Poor Architecture

As a 2 handicapper, I have been playing golf for 30 years and I can honestly say the architects had a beautiful piece of property to work with and really screwed it up. Traps located 275 plus off the tee????
Handicap of holes needs to be revamped by USGA.
They had 2 ranger carts and we never saw one which was badly needed....Save your money and go somewhere else. Unfortunately on L.I. most good courses are private. The links next door is a bigger joke with a 630 yd. par 6....Hello a par 6....I have played longer par 5's......These are not REAL golf courses....4some on 6th tee went to halfway house and spent 15 mins there, holding up play for everyone.....r u kidding me!!!!!!!!!!!

Course in great shape from tee to green. You need to use all your clubs to play this golf course. Start time was accurate. Played eighteen holes in 4 hours and 30 minutes. I will play this course again and soon.

all and all a solid track

Many narrow fairways to challenge your ability to control the flight of your shots. The greens are on the larger size overall, which made them very forgiving if you go a bit wide of your target. They also were very soft and receptive. That leads me to one of the only negative things I have to say about the course. Despite the greens being very receptive to your approach they also roll super slow. The only other complaint I have is that a fair amount of tees were very soft and chewed up. At the end of the day though it was a very enjoyable course to play and I would recommend it to anybody who was thinking of playing it.

A hidden gem

the woods is a well maintained golf course with narrow enough fairways to make every tee shot an event. well maintained with manageable greens it is a course that is suitable for most handi caps, although high handicappers might lose fewer balls across the way at its sister course the links. this course attracts golfers from NoFo , Hamptons and even Nassau county due to its fine play and welcoming staff. I have played it many times and will continue to keep it in the rotation.

Would have been better.....

It was our second time playing at The Woods. We were paired with two women who allegedly play often but apparently don't believe in "ready golf" and course etiquette. They constantly chatted away during our golf swing and were so slow. What should have been a 4.5 hour round wound up being six hours. In any event, my husband and I will be back.

Tight fairways

Tightest fairways I've played. More narrow than Spring Lake. Played in morning. Green speeds are inconsistent due to amount of shade on greens. They dry out when/if sun hits them. Overall, course in good shape. I would recommend as a course to play, but I will venture to other courses before going back

Nice..

Played under 4 hours which was nice.. Sand traps too rocky.. Greens rolled well but a little slow for my taste.. They were rolling the greens at 1pm and had someone blowing leaves or cutting grass on every other hole which is great they care about conditions but don't think that should be going on at noon but more so at 5-6am before everyone's out playing already.. Overall a challenging little track with friendly staff (although I told them they had no toilet paper in men's stall and 4 hours after my round they still didn't)
I'd play there again.. Bring a roll with ya

Nice track

The course is worth the $.
It's not very long, windy or gimmicky. Not many memorable holes. I remember only 2-3 that I'd like another crack at.
The course does demand accuracy off the tee since most fairways are tight and tree lined. However, you won't lose many balls due to misses into the trees. Errant tee shots kick back into play as often as not. Distances allow par saves when that happens.

The whole facility has the feel of a private course/club.

It's a nice round, low stress. $45 is about right.

I'd go back when in the area.

Caveat emptor: Single digit handicappers may be underwhelmed.

Solid course for the money

Conditions were the best part - consistently good. Fairways and greens could both do to be a bit shorter/harder, but all in all nice maintenance. Traps are good and all is very green. Layout is not great, but keeps it interesting enough. Course does have lots of trees, but they maintain grass under the trees so finding the ball is not too much of an issue. Even with all the trees, not a very difficult layout. Big greens.

Great Day

Fairways are too long. if you high ball you get no roll.

The rough is about 4 - 6 inches thick.

You should have one not both. Course plays long.

Great value on north fork of Long Island. The staff is very friendly, the course was in excellent condition, greens were in very good shape and rolling true. The restaurant was good too, played as a threesome and we played just under 4 hours. Will be back!
