Cherry Creek - The Woods Course

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.

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.

good time for the price, good carts with GPS, good staff

Having played the links last week came out again to play the woods. course in great condition so don't understand why back 9 cart path only enjoyed the round but prefer the inks

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.

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.

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.

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

Driving Out East, The Woods is one of our favorite courses! Always worth the trip!

Nice Day, Nice Course just a little slow ,but still ok.

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

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.

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.
