Slope N/A
Rating N/A

Middle Island Country Club offers 27 holes of championship golf. It is one of Long Island's most popular public golf courses. It sits almost right at the center of the island, surrounded by the Lustengarten Nursery. The holes are divided into three nines and played as different 18-hole combinations. The Oak/Spruce Course begins with the shortest of the three nines, but there are some tricky doglegs that can make it play longer than what it says on the scorecard. Middle Island's Spruce nine was renovated in 2008, which added an island green on the par-4 seventh and more tee boxes to allow for women, seniors, and championship play. It's the most player friendly of the three nines, with wide fairways and generous greens that give you the freedom to grip it and rip it.

Stuck behind multiple five person groups, rangers did absolutely nothing. The course itself is well maintained but for the amount of money it cost to play here it shouldn’t take almost 3 hours to get through the first 9 holes.

Can’t recommend this place take your business else where

Too slow

You need to tell people that are booking on Golfnow when there is a society day. It was so busy and hardly any of the groups could play golf, let alone respect the pace of play. We gave up after 14 holes as we were looking at a 5 hour round.

A well-kept secret in Central Suffolk County

I always love playing here. This course seems to bring out the best in me. Tree-lined and narrow. It forces me to focus on aim and concentration. It is a beautiful setting. Golfers I get paired with are shocked when I tell them I drive almost an hour to play there but it is well worth the ride. After 2:30 is a perfect time because I almost have the course to myself.
