Atrocious

Where is the money going when we pay for a round? It is not going to maintaining the course, I can tell you that!

Great potential

First most tee boxes were dirt. Not acceptable. Doesn’t look like anyone fixes ball marks on greens.

Tee boxes and greens are very close to each other on some holes.

However, Great layout & 5 hr round was not bad for public course.

Same old forest park

Nothing too terrible other than hard as a rock and often bare tee boxes. If you get a deal, it's not bad due to a decent course layout but paying full price to play here might leave you disappointed when you are playing on somewhat torn up greens (due to folks never repairing their ball marks).

Slow Play and others hitting your ball

Slowest round here today almost 5 hours. Group in front had a few members who never played golf before and didn’t know where to put cart so always in the way and taking too long. Additional frustration from having my ball hit by others on two separate holes and having to play a lost ball. Not sure if I will come back here.

NOT terrible for an NYC course, but...

I wish the starter... a) asked players to fix their divots and ball marks on the green. If you are a golfer reading this you should KNOW how to do these two things in order to play golf. (takes 20 seconds to learn on a youtube video). The green wouldn't be terrible if players did this. It's part of the game!

You should also not have 4 foursomes behind you if you are on the 2nd green. The starter, Bob, needs to hold the groups back and tell them when to tee off. It is a short course & there will be delays, but you can alleviate some of the stoppages by doing this which makes it a more pleasurable experience for all players.

No fun playing behind a Sixsome!

Pace of play on the course was totally out of control.

Lots of frustration and arguments amongst groups.

The Starter does a good job, but someone needs to be on the course policing slow play, mulligans and groups of more than four!

It's a Muni Course in NYC. Can't expect too much

I mainly go here because it's so close and the best out of all the muni's in NYC. Pace of play was slow due to a group that was mucking around. Not the course's fault. Called the pro shop and they dealt with it perfectly.

Remember, NYC courses. have a lot of foot traffic and the rates for Muni's are cheap. If you're looking for pristine conditions, you have to go out to long island or new jersey.

Go to course

Fairways and greens in great shape considering we have been in a drought all summer. Tee boxes burnt out but this is expected in August. Overall love this course except for pace of play. I don't know why we still have walkers, carts should be mandatory. Or if you're walking you should be the only one looking for your ball especially when the other players are on the opposite side of the fairway. Just drop and play on.

Play anywhere else

Had a 20 foot birdie putt but green was so bad ball completely stopped 1/3 way to hole … 2 holes back to back around 410 from the tips one is par 5 ne t is par 4. Last hole was par 5 400 yards. The whole course greens teeboxes are a mess… 55 dollars with cart and golfnow discount is so not worth it. Round isn’t worth 10 dollars to play. Please fix this course
