Great Public Course

Great public course. My girlfriends and I played here. Lots of birdies made and almost an eagle on a par 5. Great layout, greens and fairways are coming in. The par 3s are harder than the par 5s! We had lots of fun and will be back!

New improvements

The course is in good shape. They have replaced the old gas powered carts with new electric carts. The automatic cart limit boundaries are a little too sensitive.

Great Bones

Course has great architecture and design. Persistent drought has taken its toll on some tee boxes and fairways, especially on the front nine. With some rain and some TLC, course should bounce back. Greens have held up well despite the drought and cold nights. Always a pleasure and challenge playing here!

Fun and challenging

The course wasn’t crowded so when our group of four played the pace of play was good. The course is in very good condition, especially the greens. They are pretty fast with lots of undulations. The course layout is fun and interesting. The bunkers weren’t the best but better than most municipal courses. We will be back soon.

Course is challenging but not too aggressive.

Customer service was over the top. From the time I arrived to the time I left. Carts are state of the art and very useful.

Suffolk Golf Course

The only thing that bothered our group was how tight the GPS boundaries were. My cart locked up on the cart path adjacent to the 28th green and would not reset. The golf course however was a fun layout, even for lefties.
