Well maintained with good mix of holes

Second time playing. Par fives are long and tough. Uphill holes are really tough. But on the other hand, downhill holes are really fun. Greens are in great shape. Stay out of the long thick rough very close to the greens.

Cart Path ONLY

It was 90 degrees out and they had cart path only. No where did it say that when you booked the reservation. Paying for a cart you have to leave a Mike away is dumb.

Hot day, played pretty bad but it was still enjoyable because the staff was excellent and course was challenging and in good condition considering the summer drought.

Not great

Course in horrible shape had us be cart path only because they haven’t been able to water the fairways.

The greens are silly. Golf is hard enough there’s no reason for impossible greens.

Overpriced

Played for the first time because I got a hot deal during the week. Too much $$ on the weekend. Course was in pretty poor shape. Looks like it hasn’t been watered all season. Layout is hit or miss. Some nice holes, but some pretty weird layouts on a couple holes (for example #9 which is 45 degrees up the entire way).

Cart path only?

C’mon NYCC. Cart path only designations for dry fairways is nonsense. Needs to be disclosed at booking. 90 degrees would have been fine.

Terrific time!

The first time I played here was very early in the season after a looong winter. Taking the recent dry weather into consideration, the course conditions are fantastic. I honestly don’t know how they do it. The greens are perfect and rolling very fast. I can’t remember the last time I 3 putted so many times. The staff was terrific as always. I’m so glad they allow walking on this course because it’s a great workout.

I’ll be back soon.

2 problem holes

The 9th and 10th holes are often sited as poor. The 9th is a par 4 steeply uphill. It is very very steep. It looks like it needs a chairlift for skiing to get to the top. The landing area for the tee shot is limited and the second shot to the green is fully blind. Once you’ve made it to the the top any putting beyond the flag faces a huge downhill putt that will roll right off the green and head back down the fringe a long way…..feels absurd. The 10th hole is an exact severe downhill fairway requiring a shot to a somewhat level landing area…hard to execute. The approach to this green, which can still be quite downhill requires a lofty wedge to get it to stop. Too much downhill altogether on this hole. I have made par on both the 9th and 10th many times but find the degree of elevation (9th) and downhill (10th) far exceeding normal slopes. There is a highly accommodating staff here, the food and upkeep are excellent. The golf course is compelling and finished with a fantastic and gorgeous par 5 eighteenth hole. Worth the trip to play and I always return again and again.

I’ve been playing this course for years and it feels like it’s starting to go downhill. The staff in the pro shop are not friendly or accommodating. Initially there were no range balls to hit because they were still in the process of being collected. There was a wait on every hole with our round clocking in at 4hrs50min. Additionally for $120 bucks one would expect there to be grass on the tee boxes instead of hacked up sand.
