Red at Eisenhower Park Golf Course

I've played this course for years. The pace of play is slow, but it's a municipal course and you should expect that when you play. You'll see a ranger or two here and there, but they usually drive by not paying attention or one time I even saw one off in the woods hitting golf balls. This review has nothing to do with pace play, however.

Recently played here and to be honest I really like the layout. This course has some challenging g and easy holes, which make it a scoreabme track. My issue here is Nassau County could care less about its golfers. The greens were rock hard, almost like concrete, and burnt out. On some homes you are literally putting on dirt. Nothing was mentioned or even a sign where you pay. They are just charging full price and not caring. How can you do that and not care? My second issue is there is water on three holes that has a scum and bird dropping build up that hasn't been cleaned since I could only estimate when the Commerce event stopped coming there years ago. It's just filthy and disgusting and honestly embarrassing for whomever calls himself/herself course superintendent. Have some dignity in your work.

I will not waste my money on this course again. Nassau County, the superintendent and anyone else responsible for conditions should be ashamed of themselves. I'd be shocked if they even read any reviews on the courses.

Hi, the Red course at Eisenhower used to be my favorite course. I learned today that the wrong chemical was put on the greens and they are all burnt out. I was told they should be back by next year. Nassau County is still charging the same prices for this course to play. Stay away until next year.

The only negative is the back-up, especially on the 2nd hole. That made it a 5 hour round. Other than that, it was great. Some long par 4s, nothing gimmicky, nice layout, fast greens.

the course played pretty fast and the greens were a little beat up from all the play from the year

An afternoon round is never less than 5 hours. Tough to deal with.

Very slow pace, waited on the tee box for more than 5 mins on every hole but the first two. The course was in very good condition, no cart girl but there was a nice halfway house

We got there 30 minutes early, poor signage and no one to help we lost all 309 minutes trying to figure out where to pay, and where to start. No signs on the course, no course map, easy to get lost looking for the next hole. Everyone running the course was friendly, the course was in extremely good condition. Play pace was hardly regulated if at all, we were passed by a threesome on the fairway, no asking no nothing... Overall, it'll be easier the second time now that I know what to expect.

5.5 hours, greens nice. Would be better on a rainy day with no one there.

Slow play on Friday afternoon 9 holes 3.5 hour and not able to finish all 18th.

It's real traffic. Drove and played take us 5 1/2 hours. A lots ball mark remain unrepaired on the green.

I must admit that compared to it's sister courses the White and Blue, the Red course was in excellent condition. The fairways were manicured the greens were fast and the bunkers were raked. My main concern was that it took over 6 hours to play 18 holes. Such a disgrace. The pace of play was extremely slow as we waited on each of our tee and fairway shots. I also observed golfers driving their carts way beyond the restricted areas and onto the edges of the greens. During the six hours of play not once did I see a ranger drive by. Such a shame for a nicely maintained course. Never again.

Our foursome teed off around 2:00 and played the last two holes in near darkness, finishing around 7:30. Other than the wait time, we enjoyed the course.

It was way too crowded, we had a 2:20 tee off time and we ran out of daylight and could not finish. Many tee boxes were backed up 2 and 3 foursomes.
I will not go back there because of slow play and/or over booking

I expected a 5+ hour round but was pleasantly surprised that we were practically the only ones on the course after a storm threatened morning. Fun, classic layout with little water hazards but well protected greens. Fairway and green side bunkers have consistent sand; greens and tee boxes show typical public course wear and tear but fairways are in great shape. Really enjoyable round, would definitely go back on a day when weather is iffy.

At golfnows discount price this was a bargain. I hadn't played the Red in a decade and a half and what a difference! Some tee boxes were a bit scruffy but otherwise the conditions, especially around the greens, were far superior to what one expects from a county facility. Highly recommended (at the golfnow price).

In great shape for this time of year. Greens true and fast.

The complex feels like a golf factory. The course is in average condition. The back nine seems nicer and better maintained than the front. Pace of play is slow and the course appears overbooked.
We were backed up by two groups on several holes. Could use a ranger?

Decent design and decently maintained for a high-volume public track. However, clientele is abysmal in etiquette and staff couldn't care less about playing conditions. Will not play again, even if it were free. Any reason golf is dying, six hours????

I have played this course a number of times because of the conditions and challenge of the layout. It is in great shape - fairways, bunkers and greens. But have yet to play it in less than 5 hours. Yesterday we teed off at 12:15 and walked off the course at 6:10. Lots of people walk, and some walk real, real slow. No rangers are ever present to help.

manicured fairways the rough was a little deep challenging true putting surfaces enjoyed it
