Spruce/Dogwood at Middle Island Country Club
Rating Snapshot
About
Located almost in the center of Long Island, the aptly named Middle Island Country Club is one of the area's most popular public golf courses. The 27-hole layout is divided into three nines that are played in 18-hole combinations. The Spruce/Dogwood begins with a front nine that underwent a major renovation in 2008. An island green was added to the par-4 seventh and another major addition was new tee boxes to accommodate women, seniors, and championship play. Middle Island Country Club's Spruce nine boasts generous fairways and large greens where there is plenty of room to grip it and rip it. Take advantage of the scoring opportunities on this nine because the Dogwood nine gets much more challenging. The back nine is a formidable test with narrows fairways and greens with surprising breaks that will have you wondering how you "just missed" it.

Course in very good shape
Staff extremely professional and helpful
Will definitely play again
Middle Island Country Club
I have been playing here for years and this is the best shape I have seen it in, great layout and challenging.
Nice track
The golf is very nice. The clubhouse and grill room leave something to be desired. All in all, I'd play here again. And again
Mislead
Knowing it's that time of year for aerating I called the course to inquire if they had done so yet. I was told they did the greens on the one course and they weren't using that one, and that the others were fine. Unfortunately when we arrived we found that the entire course had been aerated and the greens were terrible. I wish I would have been told that in advance. Overall it's a good course and a decent value.
Sandy
The greens were covered in sand. With the damp conditions the sand would stick to the ball.
Well kept course
Played here many times and the course is always is good shape. Considering it was March in NY was happy with the way the greens were. Would definitely play again.
Very early in the year and the greens were a bit beat up, but that was expected. Fairways were in good condition.
Not bad for a winter round
First time playing here.
3- nine hole courses.
I enjoyed the layout and you can't expect much for a February round.
I can see that in season the course would be nice to play.
I understand they are quite pricey tho.
This place is ancient tho.
I would not pay $60 in season to play here
Great value
Course was great. Finished in 3 hours w/foursome. Staff very helpful and friendly. Only drawback was weather. The greens were soaked due to prior rain.
All to myself
Last day of the year had the course to myself. That was strange. It was great condition considering it is winter. Hope the snow never comes so I can play all winter.
Plays Long and Some holes tight
I was lucky to sneak in a round of golf in December. The weather was sunny with wind.
There are three 9 hole courses at Middle Island Country Club. I played from Spruce to Dogwood.
Upon arrival I was greeted by a friendly staff member. There was complimentary coffee and tee.
The tee boxes are in great condition, and the fairways were perfect condition. Most of the greens rolled well but still some signs from aeration on a few holes. I played this course several times this year. The only work that should be done is adding sand to the traps and edging them. If this was done the course would receive 5 stars from me. Overall its a great value and challenging for all levels of golfers.
The course plays long. If you are not a single handicap you should play from the whites.
Affordable
great fun at an affordable rate. friend and I met two singles and had a great round playing with them. weather was as good as the company, could not ask for a better October round. thanks. dogwood to oak tree .
