Cherry Creek - The Woods Course

Links & Woods are next to each other, both course are well keep & challenge. Personally like the link a little bit more, the greens are much smoother. they also have replay discount, spend your whole day for both courses.

This is one of my favorite golf courses on the eastern end of Long Island. It requires straight drives or layup shots for a proper approach shot.

The turnaround has a refreshment stand that is always open! There is always a pleasant woman ready to make an outstanding sandwich and serve you.

There are a few water shots. The second hole is a par 3 over water. Going a bit long will never hurt .

At the end of your round stop at the restaurant. The food is fantastic! The restaurant has the normal golfing food plus fine food. Try the muscles fradiavlo!

The bar has some craft beer on tap too.

The Course is privately owned and you can tell the family cares about the golfers experience . Thank You!

I have played this track many times over the years. The maintenance here is really bad. The bunkers have not been shaped or re-sanded in forever, the greens have a bad fungus on them and where there used to be ropes to keep carts from driving near the greens is now tire tracks.

The cups were all rounded over from not being changed and there were lots of un-repaired ball marks on the greens.

On the plus side, the employees there are very nice and the pace was good. Fairways were OK.

The Course is very tight! Some holes you can't use your driver, You have to use your 3 wood. The par 5s are short and fun to get on in 2. Greens are better at the woods than the Links. Greens are slow. You have to bring the putter back more. Staff is great and helpful to play your best round. You have to hit the ball straight and don't spray in the trees. Woods is shorter than the Links in yardage. I will be back!

Success at the Woods requires keeping your shots on course and out of the trees. An enjoyable challenge.

Worth taking the opportunity to play a round at The Woods.

Course is great shape, rough is very thick and healthy. The fairways could be cut wider. The tree lines on both sides are the real hazard on the Woods. Not playing a U S OPEN course here some fairways only 20 yards wide. Many times just had to hit 9 iron back to fairway.. Over all THE WOODS at Cherry Creek outstanding public course on Long Island.

As a first time player at The Woods I was unfamiliar with the lay of the land. I'll be better prepared next time. First, hit it straight. The first cut off the fairway is deep. A lush 4 inches deep. You'll need an extra club. The greens and fairways were in good shape. Finished round in just over 3 hours. I'll be back.

Great course. Maintenance crew have zero golf etiquette. Teeing off on 13th hole, the knucklehead cutting the tee box never stopped mowing and the guy on tractor crossed fairway 150 yards out while I teed off on 9th hole..... the dope doesn't even look or wear a helmet.

I hate to say it because I will probably never have this experience angain but I am a fair person so,..... played Sat. Morning @ 9:08am ( this was the morning after the sky opened On NY ) and the course drained exceptionally well allowing for a 3 hr round finishing at 10;30am. Mind you we were two, but I dare to ask if this could ever happen at Bethpage. You all know what I mean. See you all st Cherry Creek my friends.

The course is nice tough but fun to play.The weather caused the cart path only, and that caused a lot of walking.

the course was better than this suvey which keeps telling my tex is too short hope this is enought very nice course

Very kind staff, well maintained course, beautiful scenery. I am so happy to play here.

Staff is great, pace of play excellent.

The greens here and at the links are usually in excellent shape. This is why my rating is so low. If they would have made amends with the price because of the aeration, my rating might have been different. The greens were in horrible condition, cost me regular price and about 5 strokes.

The course is heavily tree lined. If you don't have good control over the driver this course may not be for you. The bunkers could be better maintained. The greens contain too many unfixed ball marks but they are still ok to play on. The fairways are very good. Tee boxes are good. Challenging course for middle handicappers (15 to 20). I' have a 15 index and I like the course.
