Dogwood/Oak Tree at Middle Island Country Club
Rating Snapshot
About
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.

Micc
Since taken over by Asians course clearly headed downhill, greens are not in good shape
Great winter golf
Greens are good, some of the rough is thin and traps are a mess but great deal for winter golf and no one on course.
Amazing scale
It looks amazing view
All staffs very kindly served
Condition is very good
Long fairway Not easy course
Very nice condition
For this time of year the course was in very nice condition. The greens ran true. Fairways were in good shape, We played Dogwood to Spruce.Pace was excellent as we played the round in just under 4hrs......
January 2020
Considering it’s January the course was still in very nice shape only issue I noticed was no one’s fixing divots and ball marks on green otherwise course would be great
Great conditions for January
Course is in great condition, got there early, and they allowed us out early. No complaints in the off season.
Good winter play
Played here 3 times in the last 2 weeks. All were ridiculously cheap hot deals. Except for the traps, course is in surprisingly good shape for this time of year. Look forward to a few more playable days and cheap deals.
Decent course - over priced IMO
MICC is reliable as far as playing a course in decent shape. Summer time prices are ridiculous compared the some courses you could play. Even in December on golf now it’s $40 for an afternoon tee time. Not bad but not great.
Great players course.
I caught a hot deal for around $20 in a cart for 18.. cant believe what i got for the value. Tricky greens that ran so well. Unbelievably long, compare some hole distances to blacks length. I am a single digit handicap couldn't recommend enough to go play. If your looking for a challenge, play the championship tees. The two nines i played were completely different. One involved dog leg lefts while the next 9 was reversed. Talk about having to have all shots in the bag..great place highly recommend, good luck.
Open course for the beginner golfer. Greens are consistent and are usually kept well
Nice course
Tee boxes Fairways are in good condition. Some hanging branches that hangout into fairway block shots makes course a little difficult. Staff is friendly.Good value for the money
Fair and challenging
I’ve been playing here off and on since the 80’s. It has always been one of my favorite tracks. I like that there’s less trees than there use to be which gives it a aesthetic beauty to the eye. Fairways and greens are always in good condition bunkers not so good need more sand..Every club in your bag will probably be used!!
Great conditions, Great Price
We played Oak Tree on the front nine and Dogwood on the back nine. Conditions were great. Some of the Par 5 wholes were a bit on the long side. A fun challenge. Price was also very attractive. Easy on, Easy off. I would definitely play there again.
Greens are terrible
I found that your course was in beautiful condition my only real issue that I had is that no one told me that your greens were Air rated anyone that plays golf know that putting is everything in golf I wish someone told me the greens were air rated I would have never have paid a lot of money to play on your course It should be the courses responsibility to notify anyone willing to play on your course that your greens have been air rated and if they are air raided you should reduce your price
