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.

Super expensive, terrible pace of play

Super expensive, unfriendly staff and no course management for pace of play. We got out early, there were a few groups holding everyone up and no ranger to be found. When we got to the turn, the rangers were in their carts having a chat. No help. Not worth the $100

Awesome course

Finally got to play the 9 hole, oak tree, and just like spruce and dogwood it was great! Course is very well kept and laid out perfectly. Awesome for intermediate players like myself because of the fact it’s one of the more open courses in the area.

Pretty good but layout isn't great

I can see the new management is trying hard to improve the course (new carts, ball cleaners, and etc.) but the layout doesn't work. Some halls are too narrow and hilly... Holes are too close to each other so you constantly hear people yelling fore and see other people looking for balls in your hole. It's hard to escape from his course without seeing a ball or two flying over your head.
