Lakes/Fairways at Centennial Golf Club

I've played a lot of courses in the tri-state area. I live in Northern Westchester and travel up to 2-3 hours sometimes to play. So I've seen my fair share of courses. Never in my life, have I played worse greens. Speeds were a little slow, and inconsistent. I'll let that slide because of the rain we got yesterday. But that wasn't even the problem. What really got to me was how beat up they were. Every course in the area gets a lot of play. So the amount of play CGC gets, is no excuse for how bad the greens were. If I had played here on a weekend, and payed $135, I'd be absolutely furious and would feel duped. This isn't even a $90 dollar weekend course in the condition it's in.

For $135, I want greens that aren't absolutely beat up and patchy. Literally every putt had to go past at least 15 pitch marks. I just watched my ball hop around and zig zag each time it hit a pitch mark. What a joke. The greens are just littered with pitch marks. For that price, some GPS would be nice too. Also, for that price, the tee boxes shouldn't be chewed up like a 2nd rate muni. I'm beyond happy that I only payed $60 on GolfNow. My playing partners payed $99. I'd be pretty angry and duped at that price point too.

Pros:

• Fun Layout

• Visually pretty holes

• challenging - you have to hit good shots here.

Cons

• Worst greens I've ever putted on. This is not an exaggeration. They were insanely bad

• Tee Boxes - The par 3 tee boxes were some of the worst I've ever hit off of. Good luck finding an area that doesn't have 100 divots. Also, it would be nice if they were level. More often than not, I felt like the ball was above my feet or that I had an uneven lie on the tee. A fair amount of the par 4/5 tee boxes were also pretty beat up. Long grass like it hadn't been mowed in 3-4 days. Crab grass sprouting up on most of them.

• Bunkers - I know we just had a major storm yesterday, but it would be nice if the grounds crew at least raked the bunkers to start the day.They were all just solid, wet, dirt. Luckily I only had to hit out of 2.

• Price - Sure, I only payed $60 on GolfNow, but if I was there on a weekend and they charged me $135 to play this place, I'd have a word or two for them after my round. DO NOT PAY MORE THAN $60 FOR THIS PLACE.

• Some holes just don't reward good shots.

Not worth 100 it’s a good layout. Fairways are decent. Greens are inconsistent and have a million ball marks. Some tee boxes are uneven and almost weird. It’s alright course. Not worth a 100. If u get out for 60. I’d say go for it

Beautiful views in a picturesque setting for sure is a sight to see. Tee boxes and greens in horrible shape. Pace of play was a nightmare ‘Death March’ with no Ranger to be found. Sand traps had craters that God himself would have struggled to get out of. Not worth the price outside of some amazing mountain pics.

Not bad layout. Tee boxes need work. Greens need a bit of work. No one fixes ball marks. Fairways are good. Nice views Pace of play was excellent I guess it’s the only decent course besides pound ridge but not worth a 100 bucks

Course is in great condition, very challenging. Staff is very friendly

The course is fairly hillly but plays fair. The design concept is the same. Play over and around Glg hills and valleys.

I assure you you’ll enjoy your round.

Just people don’t repair ball marks not really there fault. Great golf course I loved it

Unfortunately have to agree with a majority of the reviews here. Land and layout are spectacular and it's a challenging track, but greens and tee boxes are absolutely abysmal for a course charging $135, and fairways aren't great either. All three areas need some serious love, maybe even a reset this off-season, before I'd consider playing again at that price point. .

Course layout is good. Pretty course. Some good holes.

Tee boxes are pretty beat up. Fairways are in good shape. No one repairs ball marks on greens

Overall had a good time and enjoyed course. A little more work on course would improve experience.

This course never disappoints. Although, it’s usually out of my price range for a round I was able to score a deal on TeeOff which made this a complete steal. The only complain would be some of the tee boxes were either beat up or not mowed down enough. But everything else was a 9 or 10. I scored a couple more “deals” and can’t wait to go back.

2 fantastic 9's. Scenic holes of varying difficulty. A good test from the blue tees. Greens are BIG and undulating. Very fun golf course.

I have played here many times but they are still now prepared for play. Gave us 1/2 a bucket of range balls for some reason. Wanted to charge us another $8 for more balls even though round cost us $135. Check in staff barely attentive and again hoarding range balls for warm up. Bunkers are a mess. Sand needed in most bunkers. Greens have seen better days. Greens had brown spot, tons of ball marks, and all seem to be different speeds since maintenance Crew is thin. Staff on course pretty rude also.

Generally one of the best in NY but not worth the fee in this condition.. hoping post Covid they get back to business.

Beautiful course. Nice conditions but prepare for very hilly terrain( albeit gorgeous course!).

A little slow play but very nice & professional staff. Nice patio & restaurant too!
