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
Always a pleasure to play Vanny
Always a fun course to play, forgiving enough for bad golfers, challenging enough for good golfers
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.
Great course
Very nice layout big enough and small enough for the average golfer
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.
The Vanny
The Vanny is always a solid round for the price. The staff is always friendly and the guy in the pro shop was a trip. Even the starter and I were discussing my irons. Some tee boxes are a little rough, and they've had some water damage. But always a good day especially when you pass the half way house twice.
A hidden gem
Right in the middle of New York City is a championship golf gourse. Challenging and fun. Staff was great.
Conditions
I was very disappointed with the conditions of course. The grass was too high and we had a hard time finding balls near fairways. Most tees were best up.. the cart paths were horrendous and need work. In comparison to nearby courses I would unfortunately rate it below par. It’s sad because it’s such a beautiful course but for the price I would rather go elsewhere.
Quality golf experience at a reasonable price
Always enjoy a round of golf at Van Cortland and teaming the experience with arrangements serviced through Golf Now only adds to the pleasure.
The course is in particularly good shape given the rain we have been having.
Go and enjoy your experience.
