘All-Day Play’, meaning one can play as many loops as desired, to the two distinct hole locations on each green.
The wide-open, inland links-style course features expansive property and mountain views, and is open to public, member and hotel guest play.
As part of the relationship, Troon will assist INNESS in consultative agronomic and operational support. In addition, Troon will be developing and marketing golf packages, while supporting on golf-related sales and marketing opportunities for the destination.
As part of the agreement, INNESS will be participating in the Troon Advantage programme with curated golf experiences offered for private club members at Troon Privé-managed locations, opening up a new audience of passionate golf travellers to experience INNESS.
“We are truly excited to work with the team at INNESS,” said Kris Strauss, Executive Vice President of Global Sales & Marketing at Troon, an Executive Member of the Asian Golf Industry Federation.
“The property is unique and the golf course is an experience unlike any other, especially with the all-day play concept. Golf course architectural aficionados will appreciate the King Collins-design that is a truly creative design. We look forward to assisting the team at INNESS in accomplishing their goals.”
With just 28 cabins or in the 12-room Farmhouse, guests at INNESS are treated like friends of the family. In 2022, INNESS was included in Condé Nast Traveller’s ‘Hot List’ as one of the most exciting new hotel openings, as well as Travel + Leisure’s ‘It List.’
