Golfer Reviews
Painfully slow
It took over 5 hours to play 18z we arrived and were paired with another twosome. There was a twosome ahead of us who were behind a foursome. We had to wait on every shot on the front and then when the twosome jumped that foursome we only hD to wait on every tee shot on the back. Saw a couple rangers on the course but they seemed to be of no help as we were keeping up with the group ahead of us. It was very frustrating to play 3 hours on the front and luckily enough it sped up on the back so it wasn't a 6 hour round.
Course was alright, received a lot of water lately so the course was soaked but there were a lot ball marks on the greens. Luckily we only paid the hot deal rate, I would never come back at the full price.
Satisfying Course
Took the Early bird special and it turned out to be a very satisfying round for all of us. The course is well designed and properly maintained. Most of the staff were friendly and well organized. Lastly, this is one of the more beautiful course I have seen around the NY & NJ area, and would love to go back again as long as they keep the early bird special rate. ^^
Good Value of an Interesting Layout
I typically play Centennial once a year and this time was my annual sojourn. The staff was friendly, from the bag drop where someone immediately took my clubs, loaded onto a golf cart and the cart was outside the prop shop before I walked out; to the pro shop where there were two people checking in golfers as there was a steady stream of folks checking in.
My fees included cart and range balls. The Centennial range is natural grass so it was a true warm up. The practice greens are large with many variations of lies for putting warm-up. The course is well laid out but you need a cart. The Lakes is hilly and both courses had significant green to tee distances. I saw the rangers at least three times to monitor pace of play which was good (we did not have to wait too much as we were a threesome).
My only area that I would like to see improvement is two-fold. Add either the GPS system to the carts or provide yardage books; and provide one towel per person. This would take this course to the next level of customer service.
Great course layout but pace and greens were not good.
Great layout and spectacular views off the tee. The course forces you to keep your driver in your back on some holes. The tee boxes were in good conditions. The greens were fast but not in the greatest conditions. If you can find a good deal to play a round, it is worth it but not worth it at its full price.
Delayed tee time & slow pace
My tee time was 20min delayed and it took 4 hour 50min to finish on Thursday.
The greens were not well maintained as used to be and they were bumpy.
Fairways were still good.
Men's bathroom was very dirty.
I like layouts of this course so hope they can improve in maintenance.
birdman
As always the best golf course in the area driving range and pratice facilities are excellent. The staff couldnt be any nicer especially that hunk Matt.
Worth the ride
Some of the greens' undulations are borderline unfair -- you cannot avoid three putting. A great deal of elevation changes on all three nines. Excellent practice facility: grass tees on the range and terrific short game practice area.
Beautiful Views!
This is a good golf course to play if you do not mind driving a little over an hour from New York City. The course is in good shape. This course has one of the most beatiful views from some of the tees.
outstanding
Had heard this was a nice course - drove an hour and a half to get there - was not disappointed - course was in excellent condition - greens were beautiful - very true - staff was attentive and friendly - what a challenge - really great views from the elevated tee boxes
Overpriced average golf course
I had read and heard many good things about this course. However, the only thing that didn't disappoint was the practice facility. Everything else was very mediocre. When you consider the green fee is $135, it isn't worth half that. Unless you can find a deal for about $25, stay away. Any municipal course is just as good. The conditions were horrible. Tee boxes and fairways were a joke and the greens were slow and bumpy. Maybe in July this course is in decent shape. Avoid this course, you will be disappointed.
this course has it all...
27 amazing holes, a great driving range and short game area and friendly staff w reasonable prices.
Country Club Qualities
This course offers memberships and is open to the public. It is very well maintained and the greens fees reflect that. I certainly recommend this course to all golfers even if you have to save a bit to play.
The staff is professional and very friendly. Though I played late in the season (11/10/13), the conditions were very good. I considered this the finest course outside of private country clubs that can be played in the lower Hudson Valley.
Beautiful course and scenery
Very nice course from the tee to the green, beautiful view, excellent practice facilities, good food. I had a great time.
good course quick pace
Downer was cart paths only after rain,
Dr."s note for physical impairment made no difference.
A great golf experience.
A well maintained course (played the Lakes-Meadows combo) with plenty of terrain change and challenges. Greens were in good condition and putted true. A bucket of practice balls was included in the price and the range was great. Very friendly staff all around, well kept facility with a nice pro shop and excellent food service. Had a good breakfast at the club house before hand and nice late lunch after the round. I will definitely come back!
Best course in Hudson Valley.
This course is well maintained. Practice areas are very nice. The course itself is very challenging. I will 100% play this course again and again in the future. Pace of play was avg and the price is avg too since you pay for what you play. I highly recommend this course to anyone.
