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.

Awesome course

Course conditions were absolutely amazing. The only complaint were the inconsistent greens where we played spruce first and the greens were wet and slow. Then we played Oak and the greens were dry and fast. The course was gorgeous, well kept and I would certainly play this again!

Overpriced

Hopefully they can keep up the maintenance with the new management. $95 is an insane price for the conditions. Doesn’t help that nobody can fix a ball mark.

Fair

I don’t normally leave a review but hoping this gets some attention. My group and I felt the Tee boxes needed help.The fairways should have been in better shape considering all the rain we have had recently. In most cases it was like hitting off of hard pan with a fine layer of grass. Ball was not sitting up. By no means am I in the fairway on every hole. But when I am, I would like an advantage of my ball sitting up. Recent aeration still making putts difficult. Maybe there should have been a discount or warning before booking. Other than that pace was good, sand traps were well maintained and Staff was great.
