Fun!

Great day, great course except the greens were a little torn up on a few holes. Keep it in the fairway, or you'll be playing new balls...

In great shape

Course was in great shape. Thick, long roughs were a challenge. Course is transitioning from private club to public snd there was very limited amenities and an issue with cart shortages but nice course to play

Change is part of life

Plus: Great layout deep rough beautiful course.

Minus. Had to wait for a cart right up to tee time. No alcohol. No cart service. No balls for driving range.

Still a great day but for $90 bucks? There are better around.

They only had 24 golf carts. Advertised greens fees were listed at $95 plus tax on that which their not suppose to. And the rough was 6 inches deep and 4 inches in the first cut. Could not find my ball all day.

Hidden gem

I’ve played a ton of courses in the New York metro area and the lay out, land scape and conditions of this course would be comparable to some of the best deceivingly difficult but playable for all skill levels based off tee box preference. I give it 5 stars ! Once the club house and pro shop are fully up and running this place will be a Long Island staple for golf courses

STAY OUT OF THE ROUGH or ur score card will be punished .
