Kissena Park Golf Course

Well Kepted Greens and Course Conditions are Good.

We had the first tee on Sunday 7:05am and by the time we got to #10, there was 5 groups in front of us, even though they are not supposed to let people start through the back nine after 8am. There was a even a walking 5-some warming up to tee off! Suffice to say, we ended up abandoning our round because it would have taken us 3 hours just to complete the very short back nine. Just not worth it. Course is in average conditions and for the price they charge you would expect something much better.

Short course, in fairly decent shape. 4 hour round as a twosome on a 4660 yard course, so while pace was acceptable, it wasn’t like we were blazing around the course.

Bunkers were in very nice shape. Greens rolled a bit slow. Tee boxes were flat and well maintained. Roughs we’re lush and actually fairly penal.

Course isn’t particularly interesting. Not many noteworthy holes, though one mid length uphill par 3, I think 14 was actually quite pretty.

Not sure if I’ll ever be back again, but certainly don’t regret playing there, and would recommend to more novice golfers.

Not too bad for a public course 20 minutes outside of Manhattan, but don't go in with high expectations. Course is in decent shape, but some of the greens are brutal! Apparently no one fixes divots and it affects putting. For how short the course is (par 64 with no par 5s), the pace of play is excruciatingly slow. Took almost 5 hours to get through 18. When we stopped at the shop at the turn, the person working was on a cigarette break and refused to help us until he was done smoking. Even after he finished, he seemingly did not know how to work the register and had to call backup - the whole ordeal took up 20 minutes just to get a few drinks for the back 9. That being said, the course does the job and you will have fun with friends and is a good easy course for new golfers.

Unfortunately the greens have seen better days, but that won’t deter me from returning. I know they will get them back into great shape.

Did not play. The account sent me a review without me even checking into the course. No reservation confirmation received. I played Pelham Split Rock as you can see on my same day reservation. Please credit my account for the non playing of Kissena today

Great short course. Great to walk with a push cart. This course has a lot of ELEVATION shots so really good course to practice learning how to read certain elevations. Rangefinders with slope reading are amazing here. Practice those slope shots.

Check in to see if they've aerated the green recently though. Punched greens are the wrost.

Shorter course, great pace of play...early morning. Nice course to work on 2nd/approach shots, very good fairways. Greens a little bumpy, ppl not repairing divots.
