Never Again

I normally don't write reviews for anything, but I felt the need to do so this time. My round at NYCC was the WORST golf experience for me in the past 10 years. My playing partner and I walked off after 12 holes, even though we had (over)paid a decent amount to play. The front 9 took over 2 hours and 40 minutes, and there wasn't a ranger in site all day to speed up the pace of play. The starters let 2-somes out in between 4-somes as well. The only reason to play this course is to see Hole #9, which has to be one of the top-5 most comical holes in all of golf. Seriously, if you've never played that hole, you need to see it. It's a joke of biblical proportions. Needless to say, I won't be returning to NYCC.

Do not play here right now

The course is in terrible shape. Tee boxes are beat up, greens are bumpy and discolored with several dead areas. The ranger kindly told us that and that to compensate players they are providing a free beer and hot dog after the round; however, they still made us pay the $120 greens fee because we teed off before 10am. The policy does not make sense because the course conditions were independent of when we teed off. The staff said there was "nothing he could do" even though we said we'd never play there again.

I would recommend calling the course in advance to determine the conditions before overpaying for your round. It is unfortunate because it is a fun track if the course was well maintained.

Working there way back to the top

I've been playing this course since last year, in the beginning of the season the greens defiantly took a hit from what i saw, so i took some time off from the course. I came back recently and finally the greens are coming back to life. I played last Saturday and my pace of play like always was great for a 4 some, 4 hrs and 15 mins. On top of it there staff is always the most welcoming and outgoing compared to other courses I've played, and i'd like to mention that the bartenders and beverage cart girls are all models! I would defiantly recommend to anyone who enjoys the game of golf to go there for a good experience.

Course is over-rated

For how much they advertise and charge during regular time, I wouldn't step foot here. The overall layout of the course was great, except once you get to the greens, they are all chewed up with ball marks and dead spots making putting more of a challenge. Secondly there is no sand in the bunkers whatsoever. How this course charges $80-100+ is beyond me. Luckily I only paid $40.

Playing with a vendor

The up and down feature going away and towards the club house was interesting. The par 5's were long and challenging. Many of the par 4 holes looked and played like other par 4 holes already played. The overall condition was good with some room for improvement on the greens. The rate was a little too pricy.

Great Layout; Poor Condition

The only thing giving this course 2 stars instead of 1 is the fact that layout was fantastic. However, the course was in terrible condition. The greens were in brutal shape, dead patches and choppiness through out. The clear reason why was that it appeared no one repaired their ball marks on this course. It made for a terrible putting experience as balls hopped, skipped and jumped all over the place. It also made for wildly inconsistent green speeds, which also made putting quite difficult. The fairways were only slight better, being pretty chewed up in parts with unrepaired divot marks and dead patches. Finally, the bunkers were not what one would expect from a course like this. Very coarse, heavy sand and lots of pebbles and rocks. For a club billing themselves as an upscale country club for the public, the conditions were overall, very disappointing.

That said, it was a great, fun layout, winding in and out of a valley. The 1st, 9th, 10th and 18th holes were all quite memorable, playing down, up down and up the hill on which the clubhouse sits. The 13th hole also sticks out in my mind as a great hole. The NYC skyline view from the 10th tee and clubhouse patio is phenomenal.

However, despite the great layout, this is not a track I would recommend nor play again given the poor conditions. And the fact that this course has the gall to charge over $100 on the weekends for a course in this condition is borderline offensive. I'm glad I only paid $55 on GolfNow, a discount off their usual weekday twilight rate of $70.

course not up to the hype on commercials...

After hearing on the radio of the course, i decided to look up the course and book with my dad for my 40th bday. Started out decent, but when i got to the green, there were patches of dirt everywhere. I later asked some of the cart guys what the deal was, and they said it was some fungus destroying some of the greens. That didnt sound good. Its a shame cause it looked decent. But they were doing some construction work on the course, and i almost hit one of the workers who was working on the bunkers. Not the greatest experience. The only pleasant part of the course was the bartender katie. But no cart person selling drinks on the course... just didnt seem like a country club. Sad to say but rivervale was a whole lot better, and closer. And even patriot hills... and those courses were cheaper than nu country club. These guys better get their act together and fix this course quick or they will go bankrupt quickly....

It is a good course to play on a weekday!

I like this course as it is an easy drive from NYC. I usually play on a weekday a few times in a year and avoid the weekend busy and slow play. For this round, the course conditions were fine except for a few greens which were really in bad shape. The facilities are always top notch and I would recommend this course for everyone.

Needs attention.

Greens in Poor shape. Bunkers have lots of big ROCKS. Rough uneven.

Layout is choppy and doesn't flow well. The Free Drop Rule and the "NO out of bounds" helps with pace of play, but is that really golf? The design shortages and blind spots and shots need to be addressed.

My son and I were disappointed to say the least especially with the course conditions.

staff makes the course

nice layout with very challenging undulating greens.
the staff from top to bottom were efficient, courteous, and seemed to appreciate my business.
I would go back for that reason alone.

LOVE NYCC

I have played this course numerous times over the summer. We usually always play on the Tuesday/ Wednesday special promotion for 60 dollars all day. The reason I like to play at NYCC, is because the course conditions are always groomed and the pace of play is excellent. The staff members such as people behind pro-shop, rangers, and cart attendants are always willing to help out the customers and make us golfers have a great time.

No longer high end.

This course and others advertise as country clubs for a day eg. Ballyowen. But I would say this course does not qualify. Sand traps were without sand, the greens were not in good condition, the course maintenance is just is not doing the job. Aside from that the course has an interesting design, elevation changes on the front, flater on the back with the exception of 10 and 18. Would not play if not a GolfNow hot deal.

Fair & Challenging Course

Played the course thanks to a great deal through GolfNow. Played as a single on a weekday (11AM) and was surprised that I never caught up to the group ahead of me.

The course has some hilly (holes 1,9,10,18) so be sure to take two extra clubs for the uphill holes (#9 & #18). Greens and fairways were in very good shape, and there was plenty of water on hand to keep you hydrated.

Overall a challenging course with a combination of straight shot and doglegs to make it interesting. If you have the time, I would recommend playing during the week as I can imagine it taking quite some time to finish a round on the weekends.

Not worth what they charge

Played this course for the first time, and luckily I was able to get $30 hot deal. During the round the greens were very inconsistent and some places they were in such bad shape. The layout was decent but I feel that if the greens are terrible, then it's not worth playing. I would never pay more than $30 to play this course.
