Course Highlights
The course layout earns strong praise, with long par 4s and par 3s offering a genuine challenge balanced by more forgiving par 5s. Conditions consistently impress recent golfers, and the historic setting near New York Harbor adds memorable character to every round.

Every time I play at Dyker I always say it can’t get any worst than last time but they always manage to surprise me, from not having enough carts, to staff members giving us a hard time with our green fee purchases, to being 30 min+ delayed at hole 1, to staff members jumping the queue for a round… and now to one of worst conditions I’ve played and I’ve played on almost all the muni courses. I already have a pretty low bar.

Tee boxes were almost never flat and had minimal grass. Some were just plain uneven dirt. And then if I manage to hit a good shot on the fairway, I was somehow still punished as many parts of the fairway just barren sand/dirt with dead grass. Paying $100 for this is just unacceptable, along with a delayed start time and an almost 5hr round … what yall doing dyker?

Amazing hidden gem in Brooklyn

Came to play this course with my son who lives in Dyker Heights and there were several times where we didn’t even feel we were in Brooklyn the course amazing very Shinnick well kept unfortunately there is a little bit of litter among the holes but that’s not the course full just the visitors. The staff was amazing welcoming and really engaged throughout the 18 holes to make sure everybody was keeping up with pace of place which was necessary. Jerry at the pro shop was very good. I will be coming back.

Expect to be here for 5+ hours.

Had a 10:32 teatime on a beautiful Friday, wasn’t on the box until 11:10. The course could be great except it’s not, some fairways are great and the course allows you to use your diver a lot. The grass is very thin on the fairway and is extremely firm all over the course - and this was the day after rain.

Some of the greens are unplayably hard. Zero give to them at all. You’ll hit a beautiful Iron it’ll land perfectly on the green and somehow runoff the back every single time. The greens have zero divots in them because they are so hard.

With a 1032 time I finished playing at 3:35

Great Minu Course

It sounds like a lot of the complaints come from people expecting a private club experience at a public course. Public courses in places like Brooklyn , Queens and the Bronx are naturally going to play slower because you’ve got amateurs, casual golfers, and weekend players all sharing the course — that’s just part of the experience.

The staff here has always been friendly and accommodating, the course itself is in great shape, and the grounds crew deserves credit for keeping it maintained so well. They’re courteous, hardworking, and clearly take pride in the course.

For the people constantly leaving negative comments about pace of play: if you want a faster, more exclusive experience, maybe a private club is a better fit. Otherwise, relax and enjoy the round.

Fun Time

Was concerned about tee time and pace of play given other reviews but played in 4 hours. Course in decent shape, greens are slow and rugged but it is muni golf. Everyone was friendly.

GOOD CONDITIONS, POOR PACE

My buddy and I had a 12:48pm tee time. There’s no driving range or practice green here, so we arrived at 12:20-12:25. When we are passing the first tee we see a fleet of golf carts. We teed off a whole half hour after our booked time. When I asked the starter what caused they delays, he simply replied, “it happens”

The round itself took us 4hours and 45 minutes to get through.

The condition of the course itself it’s actually very well maintained. Maybe the tee times are too close together and/or no one enforcing pace of play.

Geese poop, sandy greens

The geese went to town on the course, every fairway covered. The greens were sand covered, unpredictable rolls. A good front layout but the back has risky par threes, fore!!!!
