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.

Marathon
Was happy to be back playing golf for first time in 3 weeks, played with my son and friend of his. Teed off on Dogwood, first 2 holes breezed until we ran into two foursomes that were playing as if qualifying for US Open. Long boring story short, never offered to let us play through, 4 1/2 hours for 18 holes as threesome...painful. Course is decent shape, Spruce was nicer than Dogwood. Giving it another shot Sunday if weather holds out. Hope they hired a ranger by then!
Nice Greens
Course in good shape for early in our season . Greens are especially in great shape . Kudos to the staff for a job
Well done
Solid Round!
We had the entire course to ourselves on a nice day. Fairways were well maintained and the greens were in solid condition despite being March. Some challenging holes but there are holes to be rewarded with as well. Fun course, would come back at play 18.
Almost worth the $
Been playing here for years! I will only play when I get a HOT DEAL! they seem to be putting $$ into the clubhouse with some renovations thank god because it was falling apart. Their 9 hole Spruce course is by far their best and easiest course.
Oak and Dog have way too many areas rite off the fairway that are patchy and not maintained well at all. There is no rough on these courses, just fairway then dirt and gravel where rough should be. They have been increasing their pricing for the past 4-5 years with the new management. If they charged $40 for a round of 18 with a cart then it would be worth it. But they try and get $60+ based on time of day. Simply put if you want to play off spotty hardpan fairways and pay top dollar you will enjoy this place! It is so disappointing to hit a drive pin straight and when you get to your ball see it’s in the middle of the fairway and your hitting off hardpan.
Spruce course is nothing like their other 2! Spruce is wide open, It has Well maintained fairways and rough. You can tell that they take care of this course much better than the other 2. I would even ask if you could just replay Spruce for your 18 holes.
It is such a shame Because if they put some money to dedicate better irrigation and trim trees so you get more sun on the Dog and Oak courses it would be a premiere club. They have some stiff competition with other golf courses within a 15-20 mile radius so there is an abundance of golfers they would be able to capitalize on but until they take care of Dog and Oak like they do Spruce you will leave here thinking you got robbed for the price they charge. Hope this gets to management and they do change up how they care for ALL their courses and not just 1 of 3. Best of luck hope this helped and remember unless it’s a HOT DEAL I would pass this up to play at another club rite around the corner where every hole is beautiful and well taken care of.
Over booked tee time by Golfnow
I made a reservation at this course. They told me tee time was over booked mistakenly. I paid regular price for playing golf. They were not excused and asked me same price as golf course prepared. I had no choice to leave that place because I drove to come this course about an hour. It was very sad moment to go no where.
Very good condition
I've played this course numerous times and like the track very much. The fairways and tee boxes were in good shape considering this time of year. The greens were in excellent condition and it was a pleasure to putt on them. They ran very true and quick. The Staff here are always excellent and they let us out a little earlier than on tee time. If you haven't tried this course,I suggest you try it.

Middle Island Country Club didn’t seem to be very well kept. I think this could just be due to it being the beginning of the golf season. I got it on a “hot deal” of $17 18 holes and a cart. I feel that overall, it was just very bleak compared to other courses in the area. I would not recommend this course unless you got in on a “hot deal”.
Nice challenging course
Nice layout but not easy
Championship course
Good maintenance
Nice staffs
If you athletic golfer?!!!
Challenge this course
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
