After half the groups had teed off and there was still 4 or 5 in front of us. And we were on time. Photo submitted by null on 09/25/2014
Excellent
6:03 tee time, beautiful in the morning, had 3 giant snapping turtles walking across the course!
Vanny
First time playing this course in about 4 years. It has deteriorated significantly. It is a cow pasture, tee boxes are mostly hard pan, fairways are clover and dandelion, greens are barely hanging on. Played on a Monday late morning. Halfway house was closed! Only 2 water jugs on the course and one was empty. This used to be the best public track in the Bronx, NO MORE! Play Pelham or Split Rock. Don't waste your money on this one.
Great 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.
Good Day
Always enjoy playing there. Quick pace and the course is in good shape. Nice gem in the Bronx.
A nice course
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 .
Good golf course with easy reach of Manhattan
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.
Old Vanny
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.
Charming Course
I really like the old charm and layout of this course.
Classic NYC muni
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.
