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.

Always improving.

Nice to see the ownership consistently spending money to revamp both the course and the club house amenities. Could lose a few more trees to allow some more sunlight in certain areas to aid with the grass growth. Overall solid layout and greens were rolling great.

Decent Value But Pack Lunch

The course was in good shape, including greens, and the staff were super friendly. The beverage cart only came by twice and didn’t have any food. There were only hot dogs at the bar. Overall, decent value.

Did not play

Turns out they had a 200 person outing going out just before us

Would have been nice to know that ahead of time

We did not want to play a 5+ hour round so we requested a refund which was provided

Terrible Greens, no cart service!

The greens are currently (mid August 2024) in terrible condition… we were trying to get a morning tee time locally at the last minute on the night before and this course was the only one that was available. The only reason we can figure it out is that the condition of the greens was keeping other knowledgeable locals away. It’s a nice layout, pace of play was really good, and the staff was very friendly and accommodating. But I’m not going back until someone can verify for me that they’ve repaired the greens. Also, I was hoping and expecting that we might be able to get some beverages and snacks while on the course, but we never saw a cart person; Not a game changer, but definitely disappointing.
