LaTourette Golf Course

Easy to hit fairways or find your ball if you don't. Greens where challenging and only 3 par 3's. some nice elevation changes and good lunch specials. What more can u ask for?

Typical Staten Island course. THEY DIDN'T HAVE ENOUGH CARTS!!. Had to wait an 1/2 hour past our tee time to get a cart. They have Two for Tuesdays so don't go on a Tuesday!! The round took 5 1/2 hours to complete. Like I said, typical Staten island course. Too crowded and too long of a round!! Just go to Jersey!!

Super friendly staff and well maintained greens made it a perfect golfing day.

Played this course in early morning of hot NYC summer day. Course is beautiful, serene, and scenic. Lots of elevation changes. I thought course played longer that posted from the "whites" judging from where I remembered tee makers placed in the past. Fairways are wide, so left and right tee shots can make it to the greens in regulation if you avoid the bunkers. Greens are challenging! They are big, fast and undulating. So, you need a superb short game to score well. I thought the fellows driving around the course with extra water was a nice touch on this hot day to keep the customers hydrated. Nice outer borough NYC golf course.

Every time I play here its great. Staff is very nice, clubhouse is cool, awesome sandwiches. Course is pretty well maintained. Really only thing I've seen is due to golfers not maintaining the green during play.

Course in well maintained. Greens are very good. Entertaining and not very difficult. Takes 4.5 to 5 hours to play.

This course was maintained well and was a fairly easy course with wide fairways and not many hazards in play. The fairways and greens were rock hard which is good for distance off the tee box because the ball gets a lot of roll but requires a lot of skill in spinning the ball in order to get it to sit on the green.

I booked a tee time for 8am on Friday. We were caught in Staten Island traffic and arrived 15 minutes late. We walked into the pro shop and without any eye contact were told by the custodian, "you're killim me." He went on to say I cancelled your reservation, you've been charged $20, and there's nothing he can do. I get it, I was late, but you just get the feeling they don't have any passion for their jobs or clientele at this place.

The course not far from the city. Course shape beautiful, staff friendly, including cafe restaurant staff. Yardage long, holes a bit challenging. Worth of play.

Played the course on 5/28/13. It was nicely maintained. The greens were surprisingly well maintained, and faster than i remember them in the past. It was a rainy day, so i'd like to see how much faster they would roll on a dry day. I would play here again.

I had booked a 7:59 tee time on a holiday. I can understand that the pace of play maybe slower due to the fact that some players might be inexperienced and may play slower. But to have a tee time for 8am and not get out on the course until 9 is inexcusable. The starter was rude to people waiting for an hour to tee off. In all my years golfing every time I play this course there is always a problem getting out on time.. What's the point of having a tee time and getting there early if you only gonna get out 30 to 40 min after your actual time. POOR MANAGEMENT!!

no backups which makes for an enjoyable round.everyone friendly and helpful.course in great shape.

Greens recently aerated, no mention of that until I reached the first green. Got a super rate thru Golf Now or I would have been a bit ticked off. All 18 greens were not much use for putting, but to be expected this early in the season. This course is known for 5+ hour rounds but got around in a little over 4 hours. I'll give it another shot in a few weeks, nice course overall.

Tee boxes need work. Fairways were pretty decent. Greens were aerated so difficult to putt.

I live a mile from the course and find it hard to get Tee Times. I am often frustrated at the price to play and getting good tee times. If you can get a discount rate then play the course, otherwise, do as I do, and drive to New Jersey where the courses are about the same in price, in better condition and easier to obtain a tee time. The course is crowded; there are too many outings, clubs and groups that take up a lot of tee times. Pace of play is slow because too many people with no game play from the tips when they shouldn't. Also, another important point to make is the courses in Staten Island never let players know they are working on the course, where as, in NJ the people in the club house or on their website will mention they are performing work on the course before you book a tee time, and they will often discount the price. Don't expect that here.

i just pay 30 with cart, this is the great value for money.
amazing , good job GolfNow. bravo

Should have been notified before making reservation that the greens were recently air-rrated

tee off 220 made the turn at 520pm ask the ranger at the first green to ask the group in front of us to pick up their pace of play they were already a full hole behind he said he knew they were behind but there was a two group backup at hole three so he wasnt going to say anything i asked him to check back later and he never did by the eleventh hole it was more the two holes and i had to say please pick up the pace of play to them well the sun was quickly going down and i was not to happy this is typical at latourette too many groups pushed out. if they come they will sell them a tee time at latourette

Be prepared for a long day. Pace of play is often slow. Despite that, it is a decent course with only a few difficult holes which means that if you can keep the balls in the fairway, you will score decently.

Overall course is well maintained. Tee box is often beat up a bit on a number of holes.

This is a favorite of mine, nice wide fairways in good condition. The only negatives here are; pace of play could be better almost 5hrs I would prefer around 4hrs and the 3rd green is shot due to the constant shade its in from the surrounding trees and that's not bad enough to keep me away. I look forward to the Doglegs on 6,8,10 and 18, elevation changes on 1,2,4,5,6,7,8,10,13,14,15 and 18. Enough Said.
