About

Holes 18
Type Resort/Semi-Private
Par 72
Length 6686 yards
Slope 136
Rating 72.4

Although it is located in Hauppauge on Long Island's North Shore, Wind Watch Golf Club possesses the look and feel of a destination course. Sprawling across a lush, rolling landscape covered with sparkling ponds, the course is as challenging as it is scenic. Water hazards come into play on 12 holes and there are more than 75 bunkers, some of which are massive in size, strategically placed throughout. Almost every hole presents golfers with a unique risk-reward opportunity. The golf course begins and ends at its highest point, which is one of the island's highest elevations. Wind Watch's closing hole provides a memorable finish as the only dogleg on the course. This par 4 takes a sharp left before climbing uphill to the triple-tiered green that is protected by three enormous traps.

A day of floods

Played the course for the first time on a day of scattered but heavy thunderstorms. First round passed quickly with little water damage, but the second round was longer and heavier and saturated the course, complete with puddles, making it virtually unplayable. Carts were understandably switched by the course GPS system to Cart Path Only. the cart began to beep and became inoperable going forward until the cart path was reached. Getting there in reverse from the woods, where we sheltered during the rain was an adventure. We will return to play the course under better conditions.

Get what you paid for

Overall nice course. Green is fast and pristine. Friendly staff. Has range and putting green. As a walker will always prefer to walk but ride only. Did upgrade carts recently. Tight holes and water force carries. Long 225 yds par 3 in back nine. Recommend it.

Similar to past experiences

Great layout…except the 18th hole…9th green needs to be adjusted. The day we played the greens speed / hole locations made some of the putts laughable. Someone upset the groundskeeper lol

Windwatch - Florida feel on LI

Such a great course! Very well-maintained. The staff is very pleasant. We play here 2-3x a year. We love it! The 10th tee is one of my favorite tee boxes on all of Long Island. Gorgeous. And the houses on the course give it that Florida feel.
