Middle Island Country Club sits almost at the center of Long Island and has been one of the area's most popular public golf courses since first opening in 1965. The 27-hole course is divided into three nines that are played in different 18-hole combinations. The entire layout was carefully carved from 225 acres of the Lustengarten Nursery. Middle Island's Dogwood/Oak combination features narrow fairways lined with trees. The greens on the front nine are the most challenging of any of the three nines. They have subtle breaks that leave many golfers wondering how they "just missed" it. The Oak nine is almost as tough, but you will get a slight break. It requires careful course management since there are many doglegs that can make it play longer than what's indicated on the scorecard.

Nice course

This is one of my favorite tracks. One thing that is an issue is the proliferation of crab grass in the rough and a much less than satisfactory condition of the sand bunkers. The course fee is similar to others in the area but the trap conditions are not good. Soft in spots hard pan in others and a lot of large rocks in the trap especially on the Oaktree.

Great day

There were some daunting holes for a bunch of seniors. Several very long par Fours and 190 yard par 3 were a bit much. Otherwise it is a wonderful golf course. We played in 4 hours and the condition of the course was very good. The bunkers need a little work . We will definitely be back.

Nice Course

A bit pricey for the value, but I like the fact that the holes are not similar and layout is varying.

3 Hroup backup

I know it was Fathers Day and EVERYONE was out. On the 3rd hole a ranger did come out. There was 3 groups on the hole with a 4th right behind. Unfortunately it didn’t change pace of play.
