Cherry Creek - The Woods Course

I have played this course many times. I was here the day after playing a beautifully manicured pvt. club in Tenafly, so maybe that colored my opinion a bit. The short of it is that this course gets a lot of play, the greens are in VG, but not great shape. Tee boxes need work. Fairways are well groomed. It's by no means a boring track...you will have fun at most any level and the staff are very pleasant. It's worth the trip out to Riverhead!!!

We enjoyed playing the woods.
Little narrow but made us play smart.

Wow, this course is great! Tee boxes in great shape, greens, fairways, sand traps all follow suit. But let me say this, if you are not hitting the ball straight, go elsewhere. If trees lining each side of a narrow fairway get in your head, play elsewhere! Basically, if you are a novice golfer, this course in not for you! I've played the montauk downs quite a bit, which is a tough course, and this course is harder! Once again, this course rocks, as long as you're a decent golfer!
Go across the street (cherry creek) for a more wide open, minimal ball loss experience.

No particular hole on this course stood out for me, but it was an enjoyable round to be sure. The course was in very good condition, and the staff was very accomodating. I do enjoy playing the Par 73 Links Course that is across the street much more.

Course was in great shape, not crowded & the staff was very freindly. Hve played the links across the street a few times which is much more forgiving. Would out a doubt play there again.

Hard to find a better course to play in the summer. The trees kept me in the shade all day. Not sure if that's true for people who play from fairway. Me n my guys were in shade all day!

Every thing was in great shape had some Tuff Pin Placements hooked up with 3 guys Who were Out in the Hamptons all good Guys had.a lot of fun its a Tight Track hit alot of 3 woods will play again soon

pace was good considering holiday weekend nice staff great food.

Narrow fairways, so hit the ball straight. Challenging greens. Will definitely return.

Excellent conditions and friendly staff. Course was jammed which resulted in very slow play. Got paired up with a very nice couple so it was a most enjoyable round. Thought they should have come around and empty garbage receptacles throughout the day as it was messy. Also cart girl was nowhere to be found until 17th hole. Overall we enjoyed it and will return

I enjoyed the course> It was tight on some holes and the par 4s on the back nine were long. Staff was great. I will return.

Having thought we booked our tee time at the Links Course, we were surprised and a little disappointed when we were told the reservation was at The Woods. At the end of the day I was no longer disappointed. The course was very challenging and in great shape. If you are looking for an excellent value and very challenging golf course, this is the place to play. Bring your straight game otherwise be prepared to play from the woods on your second shot on many holes.

Although I have played this course previously, I didn't want to drive an hour to play. However, scattered showers were forecasted and gn had it for $19! Couldn't pass it up. My buddy and I played in 3 hrs ( we had the course to ourselves). The greens were the best we had played on this year on LI. Super had roped off many areas were carts have worn away grass from those who have to taken carts next to greens. This has improved the ecstatics and the playability of the course. Will have to get back there again SOON.

The course is beautiful. The greens are well kept however the the fairways were a little long. Probably didn't cut them yet. Not a lot of rough either, which sounds good but that's because most of the holes are super narrow. Trees align the holes so accuracy is key.

Have played this course numerous times and has kind of been hit or miss on the conditions. After coming off a brutal winter I was not expecting too much, however I was pleasantly surprised at the condition it was in. Greens were rolling nicely , and fairways overall were pretty good, with the exception of some left over stray leaves. Would definitely give it a go again in the near future.

course had leaves covering the fairways making it very difficult to find good drives. Advice was don t be married to your ball , from starter. The price was not worth the aggeravation looking for balls all day long. 30 dollars to play another 30 for a dozen balls . Their sister course across the street had much better maintence.

The leaves on the course was unacceptable. There has been nothing done as far as maintaining the course in weeks. There were tire tracks on the first 6 greens, no tee markers, no ball washers, and the course was not woth the discounted rate which we paid. We will not be going back there any time soon.

I've played here many times before but I won't be going back. The course was covered in leaves making it almost impossible to find the ball even in the fairway. After 3 hours on the course the pro comes out to the 15th fairway and tells us we have to have the cart back by 3 o'clock. This was never mentioned when I was paying my green fees to the same guy. On the 16th hole the cart dies. The same guy comes out in a cart and tells us we have to walk the rest of the round if we want to pay all 18. I asked him for the cart he was driving and he said no. It was obvious he just wanted to go home early. There are many golf courses in that area so I will not be going back to cherry creek.

Great conditions: tee boxes, fairways and greens. Great staff

Course was in nice shape but the fairways needed mowing. We waited on every hole and often had 3, sometimes 4, groups on a hole. This was a Saturday and we never saw a ranger. Better hit the ball straight because every hole is tree-lined.
