New York Country Club

First time playing this course nice layout fair but challenging

Challenging course for any golfers.

Nice course. Fairly expensive ($90/person).Fairways and green conditions not very good.

I play a lot of golf at a lot of great courses around the country. I've seen New York Country Club come up on searches and finally decided to play it. It's typically over $100 to play so I expected a great round of golf. I booked last minute and paid $80. I was surprised by the condition of the course. Crab grass on the tee boxes and fairways as well as greens that were in fairly poor condition for the price. I understand it's been hot and we haven't had a lot of rain but it was in worse condition than just about all of the county courses in Morris and Bergen County, NJ. The layout is decent but I wouldn't return for that kind of money. I'll spend it happily at Mansion Ridge or other courses in the area that are in far better shape. I wish they had their act together because it's a nice piece of property.

Course had a good layout, but is only in decent shape. Greens where the roughest part - fairways were better. A little expensive for what you're playing but still worth it.

The course itself was a nice layout, but the greens were very slow. Not what I was expecting from them. Once they get the greens in good shape I'll be back.

Course is great along with the staff.

Pros: Course in good shape, variety of hole design, greens very undulating providing a good challenge. Close proximity to Manhattan.

Cons: Four holes have severe elevation and are a bit of a joke. Some greens and quality of some bunkers could be in better shape. No walking option. A bit expensive, function of proximity to Manhattan

Went out on Thursday and was basically the only one on the course , pace of play was as fast or slow as I wanted . Course itself was in fine condition , fairways neatly trimmed and the rough was not to bad , very playable . Greens rolled nice , with a few tricky reads along the way . Sand traps were soft and well groomed . Holes 9 and 17 , severe uphill elevations , didn't care for those . Shot a decent 84 .

The greens were beat up. They were very bumpy and patchy. Where u play a golf course the most important thing is that the greens are well-kept . I played the course when I was in better condition than this time I was very disappointed. This is one of my favorite courses. Its not a good feeling when you hit a putt and its jumping and bouncing all over the place

I wanted to love this course...really i did. The clubhouse looked great, and the staff was friendly in greeting us. My first disappointment came at the range actually. For a "country club", i expected more from the range. We weren't able to use drivers, but what was worse was the quality of the balls. about 10% of the balls in my bucket were cracked! Here is the awesome thing about this course: the layout. It was challenging, but fair. Course forces you to think about ball placements and settling for appropriate lay-ups. Certain holes have crazy elevations, which made it really interesting. The disappointment was the quality of the course, particularly with the greens. I read some bad reviews about the greens, but i thought, " Its a CC, how bad can it be?" I hate to say this but some of greens i ran into were comparable to a typical NYC municipal course. They were small, inconsistent, patchy, and full of mall marks. I would like to return in the future though. Maybe not in the near future, but I think with some TLC, this place could be amazing. Until then...charging $80-$105 for green fees won't entice anyone.

Always love this course as it's very scenic and challenging! Greens have a little fungus - the first green is bad - but other than that it's in great shape! In the summer this course dries out easily so I would recommend playing soon after it rains and not during a long summer drought as fairways and greens feel like concrete.

Course is fair to play, rough is too tough though.

Great course they filled in some bunkers since the last time I played so my score was a little lower. The pace of play was perfect throughout the whole round now that they have active rangers out there pushing groups along. Keep up the good work guys. Greens keepers doing a really great job. I'll be back soon

I found this course to be a lot of fun and if you can accept the greens are in pretty lousy condition, it's really a gem.

Thought I would try a different course. Not a good experience from the start. Tried rushing us to the course instead of hitting at the range. Annoyed when we asked if the golf cart had towels. Received one that had seen better days. Pace of play, extremely poor with no ranger to assist. Course maintenance workers blew debris into the card, while we were sitting in it. No amount of shouting could stop the person. Asked for manager, none on property. Spoke to someone in authority about complaints, took my number, never called to check out concerns.

I really like the course but usually leave disappointed in the condition of the greens as they have not been great for a few years. They have removed several bunkers over the years, and don't do a good job maintaining the ones they still have as they are mostly hard pack and rocks. Very pricey on the weekends, but weekday afternoons are a good price and usually not busy. Pace of play can be hit or miss. If you get behind a foursome of the regular players here it is usually slow. The range is irons only and they have a small chipping and putting area.

over priced and the greens were terrible. not worth the money.

Course great set up need to be back there after airation

Great value , good day considering date
Easy no hassle access onto course
Challenging but all 4 enjoyed afternoon
Got round in before darkness
Coming back in a week
