About
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.

Poor Management Customer Relations - conf # 352097893
I used GolfNow on a Friday for a Saturday tee time. I know for sure I selected the Saturday.
Saturday my friend and I show up for our tee time and the pro shop stated I did not have one. I assured them I did. Further investigation they discovered it was booked for the previous day. I was puzzled cause I knew I booked for Saturday. I asked when’s next tee time. They said an hour and 20 mins. I said great can you put me in that time slot. They said yes but I’d have to pay. I said you already have two tee times I paid for. They said they lost that time slot they could have booked and I have to pay for new tee time and call GolfNow to get a refund. I said can’t you at least give me credit for a future tee time if I book the new one and they said No. I called GolfNow who in turn called the management of Windwatch who refused to authorize the refund. I understand Windwatch situation but was so taken back about their non flexibility to accommodate the golfer. I later found out Windwatch is owned by ClubCorp the largest operator of private golf and country clubs.
In reviewing in my mind when I was checking out in GolfNow I entered an incorrect cvv and had to redo. At that point GolfNow app must have defaulted back to current date, being Friday. GolfNow needs to check its software and ClubCorp needs to be more accommodating to its patrons.

A great track
I love playing this course…it has some really scenic holes that can be quite challenging. Played it today 8/31/21 and it was really damp in the fairways, My drives or second shots plugged at least 20 times. Typically would definitely recommend this course.

Worst Value on LI
For $115 there is no staff to assist, no GPS and the course is just OK. The conditions are good but the layout is stupid. It’s also beyond slow and there are no Rangers to push pace of play. This round took well over 5 hours. Just insane. I’m done with course. Never again.

Slowwwwww
Pace of play was terrible. Didn’t even play the 18th, 2 groups on the tee ahead of me. Ever think about a ranger? Played the first 9 in 2 hours then it can to a stand still.
Ball marks all over the greens.
Worst round I have played in a long time
