Van Cortlandt Park Golf Course

Got 3 carts all 3 were really dirty… not cleaned after each use and all had ripped seats. Really need to make it a nicer experience.. It looks like a golf course from the 80s after you pay and you pick up your cart they need to clean that whole area up put a few more tables and things out and make an enjoyable experience

The fairways are barely grass. The tee boxes are basically just dirt with a few blotches of grass her and there. The greens are really bad too. The halfway house was closed on the hottest day of the year. I only played because the Hot Deal made it less than $20 (I think I paid $13 after a coupon too). It is normally around $70 with a cart which is insane. The course and facility has a lot of history (oldest public course in America), but I will not be returning after what appears to be lackluster management and grounds crew.

The nickle and dime you at every corner. First they charge you to park- only public course that does that - then with 20 dollars per player per cart that doesn’t even have gps , on top of green fees, you could be paying upwards of 75 bucks a round. 75 bucks a round for a course that hasn’t fixed its tee box on #1 in at least 5 years!! Hire more staff, repave cart paths, fix tee boxes, and space out tee times just to start. Refuse to play here again unless they drop their prices or fix these glaring holes.

Played VC many times over the years and probably won't play again for some time. Course is in horrible shape and looks like it's getting worse. The carts are outdated with no GPS yet still being charged way more than we should for 18 plus a cart.

Pace of play unbearable. Over 6 hour pace. Had to skip a few holes. Tee boxes pure trash, you're hitting weeds before the ball everywhere. Some tee boxes were so hard you had to hit off the weeds/grass. There is no way I would ever play here again. Only redeeming quality was the staff was nice

I see the first tee box finally being repaired so the ladies tee box is in play for all. The greens usual some run fast some slower. Fairways ok. I just did not have it today.

I've been playing Vanny since 1982, and I've always enjoyed playing here, even back in those early rounds when the course had fallen into disrepair. In the last 20 years with more money poured in to the course and with better management it's a fun track providing enough challenges for the average duffer. My biggest beef is with the condition of the tee boxes, although the course does get an overload of play and gets beat up. The fairways and greens are still in pretty good shape for the middle of the summer.

Course was short in spots but very challenging. Fairways and greens in excellent shape for public course. Pace of play was hard to take at times. Definitely need Marshals on the course moving people along. But overall a very Enjoyable Day!

This used to be the best and prettiest course in NYC, then for YEARS it was minimally maintained by management. It’s clear that they’ve gotten their act together, as with the exception of a few chewed up tee boxes (which is standard at any course at this point in the season) the track is in fantastic shape.

It’s a tough but fair track, the last 4 holes are not to be missed. Play here when you can.
