Pelham Bay at Pelham/Split Rock Golf Course

Course in good shape, carts are always filthy dirty, parking lot looks like it’s been “bombed” and in major need of repaying!!

I must say, overall this course is a great city course. We played Split Rock this time around and the layout is a lot of fun, depending on the day I could see how pace of play could get slow on a weekend, but today it was about a 4.5 hour round.

Tee boxes overall, good to very good, only a few that were in rough shape.

Fairways overall very good for this time of year/this late in the season.

Greens were a lot of fun, in great shape and fast today!

Bunkers are the only thing I’d rate on the low end of the spectrum. Probably a 2 out of 5 and that might be generous, hard packed and muddy for the most part.

Staff was friendly, nice to see a ranger on the course now and then to help keep the pace up.

There ya go, overall I’m impressed with the courses I’ve played out here.

Bunkers were in poor shape

Rest of course was great

Paid for a cart, didn’t get one. Third hole looked like the morning after one serious rager- not kidding, 100s of beer cans on the green. Crazy stuff to be paying for horrible conditions. Invest in some frogs while you’re at it, they’ll help with the mosquito infestation.

Absolutely eaten alive by mosquitoes will never be back

Split rock was very very poor the flys we’re everywhere and was impossible to enjoy the golf as was getting bitten.

Had to leave after 9 holes.

Also booked online and got fully charged and there was no carts available we had to walk!!

The definition of FINE but they have good sausages at the snack shop

Besides terrible course conditions, the parking lot has huge pot holes… flat tire!!!

When I booked the course for a 6:36am tee time on a Saturday, I just looked at the ratings but didn’t read the actual reviews. Getting a Saturday early tee time a few days prior is next to impossible but this course always seems to have them. Didn’t pay any mind to why. Well, we arrived at the course and our immediate impression was, the golf carts are all beat up, nobody there attending the check in area, the guy at the pro shop was cranky and unfriendly and the parking lot looked like bombs when off leaving craters everywhere. We started playing and we’re impressed with the upkeep of the grass. The course was actually nice. That was until we started getting attacked by mosquitos and horse flies and when I say attacked, I mean all out swarming Kamikaze type attack. It got so bad around holes and 8 and 9 that we couldn’t even focus on our shots. When we got back to the clubhouse, we used the restroom and saw a sign warning of bugs and bug spray is highly recommended and sold in the pro shop. Too bad we didn’t use the restroom upon arriving to see this sign over the urinal. The unfriendly guy in the pro shop could have mentioned the bugs to us and advised the big spray. When we returned the motorboat sounding cart, once again, nobody there to check us out. There was also litter all over the parking lot and cart area.

Course decent, but everything else was horrible and I’d only play here if I’m absolutely desperate.
