Another top NY State Course

NY State seems to take golf a step above NJ. Everything about this course is top notch. A step below being private.

Well worth it

New York State golf courses are very well known for playability and condition. Similar to bethpage. I think this course cares and maintains its facilities very well. Highly recommended.

Unprofessional and Hostile Communication from Staff

I reached out regarding a golf club listing posted by this golf course, and was met with an incredibly unprofessional, hostile response over a simple, polite negotiation attempt. Rather than responding respectfully or declining, the individual went on a personal tirade complete with insults and condescending remarks that had absolutely no place in any customer interaction, let alone one representing a golf facility.

If this is the kind of behavior endorsed or tolerated by staff here, I’d be extremely hesitant to give this course my business. Golf is a sport rooted in class, etiquette, and sportsmanship values clearly not reflected in my experience.

Do better.
