Van Cortlandt Park Golf Course

I’ve played this course many times. It’s a great looking course and good pace as well. I’m never waiting more then 2 mins at a home if I ever do have to wait.

Always enjoy playing there. Quick pace and the course is in good shape. Nice gem in the Bronx.

The course is nice, starts fairly flat then hilly on the last four. It is not an easy walking course due to distance between some holes .

There aren't too many golf courses within 30m of Midtown, this one is. It is a well maintained public course, the tee boxes and fairways are good, but the greens are hard and won't hold the ball. Enjoyed the round. Car Parking is $3, to be paid in cash.

This is my home course, so I am trying not to be too bias. I booked an afternoon tee time, and the pace of play was under 4 hours. The pace of play on the weekend is at least 4-1/2 to 5 hours. There have been times where I just only play 14 holes because of it. This is the main reason I rather play during the week. The course has improved overall compared to last year. The tee boxes are in much better shape compared to years past. Walking the course is difficult because of the long walks between several holes. The food on the cost is average but better than some of the other public course in the city. the clubhouse Burger is awesome. They have an average bar and staff is friendly and accommodating. There's also plenty of available parking for free and for a fee. You have several nice restaurants nearby and I recommend Rick's Steakhouse on Broadway. Outside of the pothole all over the cart path it's a decent course. I give 3-3.5 stars, which is average for a public course.

I really like the old charm and layout of this course.

Great course, in great shape for a muni. Accessible via subway. I play Vanny more than a dozen times a year; good variety of holes and looks, more interesting than just ‘bang driver’ every tee box, it’s a course that rewards a little course management.

Great course, beautiful layout and excellent location. Friendly staff and service.

Only issue was the sprinklers coming at 730 am on the greens while we were playing. Completely destroyed 2-3 holes and took away the good feeling.

Rest all good

No carts when arrived, and 3 groups on the tee at the firsg hole. Jammed packed.

One of the worst golf courses I’ve ever played at, never coming back here. The course managers were very rude to our entire party and the pace of play was terrible. The tee boxes might have been the hardest ground I’ve ever felt. Terrible conditions for the price we paid. Overall, one of the worst experiences we had golfing.

Course is in good condition with exception of tee boxes. Pace of play is always slow. Expect a 5 hour round.

The ground at the tee was hard and difficult to put tees in the ground. The cart paths were rough and uneven.

I'm new to golf and felt completely rushed the entire time I was out on the course. The Marshall came around to scream at me for letting another group pass me, and he immediately felt bad when I told him it was my third time ever golfing. Regardless, my first two rounds at other courses didn't feel rushed like this. I don't think I'll be coming back.

This is my local course and I frequently play here during the week. The pace of play can vary from time to time and it's possible to finish your round in under 4 hours. This is not happening on the weekends. Expect a 5 hour round.

The course layout is easy but if you want to walk be prepared for a long walk. The first tee is 1/4 mile or more from the clubhouse. You will have another long walk from hole 2-3, 7-8 and 13-14. Your longest walk will be from 14-15 and 18-clubhouse. The last four holes are very hilly but fun to play.

Overall I like the course because it close to home and they have really juicy burgers. What the course is in need of is some serious repair to the cart paths as they are riddled with potholes. The course maintenance staff has been improving the greens and tee boxes over the years.

After you finish your round you should consider Jakes Steak House located on Broadway near Manhattan College Avenue.
