Oak Tree/Spruce at Middle Island Country Club
About
Middle Island Country Club offers 27 holes of championship golf. It is one of Long Island's most popular public golf courses. It sits almost right at the center of the island, surrounded by the Lustengarten Nursery. The holes are divided into three nines and played as different 18-hole combinations. The Oak/Spruce Course begins with the shortest of the three nines, but there are some tricky doglegs that can make it play longer than what it says on the scorecard. Middle Island's Spruce nine was renovated in 2008, which added an island green on the par-4 seventh and more tee boxes to allow for women, seniors, and championship play. It's the most player friendly of the three nines, with wide fairways and generous greens that give you the freedom to grip it and rip it.

Golfer Reviews
Challenging but fun.
Course was extremely well kept, staff was pleasant and helpful. Spotted a beaver how cool is that?
Slow pace of play
Course was in good condition but the pace of play makes it not worth it. Guys waiting at the tee guys on the tee guys on the green. It was not worth the money
Memorial Day at Middle Island
Wet moring but this crazy club still let carts out. Course was in great shape. This was the best the course has looked in a few years. The management company is doing a terrible job with pro shop, clubhouse and food. The round was better than expected.
Conditions
Fairways and greens were acceptable. Sand traps are in horrible shape. This is a narrow course in many spots and they have allowed overgrowth of the trees -- on one hole, a good portion of the right side of the tee box is unusable due to overhanging branches. There are many other courses to choose from in this area, unless they put more effort into maintaining these issues, this course will not be worth playing.
So so
Horribly slow pace of play. Not a Ranger in sight. An uninteresting course but in decent shape.
Not Safe - Okay Golf
Golf was Okay. Maybe not worth the price. Also not entirely the safest parking area since my car was broken into. Ended up costing me more than just a tee time. No help from Staff.
