South Shore Golf Course

Place was horrible tee box’s was uneven and bad shape the fairway and greens had leafs covering every hole was a mission to find your ball on the fairway not alone the rough place was not worth the money two out of the 18 holes didn’t even have a green to play on. Overall a 0 out of 5

To start, the course had 2 holes that were essentially unplayable; due to vandalism apparently so cannot say much about that. But the 2 holes that were vandalized had no green, just a hole with a flag in the middle of the fairway.

Anyways, the real thing that upset me was the attendant at the front desk, the old very grumpy rude man. He chased us down to our hole at 5:40, stares at us says nothing, and we asked what’s the matter. The young gentleman was very friendly, only person responding. We asked if it was time to bring the carts back, the old man just stared at us with a very rude and nasty face. Then we asked if we can finish the hole then bring the carts back, and he responds “you can walk”. Very rude and terrible hospitality.

Luckily I used a hot deal. The fairways were aerated so vigorously that it was unplayable! Cigar size plugs covered the fairway. (Every fairway) No warning or notice. Two greens were closed due to neighborhood vandalism. In addition I was stuck behind 2 foursome's for what seemed like an eternity. The lead foursome were 4 men betting on every shot and taking 10 minutes every green to read the break! And they were playing from the tips!!! 3 shots to get near the GREEN.

The foursome in front of me must have been their wives. They had to sit and wait for the men to move along. I felt bad for them. There were 4 open holes in front of the men. I really don’t play on Staten Island much due the slow pace of play. I’m definitely not going back anytime soon. The staff are great. Greens are good…the pace and fairways are terrible.

This course had 2 greens that were unplayable, they stuck the flags in the fairway in front of greens, you could not putt, there should have been some sort of discount for these conditions

Considering two greens were damaged /closed there should be a discount relative to other courses on Staten Island.

Extremely poor condition if it’s to succeed they need to get its act together. Sorry but true

Unfortunately, two of the greens on the back nine were vandalized and we had to putt to temporary pins. That’s not the course‘s fault, though. Also, some of the tee boxes were a bit muddy. Other than that, the course was in good shape. We really liked the layout of the course, especially the ninth and 18th holes.

The course has a good layout for a novice golfer. Some shorter holes and fewer hazards than more challenging courses.

The tee boxes are very bad. No grass and sand for the most part. The greens are in great shape except for #12 & #14 which are undergoing major repair with the flag in the middle of the fairway.

Save your money and go play LaTourette up the road until next season.

Nice course, good layout, but unfortunately two of the greens on the back 9 were seriously damaged by vandals.
