Pelham Bay at Pelham/Split Rock Golf Course

Played Pelham Bay on Saturday. had to wait about 30 minutes until after our tee time until we were finally able to tee off. In front of our group were two groups of FIVE and there was no ranger, let alone starter on the first hole, to help control pace of play. Took about 3 and a half hours to play 14 holes at which point that was our round.

The entire course is just saturated and soaking wet and half of the fairways are just mud.

The course was in good shape but the pace was slow. No starters at first hole or on course staff. Watched each member of 4 some hit 2 tee balls each on 1st hole.

Overlooking the course causing an incredibly slow place of play, coupled with a severe lack of carts makes this not enjoyable. You're lucky if the cart you get from the 1990s still even works

This is a great track but the pace of play was ridiculously slow. The 2 groups in front of us 4 walkers and 4 hitting from the tips when they should have hit from the whites made this round maddening. Additionally the green fees should have been reduced because all the greens were aerated. As I said this is a great track to play just not this weekend.

Golf carts are pretty rough but an excellent course and lots of fun! Can’t wait to return!

Many cart paths rutted with holes. Bad drainage a perpetual problem on Split rock. Not a single ball washer ANYWHERE. STOP USING COVID AS AN EXCUSE FOR THESE TYPES IF SHORTCOMINGS!!!

Granted that it is early spring but the Greens should be the priority . The fairways could use an early Weed and Feed application to give the grass a kick start .

It is a fun course , just needs better attention .

* On each course there should be 2 Porta John`s on approx. 5 or 6 th. hole . There are Women as well as men on the courses .

I normally don’t play the state courses close to the city, and I was reminded today why. Teetimes were slim everywhere but happened to get a 12pm slot the day of. First time out for the season so why not. Total confusion as to where to wait/get a cart, as there are hoards of golfers standing around. Pace of play is unbearable, 5 and a half hour round, 1.5 hours on 3 holes alone. I’ll give a them a little break for course conditions since is early season, but it wasn’t good. Layout is nothing to write home about, pretty plain. Overall it is not worth 60 round, especially when the cart barely works. I can play other Westchester county courses for less and they are way better.

For an early season round the course was in not to bad of condition. The pace of play is much to long. It took more than 5 hours for 18 holes. There are no rangers on the course.

Anxious to get out after not playing for 5 months. Not many options locally as snow was still on the ground in most courses near by. I've played PB/SR before and they're decent courses. Nothing real extravagant or overly challenging. Pace was good but the wind got worse as the day wore on. I'll definitely play here again though it is not someplace I play every year.
