Nice Layout

Fun layout. Course management is important ie: when not to hit driver. Tight fairways but nice variety. Score-able. Lots of trees.

Tee boxes need a serious facelift.

Rough needs to be shorter especially this time of year with leaves falling. Often difficult to find the ball after a decent shot.

Pace of play was great (Monday, 11:30am).

First Time Playing

Great pace, overall great shape, tee boxes need work.

Never played here before. Besides about 5 or 6 tee boxes that were completely dirt, the course was in great shape. If they could fix those tee boxes I would give it 5 stars.

Great course, great shape

What a day, and had a great time. The front 9 are very challenging; in my opinion (I am a 24 handicap, lol) the back 9 presents a better experience for a golfer like myself. BUT overall, just a fantastic round.

Always Enjoyable

I always like playing here and I enjoy the friendly staff. They need to spread out the foursomes more. I had the misfortune of being sandwiched between obnoxiously slow milennials in front of us and equally obnoxious milennials behind us who played up on us and made offensive comments.

Not going back

Pretty disappointed to see the course in WORSE condition than it was in 2020, and the same condition it was in back in April. You can get away with that in April when the season has barely opened. But to have tee boxes that are simply mud without one blade of grass on them is a joke. Just shows they don't care. For that price, you're better off driving a half hour further for better conditions. Bummer.

Best course in Queens

Great layout, well kept greens, solid value. Only complaint is that a few of the tee boxes are eaten up, not surprising for this late in the season.

Hidden gem

Never played in Queens before. Just discovered this course, played it once and came back for more right away. Not an easy course but, very interesting layout. Nice staff, clean facilities.
