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.

Nice course
The course itself is in very nice shape. The speed of play was terrible. There were 4 foursomes ahead of us that we’re stacked on top of each other and all were playing very slow. We finally had enough and called the clubhouse to get the ranger on the course to get everyone moving.
Thank you so much for leaving us with your feedback. We value our customer experience, so your review is important to us. We will make note and we hope to see you back!

Staff are rude
Grounds keepers have no regard for person or property. They drenched my equipment and ruined things in my cart after turning the sprinklers on directly on my cart. I will never come back to this course again and dissuade anyone from doing the same. I left after 9 holes because i was so disgusted by the staff and the manner in which they conduct business.
Thank you so much for your review! We apologize for the experience you had with us. We’ve been in contact with you since your round and we’re very happy we were able to come to a resolution with you. Thank you again for your review and we look forward to having you back again soon!
As a follow up to the above comment, I received a very nice and professional phone call from the course manager today. He took the time to talk to me and listen and there was understanding on both parts. Because of him and the helpful pro shop employees, I will give it another shot. After all, it’s a beautiful and challenging course.
Excellent! We are so pleased that you enjoyed your time at Wind Watch Golf & Country Club. We look forward to seeing you at the course soon for another 5-star experience!
Range finder was never recovered
Forgot my range finder on the cart and was told it was never turned in. It was the end of the day when I returned the cart and I left a message later that evening, called the next day.. no luck.
Thank you for your review! We apologize that your range finder was lost. We assure you that we did our absolute best to locate your range finder. Thank you for your review and we hope to have you back in the future.
Diamond in the rough
Came out from Nassau County and didn’t want to drive to far. Course can not be seen from the road. Pulled into a hotel parking lot that was attached. Went around the check in at the club house and the course looked like a secret garden. I was psyched when I pulled up. The landscape and quality of the course exceeded by expeditions. Cart woman was very nice and came around multiple time. Staff at the check is was also very helpful. Price was up there with the single cart, but you get what you pay for. Round took 4.5 hours and That’s with me playing like garbage. Water stole a lot of my balls this. First round experience was great. I will definitely come back.
Great! Thank you for visiting us at Wind Watch Golf & Country Club. We're so glad that you enjoyed your first experience with us and we appreciate your 4-star rating and review. We hope you join us for another round soon.

Golf at Windwatch
We like this course because we live around the corner and it is really nice and challenging. It is a bit pricy so we tend to look for deals on Golf Now. Overall we always tell people to play here.
Wonderful! Thank you so much for the great review. We are glad you had an incredible time, and we hope to see you again soon! Thanks for choosing Wind Watch Golf & Country Club.

Felt like playing on Tour
The design and layout was surprisingly challenging, but it was so well maintained. Only if all courses were taken care of, the same way. Electric carts with smooth paths was top notch. The food cart stopped by many times, that also was top notch. The day was 75 degrees and sunny. I couldn't ask for the perfect course and weather. Unfortunately, I played horrible. No idea why, but I felt like a complete amateur. Next time Wind Watch....next time.
Vortexo, thank you for your kind words and are pleased to hear that you enjoyed your round with us! We hope to see you again at the course very soon for another 5-star experience. Thanks for choosing Wind Watch Golf & Country Club.
Solid Intermediate Course
A solid 18 hole Golf Course that is well maintained and player friendly. Each hole on the course is fairly open rather then narrow, with the exception of some water in your way on occasion. The course is a bit of a Maze and you have to drive around a bunch but keep following the signs and you cant go wrong. Overall Wind Watch was a fun competitive day of Golf.

Lovely Course
Nice fast greens,roll true. Traps could be better but I’ll attribute that to Covid 19

Always in good shape but wayy overpriced!
The course is well maintained and usually a 4 hour round. Of all the times I’ve played here the staff always seemed stressed or rushed to get you out of the pro shop. The pricing is absolutely rediculous! Nobody should have to pay 80 bucks to play golf at 430 in the afternoon. Ive watched the pricing ever year go up more and more. It’s ashame, i enjoy the course but the price for play is not worth it. We have 12-16 guys who play weekly and due to the price of golf here this course will never be an option for us. It’s ashame
Thank you for your review! We're glad that you enjoyed our course, but we apologize that you didn't enjoy your experience with us. We appreciate your feedback and we will use your review to improve moving forward. Thank you again and we hope you'll give us another try in the future!
