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.

Good Course
Greens and in general, course is in good condition. Will play it again.
Great Value- excellent course!!!
Got a hot rate on a Friday afternoon through golfnow....and honestly couldn't have been happier. Even at full price...this course is a steal! You feel like you're playing in the sandhills of North Carolina rather than Long Island. The course is built through a pine forest...no homes on the course...very scenic and peaceful. Greens were in good shape- a touch slow- but not too bad. If in the area...take the time to get out on Middle Island like I did...you will not be disappointed!
Great Experience
Played Spruce and Oak. Both courses in great shape. Pro shop staff very friendly. Starter doesn't seem to like his job. Will definitely be back.
worth the ride
I was on tee box had issue at work . Told guy in proshop they put our clubs away said when u come back we get you right out and they did. Should be all you need to know . To often courses forget things happen and golf while important unless you on pga doesn't pay the bills.
A hidden gem
I was extremely pleased with my last round. The green were in great shape. Be forewarned, they look like they should break several feet but on 15 out of 18 greens straight at the cup should do you just fine.
The bunkers need some work for a crisp look on the edges. But let's face it, for a public course they would get trashed by people walking up the sides of the bunkers as opposed to walking in and out via the low points.
worth the ride
Nice course good condition finished in less than 4 hours a pleasure to play will come back
Nice layout
Nice lay out and the pace of play was good. PLayed the round in 3 hrs 20 min. Course was in great shape.
Good course but a little high proced
Course has always been great, good conditions. Since new ownership years ago it's been over priced unfortunately but worth a treat.
Challengin & interesting
Had a quick and pleasant round. Because of weather , course empty finished in 2 HRs
A great weather day in DEC. 2014 on the East Coast
Who knew we would have another great weather day in DEC. on the East Coast. Got there a little ahead of my tee time to loosen it was still crisp out in the mid AM. The pace of play was great only caught up to the group ahead on the 8th. hole and to my surprise the slower group let us play through on the turn. The shape of the course was as anyone would expect for this time of year in the east the bunkers were hard and most had water in them from the recent rain as I was in a few any way it was a good time for all and hopefully we'll have another warm spell
Happy Holidays and a happy & Healthy 2015 !
Bonus golf day in late Autumn
Middle Island goes from a very good golf experience to an excellent one when it is not crowded. The course is in excellent condition for any time of year and better than we expected for the last day of Nov. The course presents a challenge for all golfers. High handicappers can have a good time also. The water hole on Spruce is a great challenge and lots of fun. The GPS on the carts are a great help.
Waited on every shot
First...this is a great course, greens were incredible, and the new management is awesome...having said that 4 3/4 hrs, waiting on every shot is not acceptable given the price. You need rangers who will keep the players moving...we were actually held up all day by (2) twosomes....this is not ok...
Been a while since i played here; It was great!
It had been a year since i had been here and last time it seemed like it was on the decline, but i have to say the course looked great and it was very pleasant.
Long course, tight fairways
Title says it all. But I liked it and would play again.
the course is kept in great shape
I like playing here the course is kept in great shape especially spruce and oak ,dogwood not as good as other 2 but not bad.The course is long not one of these narrow short condo type courses,this was built in 1960,s when plenty of land to build.The carts have gps. I play in afternoons and have usally finished in 4hrs which is better than 6 hr round at bethpage.The clubhouse is old with few amenities but if you just want a good fast round of golf on a well kept and challenging course then check it out
Money well worth it!
Enjoyable course. Areas around green, especially beyond rough, could be better maintained. Bar area could use updating. Fortunately, twosome in front of me allowed me to play thru to finish round in 3 hours.
Pretty Nice Course
First time playing this course on Sunday, 8/24/14.
Good condition, very scenic, some very interesting holes with crazy pin placement. Front nine took 2 hours and 45 minutes and the staff couldn't care less. Played Dogwood on the back 9 in 1 and a half hours. Much more enjoyable pace. Overall I will not be playing this course again.
Middle Island
There was an outing going on, and we did not play more then 3 holes, and we turned around and tried a different course. When we finished the 9, the starter misinformed us and there was an even bigger delay. The staff was rude and unaccomadating. Your site never should have sold the time.
