Located in the heart of Eastchester, Lake Isle Country Club is a facility that is owned by the town and offers a swimming complex with five pools and a tennis center with eight courts in addition to the 18-hole, championship golf course. Opened in 1926, the course is one of the oldest in the area and it is still a local favorite. At just over 6,000 yards from the back tees, the course may be on the shorter side but it still offers some challenging holes. The layout is mostly reachable par 4s as well as a few tricky par 3s and only an occasional par 5. The golf course has a classic design that is approachable enough for a range of skill levels to feel comfortable tackling the layout.

simply a better experience than the local municipal courses...

well maintained, picturesque, pace of play, value for the money,
access thanks to Golf Now.... I hate the thought of ever playing some of the 5 hour plus local municipal courses again.

GREAT GREENS.

Lake Isle is a well maintained golf course. The staff was very welcoming and pace of play was excellent. We were able to play in under four hours and the experience was well worth the price. I will look to play again in the near future. The pro shop was well stocked, the carts were modern, and the improvements by Stephen Kaye were an added bonus to the original Devereaux Emmet design.

First Time Playing

Well-maintained, but marshal needs to be more aggressive

This was my first time playing at Lake Isle, even though I'm a resident of Eastchester. I found the course to be well-maintained, clean, and the staff extremely friendly. It's a bit short at under 6,000 yards, but made for a fun day. It's a good, walkable course. The course is not particularly challenging with only one water hazard on the 17th hole and forgiving fairways. That said, I thought the layout had good variety and was enjoyable to play.

The one negative from the day was the course marshal, who while extremely friendly and polite, did a very poor job of maintaining pace for the course. I'm not a scratch golfer so I can understand people playing fairly slowly and appreciate not being/feeling rushed, but we counted 14 strokes (and plenty of practice swings) from one person in the group ahead of us on a par 4. The result was them holding up both our group and the group behind us, despite a hole being completely vacant ahead of them. We brought this up to the marshal, but he didn't do anything about it. By the 13th hole, we managed to play through and we never saw them again (for all I know, they might still be there). If the marshal can pick up the pace a bit, it'd be a great, local resident course to play.

I'd definitely recommend the course, and would be sure to use Golf Now prices instead of Pro Shop as they can be considerably cheaper.

Course plays longer than you imagine.

It's a nice course. The greens are in good shape.The par 5's make it seem like it isn't a very long course. But, there are some long and challenging par 4's and a few very long par 3's that make up the difference. I will definitely play here again.

Nice Place

Good course I played about five years ago and the place has gotten much better. Greens were rolled true and were fast, fairways allowed balls to run which added a few yards when I actually hit the fairway. Staff at pro shop very nice and never had to wait on the tee. Only complaint is the bunkers they need new sand but living in Eastchester I know the money for that is not a top priority.

Not what you'd expect from a "Semi-Private" Course

A little disappointed with course condition for a "semi-private" bare and brown spots dry conditon. Short course, most holes reachable in two. Decent greens, Par threes had little or no fairways in front of greens.
Most of the Westchester Public Courses in better condition then this course Carts did not even have GPS Systems! Definitely would not spend full price to play this course not worth it.

Short course, and tight fairways with a few challenging par 4's and par 3's. conditions were sub par but still playable

Staff didn't manage the tee times appropriately and we had people jumping in front of us at the turn. Overall not the worst experience but could have been better.

Course itself is a classic layout and was well maintained

If you can get around the craziness of the parking lot and lack of a bag drop, the course is well maintained and a good value for a close 45 min from Manhattan.

Course is a great value.

Nice course. Short but tight so it is deceiving. After first three holes, the course picks up in length and challenge. Greens are great as well as the fairways. Bunkers are so so, hard with some rocks ? For the price on Golfnow great value. I would play it again for sure.

Ok course but too short and narrow.

Not a bad course but certainly a big stretch to call this course "championship" which the club does. Very short course (several par 4s at 300 yards) and quite narrow. An ok muni course at best. Fairways and greens are in good shape. Sand traps are rough. Probably wont return despite not a bad value with the golfnow discount. For a bit more money, there are plenty of actual championship courses in the area.

well maintained course. easy booking thr. GolfNow. I like it.

I have played at Lake Isle several weekends. I can only book thr. GolfNow because it is a local club belong to Eastchester. It is a well maintained, nice course. The best thing for me is you don't have to wait long to hit a ball, it is not crowded like another courses in the area. It costs a little more, but worth it.

Great course to play.

Lake Isle is one of the best semi private courses in Westchester County. The course is challenging and makes you use every club in the bag. Also, there are some pretty long and tough par threes so you better bring your A game !!!!!
