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.

Solid no frills golf courses

The bad: Don't expect too much from the driving range, and if it rains do not expect to play Dogwood, and it may be walking only. The good: The courses are all decent and generally in fairly good shape - but nowhere near pristine. You can usually get a tee time, so it is a nice fall back when you can't find anything better.
The ugly: If you spray the ball off the tee or your 2nd shots it will be a very long day for you.

Great course / super friendly

Played 18 on a Sunday afternoon. Turned out that there was an outing that day too, and the starter did a great job working us in and getting us out early. Probably would be better to have notified us before reserving, but overall worked out ok.
