About

Holes 18
Type Semi-Private
Par 73
Length 7132 yards
Slope 131
Rating 74.4

Pine Hills Country Club sprawls cross 165 acres of Long Island's protected Pine Barrens. The golf course plays long at over 7,000 yards from the back tees but it is a playable and fair test. It is challenging as well with quite a bit of water and sand coming into play throughout. Towering, mature pines also line narrow fairways. One of the most difficult holes is the par-4 11th. This dogleg left is one of the many holes with water and it also features a green that is severely sloped from back to front. While the golf course is the main attraction, Pine Hills is also known for having the area's best public practice facility. The club boasts a driving range with target greens, a putting green with a 9-hole practice course, and a chipping green with a greenside sand trap.

Nice layout, well maintained

Played on a weekday afternoon with my wife for a very enjoyable golf round with a great deal on golfnow. The greens were in good shape and pace of play was decent. There are some flat open holes in the front and then there are those tight course management geared holes that surprise you in the back nine. Overall a very good course without being too stressful, and the club hourse restaurant has excellent food and freindly service.

Mid-level course. Mid-level price.

Below average greens and tee box condition given that it is only June. Bunker sand somewhat bare in some spots. Grass Range. Worth it at $50 a head.

First Time Playing

Choose to play somewhere instead.

Pine Hills could be a great golf course if they would only have better greens. The greens need to be rolled or something and need to be cut. They are bumpy and slow and even slower because of no true roll. A guy in my foursome stopped going there last year because of the greens. He was hopping they fixed them this year and they haven’t. All I know is that I won’t be returning to Pine Hills this year and don’t recommend the course.

Great Course

Great course for the money. Fairways and greens great condition, #6 is a temporary green, however way told regular green will be open within a month or so. Plenty if space at driving range, has practice sand trap, huge putting green, chipping green. Great restaurant and bar on site. Only negative may sound silly, but onlyhas cold water jugs on 4 holes and drink(beer) cart doesn't seem to be on regular schedule. Didn't see one at all yesterday. On hot days especially weekdays bring your own.

Very enjoyable round, little water, a few turns and quick greens.

Nice roomy layout with character, not too long, well maintained and good bunkers. Fast greens demand attention to putting. Do not put down hill. Very enjoyable round and a good comfortable pace (afternoons). Nice equipment, nice clubhouse, nice driving range, nice practice greens for both putting and chipping. Reasonable price and an all around good time for sure.

This course is a average test of abilities

My partner and I lucked out after booking on golf now the day before.
For whatever the reason,we were the only two there for the first hour and we breeezed through in about three hours.

The course has enough hazards to be challenging.

aeration made putting sometimes difficult. Front nine played in 1 1/2 hours. Back nine was 2 1/2 hours.

Good deal!

This course was pretty good. Fairways are not so difficult, but greens are normally protected by many bunkers. Longer than average (about 6500 yds).

Great Value!

Pine Hills was in very good shape. The staff was very accommodating and it was extremely pleasant after the round going into JC's and having a drink and a fabulous burger. There was a temporary green on #5 but that didn't matter. The golf staff, restaurant / bar staff was superb. The only complaint is there was no water on the course in the water coolers. Other than that, it was a great day for golf and any day on the golf course is better than a day at work! Super value too by booking as a resident online with GolfNow. Thanks!

great weather, good friends, good course

Beautiful day at end of Apr. Greens in good condition and rolling rather quick. Fairways needed cutting but it did not impact the game. Teed off at 1 pm and finished at 5:45. A bit slow but for $23, whose complaining. Would definitely return with a hot deal.

I had a lot of fun. Course allows you to hit creative shots. Greens roll true and are fair (not overly ungulated).
