Phillip J. Rotella Memorial Golf Course

Played this course for first time in several years. Much improved since I last played. Fairways are lush, tee boxes are good and sand is okay. Greens are healthy but a bit slow. It's got some very good holes and a couple of strange ones. A par 3 on the back 9 has been converted to a challenging par 4 with a layup drive, 3 wood, or less and a shot over water to green well guarded by a big bunker. Overall it's a pretty nice track and worth playing. I'll be back again.

could have been cheaper on a Friday eeeeeeeeeeeeee

beautiful part of New York to play in. Fun course, with all kinds of elements: Elevation, water, plenty to think about while you look for the right club to select.

The course is always good but the ranger were letting people play slow for the hour of the day .....

Played Rotella on 11/9. The guy inside the pro shop (maybe the pro?) couldn't have been nicer. Knowing we never played here, he told us about a few tricky holes and gave us some tips along with a course map. Pace of play could have been better, it was a nice day for November so maybe everyone was trying to get in their last round of the year. They were rebuilding #7 so it played as a par 3 instead of 4, but overall it was a great value for a solid course. Very enjoyable round.

Play this course a couple of times per year. Greens were surprisingly fast considering recent rain. Some hole placements were tougher than "usual" especially with trying to keep weekend play moving

I was only able to play 10 holes due to rain but course offers a shorter overall yardage for the red tee but still challenging with the water hazzards, narrow fairways & bunker placements

Well maintained and well run golf course. The burgers from the restaurant were great too. To keep the course moving they advised us to take our lunches to-go and eat as we played or we would add hours to our round as you must fall back several groups when you stop. It's a strict policy, but it keeps things moving well.

Played this course a couple of times before and loved it, however I was very disappointed this time around. We got stuck behind a group of 8 playing in front of us!! That is just ridiculous! Pace was so slow for obvious reasons that we had not even finished 15 holes after 5 hours! No rangers on the course either.

positive the course was in excellent shape
the pace of play was slow
The ranger yelled at us for pace of play when we were on the heals of a twosome has a foursome.
The bartender is nasty. Will not go in there again
Golf now was suppose to offer us lunch with our round and then the course would not honor it. So not a good experience

Excellent conditions. Beautiful day. Course Pro is very helpful.

I've played this course many times over the years and it is always in great shape. Yesterday, the course was in terrible shape. The tee boxes were all chewed up. The greens had plenty of unrepaired divots (not the fault of the course I know) and spike marks all over the place. The faiways needed some mowing. I couldn't believe how horrible the course was. Like I said, I am always pleased with the course conditions here, but this was next level disappointment.

Course was in excellent shape for mid august. Played in about 4 hrs on a friday morning, would have been faster, we were bunched up a little on the first 3 holes, but no backups.

Front nine holes need repaired ....... Around hole
But back nine hole is better front.....

Nice course built into the Ramapo mountains. Course is in great shape.

One of my favorite courses, as I started last year, I have been here a few times. I like this course a lot of my skill level. Its not too hard, not too long, aside from hole 6 which is very long and uphill and cant see the flag until you 80 yards away from the hole (hardest hole on course).
Its always been one of the best maintained courses I go to, so I know I dont have to worry about that. The only thing I can knock on it is that I never see a ranger pushing the speed of play when I go. A couple times now I've gone behind a foursome playing the opposite of ready golf.
But never the less, the experience is enjoyable and the course has some good golf now rates, and even twighlight rates, i believe its $29 after 4PM
Will remain one of my favorite courses, at least until I become consistently better and demand tougher coursers, but for now this one is still plenty tough

Inconsistent greens, overall conditions rough didn't see beverage cart till the 9th hole.

Played 7 holes and had to leave due to the unbelievably slow play. Took 2:30 to play those 7 holes. We got to the par 3 5th hole where there were 12 people waiting on the tee box. We called the pro shop and they sent a ranger out who did absolutely nothing. The facilities were horrible altogether not just the slow play I will never go back here in my life. They wouldn't give us a course credit and honestly I wouldn't play even if they did. Course was in ok shape but when you wait a half hour every shot it doesn't even matter. Repeat do not play here ever. Ever. Ever. Worst golf experience ever and this is the first review I've ever done. Never play here.

I booked my tee time thru Golf Now for a round at Rotella. It was not prepaid and I had to pay at the course. The head golf pro sold me my ticket and I assumed that I would be paired with three more people. However, when I got to the first tee, the starter told me that I would be playing alone. I asked him if there were any twosomes out there that I could join and he said there were only foursomes. I told him that I did not want to be a single waiting on a foursome but he said there was no one else to send me out with. So there I was, sandwiched in between two foursomes. I played through one foursome and found myself waiting on another foursome and there was absolutely no where to go! It was boring and also very dangerous as the foursome of men that I played through behind me were now mad that they let me through and started hitting into me. Still there was no where for me to go and I felt like a duck in a shooting gallery! It was a horrible experience and if the head golf pro knew that there would be no one to pair me with, he should never have sold me a ticket! Nothing against the golf course itself, which was in pretty good overall shape. Hey Rotella staff, you should not be sending out singles alone!!! Hopefully this review will spare someone else from having to go through a miserable round like I had.

Course in good shape, staff extremely friendly. Felt like a private club with the exception being food and beverage. Was impossible to get a sandwich or a beer. They didn't serve hot food on a Saturday morning until 11 am?
