Typical East Coast golf course

Very flat,narrow,short.May not be a challenging course for a single-handy capper,but very enjoyable for an average golfer.Those golfers who are looking for more challenges should try Split Rock next to each other.

Great Start to Labor Day Weekend

Nice open course to play.. the pace was perfect for front nine.. There was some backup in the back nine but nothing that was extremely unbearable. Great time for the value.

Beautiful Golf Course

I like Split Rock better than Pelham, scenery is a lot nicer as is the golf course. My low rating of rate of play had nothing to do with course, but I had a group in front of me that did not care of pace they were playing and the Ranger didn't do much to help. The food rating is due to at the turn, you can only get a burger or hotdog and drink, which is really ok with me.
Other than the group in front of me, I had yet another wonderful time at Split Rock

Value for money not too tough

First time I have played here, and for $40 definitely money well spent.
Even though it was a Sunday, the course was pretty quiet and we walked straight on and teed off slightly ahead of our booked time (1.08)
Course condition on the whole was very good, the greens had been hollow tined, but were still running smooth for the most part (only 2 of the greens were patchy and unpredictable).
The teeing areas could do with work on most holes, the tee markers did not always line up with the direction of aim, and maintenance of them was patchy at best.
The course itself isn't particularly difficult. Its fair, and if you play well, you'll score well. The rough can be heavy and the trees are well placed to punish if you go off target. I really enjoyed it.

Oh and watch out for the local wildlife. As we were holing out on #1, a coyote walked up to us on the green looking for food!!

First Time

Decent course, not a fan of the aerated greens. Not a lot of woods, which I loved. No driving range. I'd go again for the money and proximity to my home.

What a prize

I have been golfing for 55 years, mostly MUNYs. In the past decade these courses have taken major steps in quality. The greens are beautiful, even though they were aerated on Monday. The fairways were in good shape. As on most courses this time of year the rough is rough and hard. Traps could use some fluffing.Think back to pro BP Black open and the major changes in local golf. This may not be country club or resort but they are very good. You shouldn't rate a course after a bad round one to two stars wake up dude this is a fun course.

Always fun, except for mosquitos!

These facilities have 2 golf courses: Pelham and Split Rock. I've played both many times, but this time playing on Split Rock was extra special as I played with an old friend that I haven't seen for 3 years!
The course is not in the best shape, but it has some challenging holes as well as some easy ones. If played from the back, it will test your skills! The best part of this course is the updated pro shop and hall, where many social events take place!
*Pelham is easier, and in better condition*

Old Classic

Great old course. Always enjoyable. Long rounds, but worth the wait. The one thing that stood out most was the Civil War tree on hole 9 that's no longer there! What a shame. Sandy sure did a number on our city...

Very badly run

On the day in question myself and a friend arrived at the course and were paired up with another 2 guys, who just so happened to take forever tee off hit the ball 60 yards and take at least 5 mins between shots, the starter then sent the group behind us in front off us to the 2nd tee box instead of doing something about the problem in hand. This course needs to hire starters who are not in their 80s and have all their senses. Absolute joke turned around and headed back for the clubhouse after the first hole. Disgrace

Nice but not exciting

You quickly forget you are in the Bronx on this wide open course with fun undulating greens. Challenges include a few long par 4's and tiered greens. The round was long. We played at 10:30 and ended at 3:30. The second 9 opened up without delay. It is not the most scenic of courses but for a fun round where you should be able to score low its a good day.

1st time Pelham Bay

Got paired up with a kid my oldest sons age, great company. Course was a bit rough and the greens inconsistent, but OK. Very lovely setting and it was pretty straightforward.
I understand that for a Saturday it was very empty, but being the 4th of July weekend probably had to do with that.
Will play again.
Also booked through Golf Now and paid 10 dollars less than my partner who booked through the course.

Trying to improve the pace of play

I haven't played here in years but came back after a friend invited me with an early tee time (7:40). Decided to come back again after having a 4 1/2 hour round. This time the tee time was 9:15 AM. It was pretty brutal as it took 5 1/2 hours to play. Most likely because the 2 groups of ahead of us had no or little golf experience. 3 out of barely got it pass the ladies tee and the 4th hooked out of bounds. To the credit of the rangers they stayed on top of this group. Yes, Pelham has rangers roaming around. They are trying to improve the pace of play which is great. This ranger followed this group for at least 6 holes. Otherwise, I find the course to be in great shape, and fun to play. Easily walkable course as well.

Beautiful Course

Great course; fair price!!! It's a great course. The only drawback was there was an outing the same day and now one advised us in advance. Should have been posted on line in advance.
