NYC’s Best Public Course
Van Courtland is hands down NYC’s best public golf course. Fairways and tee boxes are in great shape with little imperfections. Some greens do need some extra care due to the lack of care from other golfers not repairing divots. Pace of play varies but during the weekday at an early afternoon tee time we finished in just over 4.5 hours. Overall Van Courtland is phenomenal course and is now my go to course in NYC.

Lacking
Van Cortlandt has the potential to be the best course in NYC but continues to disappoint. A little maintenance on the tee boxes and greens would go a long way. Bunkers were actually in good shape, but everything else was a struggle.
