Good Course

We were a threesome and waited at about 7 holes, still finished the round in a little over 4 hours. Course is in amazing shape, greens were in great shape but not too challenging.

The course is in good shape late in the season for a public golf course. The fairways and rough are dry and hard. The greens are in good shape.

Short but narrow.

I have been playing Dunwoodie for over 5 years now and it has not changed too much. The course is pretty short but the fairways are narrow and the greens are small. The greens are in good shape as are most of the fairways. The course is hilly but is an easy walk in my opinion. The driving range is great and the practice greens are nice but a little small.

Short Course but taken care of

The greens and fairways were in good shape for the most part. A few holes with fairway under repair.
Tight course with a few open holes.

Decent course but short

Played dunwoodie for the first time on a Tuesday evening, tee'd off at 4pm, and finished at 7, as a 2some with carts. Pace of play would most likely be the only reason I would return. Short course with not much going on, but for 40 bucks and a 3hr round, its for sure worth it.

Decent public course

Course was is good shape. New carts are nice. pace of play is a little slow, but what can you expect from a county course? For around $30 for a hot deal it's a good value.

Moderately challenging nearby course

The course is in very good shape, especially the greens. It is always a pleasant sight to see the mgmt watering the course, but it might be best to do that at night. The front 9 has some tight, tree-lined fairways and some high hills. The back 9 plays longer but more forgiving. Most surprising was the sugar-like sand in the green-side bunkers. Parking is free. And the price was a very good bargain.

Nice course-poor greens

Fairways and tee boxes well kept. Was shocked to see sprinklers kick on midday as I was on the green. Greens needed to be cut and not watered midday. Pace of play was very slow. Overall though, the course was nice, especially the fairways. I'd play again for sure.

Short but challenging

Although the course plays to a little over 5500 yds it still presents a nice challenge. The greens were in excellent shape and the layout was interesting, moreso on the front 9. Would definitely play here again.

Confidence Builder

The easiest of the Westchester County public courses to get an early weekday teetime. Have played multiple Fridays teeing off before 7am and finishing in 3:30 to 3:45. Definitely slower later. The first hole, a par 4, must surrender a fair number of aces as it is easily reached with a driver as long as you don't mind challenging the trap running parallel to the front of the green (and even then there's an opening on the left.# Holes 2 thru 5 will basically determine how your round will go as these are the Amen Corner of the course. Two is, I think, an especially challenging par 4 because the fairway narrows to your landing zone and you are dead when left and especially right. The green is slightly below the fairway, and you'd better not miss right, but there's a huge tree left to challenge your approach shot. Three requires you play the ball left of center because it will drain downhill right, and then it's a short shot to an elevated green. Four is a long 4 that requires a solid drive and take an extra club for that iron approach going uphill. Five is a slight dogleg right downhill where players often bag the driver and try and coax a 5 or 7 wood into the smallish landing zone. After that you will get 5 par 3s and 3 5s in the remaining holes. So you can absolutely make hay. 3 of the first 5 on the back 9 are par 3s. On 11, a dogleg left par 5, keep your drive center/right and continue to keep your ball on the right side so that you have a clean shot at the green on approach. On 13, just hit a club that you can knock 160-180 yards out. 17 and 18 (a par 3, of course# can provide great views of the Manhattan skyline on clear days. Your approach shot on 17 will play longer than it looks thanks to the ridge in front of the green, Definitely a walkable course, though the front nine is hilly and 9 is a huge uphill climb followed by a long walk to the tenth tee. Greens are fairly unchallenging, with 3, 6 and 9 the slickest. A fun course for a quick round #if you don't mind getting out ultra early) and a low score possibility. Can't remember it ever being buggy in any way. You may see fox or turkey here. Love playing this course at twilight.

disappointment lurks here...

even with the friendly staff and the cordial grounds crew hovering over you as you tee off, this course left much to be desired. The greens are in dire straits. I understand this being a public course but c'mon! This course features huge brown patches all throughout, compacted bare earth (SOLID), beat up greens and then the unforgiving treelines as well as the blind drives... I don't think I've ever lost this many balls. Never again. Not unless there is a regime change here. I played at Mosholu the day before and Saxon woods the week prior... those courses run circles around this one.
