About

Holes 18
Type Semi-Private
Par 73
Length 7132 yards
Slope 131
Rating 74.4

Pine Hills Country Club sprawls cross 165 acres of Long Island's protected Pine Barrens. The golf course plays long at over 7,000 yards from the back tees but it is a playable and fair test. It is challenging as well with quite a bit of water and sand coming into play throughout. Towering, mature pines also line narrow fairways. One of the most difficult holes is the par-4 11th. This dogleg left is one of the many holes with water and it also features a green that is severely sloped from back to front. While the golf course is the main attraction, Pine Hills is also known for having the area's best public practice facility. The club boasts a driving range with target greens, a putting green with a 9-hole practice course, and a chipping green with a greenside sand trap.

Lonely round

Booked round at Pine Hills and in their defense it was Easter Sunday. The required amount of players was one. I arrived 20 minutes early and the threesome​ I was informed went out 15 minutes ago. The round was enjoyable but I had to play through several groups skipping holes as I made my way around the course. My question is, does the course have the any responsibility to honor the configuration of the tee time reservation?

Wide open course

Pine Hills is a nicely laid out course . The long sprawling greens are forgiven enough to give a beginners and intermediates a chance to compete.
Overall had a good day

Pine Hills Country Club is Awesome!!!!

This course plays true and is very well maintained. Great set up and pace of play is good.....especially weekdays. Weekends are busy but pace moves well then too. Get there early and practice your putting or Hit the Driving Range and they have a great area to practice your chip and putt too.
The more you play there the more you grow to Love It!!!!!

The pro-shop staff is very knowledgeable and truly Friendly.

Played two times this month of February and the course is in great shape already.

Looking forward to a great season ahead.

Good value. Course in great shape.

Not a negative thing to say. Greens rolling very well and true. Fairways in excellent shape. Leaves were an issue on some holes but it was after a couple of windy days and couldn't be helped. At the end of the day, a couple of kids were seen on three wheeled motorized bikes whizzing around the back nine. We told the shop and they responded as well as the property maintenance staff to chase them off. Looked like they had hit one green recently and was repaired. Saw two military aircraft flying low and slowly crossing the 6th fairway which was interesting. This course always less windy than any other in the area. Had the course to ourselves starting at noon.

Great experience at Pine Hills. Staff was very friendly, grass driving range! Short chipping range and putting green perfect for warming up. Course was in great condition.

Great experience

Where to begin...how about the exceptional practice area. Has everything you need to help your game. Tremendous putting green, chipping area, bunkers and grass driving range. The course itself, tee to green is in perfect condition as always.
Finish it off at JC's , which could possibly be one of the best restaurants on Long Island.
