Job description

Summer Intern 2026 Free On-Site Housing, Holiday Bonus

Sleepy Hollow Country Club is a world renowned C.B. MacDonald original design overlooking the Hudson River in Scarborough, New York. The 338 acre property consists of a championship 18-hole Upper Course and a 9-hole Lower Course. The Upper Course is currently ranked 52nd in the United States by Golf Digest, and 70th in the world by Golf Magazine. Hanse Golf Course Design completed a restoration of the Upper Course in 2016 that converted the greens construction to USGA specification while utilizing the original poa sod. The Lower Course consists of modified native soil push-up greens, offering candidates a unique opportunity to manage both sand-constructed USGA greens and hundred year old native soil greens on the same property.

Seasonal interns will be an integral part of a strong agronomic team that strives to provide championship level conditioning on a daily basis for our membership and guests. Interns can expect to be involved in every aspect of the day-to-day operations, with an emphasis placed on plant protectant and fertilizer applications, intensive moisture management techniques, and special projects. Interns will work directly alongside all Assistants, Superintendents, and the Director of Agronomy, and share many of the same responsibilities. Internships are available year-round.
