The course manages fairway and green very good
Course condition is very good including putting green
Centennial overview
The entire experience from the environment and staff to the conditions of the course, was inspirational. There were no holdups anywhere, the couple my son and I were linked with for the day were pleasant, engaging and courteous. The course is one I hadn't played in 10 years but my return was truly rewarding.
Spectacular Setting
Very challenging course, it's steady uphill/downhill play. Course is in good shape. It makes me feel sad that a lot of Golfers do not respect the hard work of the greenkeepers.I saw hundreds of unrepaired divots on the fairways and ball-marks on the nice greens .
I am a passionate walker. So to me it makes no sense at all that you can either ride a cart or you have to carry your bag. Pull- or push-carts are not allowed.
Than God for GN!
This is a wonderful facility with 3 magnificent 9 hole layouts. I would never be able to play there if it wasn't for golf now. Thank you GN & Centennial for registering this fine golf course.
Outstanding course
The staff at Centennial really, really makes this course a great venue. Although a public facility, the staff makes the golfers feel like members of a private course.
One of the best public period
From beginning to middle and toward the end of season, the conditions at this place is always beautiful. Food is great and staff is friendly. Layout for all 27 holes is beautiful and challenging. With the slope on the greens, putting is some times a tall task.
Consistently Good
Expensive but worth the occasional splurge. Technical course, Larry Nelson design. Traps need maintenance. Play can be slow. More rangers moving things along would be great.
Beautiful Track north of NYC. Pricet but worth it
You get what you pay for at Centennial. 27 holes of undulating fairways and challenging shot elevations. Price is a bit high for most to play frequently but worth playing every now and then. Layout is beautiful and challenging and is one of the prettiest course to play during the fall foliage.
I played this course about 3 times and yes they give you that look when they find you prepay on golfnow or teeoff.
Great course in Putnam County
Troon Management has kept this gem of a course on track. This is the first time I played this course this year and was happy that it still is a "must play" each year for me. Will definitely return especially if I can keep getting Golf Now deals.
Unbeatable
Hands down the best public course and facilities within 60 miles of Manhattan.
First Time Playing
Great challenging layout with excellent course conditions. Accuracy over power prevails here. I would play this course again and recommend to a friend for anyone who cares about course condition as their number one factor in choosing a course.
Not what it used to be
New management has changed the culture/feel at this course. This is to be expected anytime there's new management, but it has become less personable and less friendly. I've been at Centennial at least 40 times this year between practicing and playing and the new manager has yet to acknowledge me or even say hello. The course itself doesn't seem to be in as good condition as previous years - which may be due to this year's weather - but having played this course since its inception it doesn't seem as good as in times past.
Great views
Great course, even better views I highly recommend this place. Staff is top notch.
Beautiful course - take in the views!
Played for the first time on a Monday afternoon. The course was in great shape, the greens were still healing from aeration a couple of weeks before, so putting was still a little bumpy, but we were made aware of this when we made our reservation. Our 4-some bought the package deal with a sleeve of balls included for each player. We played the Lakes 9 first then the Meadows. Spectacular views, each hole offering a unique layout. The many hills make it a little more challenging.. a good test for any level player. The staff was very friendly and helpful. We had lunch before play and then stayed at the tavern for dinner.. great service and nice assortment of dishes on the menu. Would definitely play here again, looking forward to an Autumn trip.. should be gorgeous!
Aerated Greens
Greens had recently been aerated and were slow and bumpy. Looking forward to playing again when the greens are in better shape. Layout has a lot of elevation change and some challenging holes.
Could have been great
This was my first time playing this course, and I booked through golfnow. The facilities are top notch, and the courses are also beautifully laid out. Overall the course conditions were good. However, they made no mention at any time about aeration of the greens. We found out when we reached the 1st green. I wish they would've posted this status on golf now for people booking online. The range and Grill room as well as the pro shop are all very nice. Pace of play was a bit slow but not too bad. Overall, it was a good value for the rate I paid. Range balls included is a nice touch. Would definitely come back when the greens are in normal shape
Wish I had known
Booked on a Tuesday for a Thursday round. Drove over an hour to find out the greens had been arerated. Was not told on the website when booking, or even when we checked in for our round in the clubhouse. Course was otherwise in good condition, but we couldn't get over the fact that the greens were so bad.
Great Shape
The Course is in great shape right now. Greens are rolling like a private club. Staff is always friendly and cooperative with the players needs.
John

My group just played on Sunday and it was fantastic. About my fifth time at Centennial this year and it has been very consistently good. Is your rating of a course based on whether or not the manager says hello? LOL.
