Smithtown Landing Better than Ever

Smithtown Landing pumped a bunch of money into the course in the last few years. It was allows one of my favorites and is even better now. Cant wait to see what else they will be improving next Spring.

Disappointed in SL . Not what I expected

I have played this course for about 30 years . Have always enjoyed playing SL as the Mgt. has always done a great job in keeping the course in great shape and green fees that I always thought was a fair price . . I don’t know what changed this year but to Charge over $ 70.00 for a weekday round in the afternoon for a course in this condition is ridiculous . Not to mention the 5 hour round . This course should be no more than a $ 40.00 fee with these conditions and at that price I am being generous . In looking at other reviews I see several other people feel the same as I do . . Like others I have said take your money and play other courses right now .

Tee boxes are supposed to have grass

Course is a disgrace..

Almost half the tee boxes are dirt. Literally not a blade of grass..I was informed by 2 staff members this was due to the drought. Did they drought also cause the boxes to lack a single level spot to tee the ball ,?

Burnt out fairways. Hardpan everywhere. Pot holes the size of basketballs along cart path. Greens littered with weeks of unrepaired or maintained ballmarks.

Again, was informed the drought caused this and the conditions were the same everywhere. Really ? I've played 30+ courses on long island and another dozen from CT up to Mass where amidst the drought they.managef to find a way to grow and water grass.

Add in herding people off every 8 minutes like cattle by the starter who likes to yell at groups to hurry and tee off when the group ahead is barely 200 yds out and you have the makings for what I describe as literally the worst track I played on long island in 30 years.

Shame. This used to be a decent place to play a round. Spend your day and money elsewhere and you will have made a wise decision.

Not coming back again sadly

I’ve been playing here since I was a kid, and after 22 years of playing here I don’t plan on coming back again. I went out as a solo on a Saturday and I walked off the course after playing about 5 holes in 2 hours. I didn’t see a single ranger out here moving people along, and it was about a 15-20 min wait at the tee box then another 10 min once you’re trying to hit up to the green because people are so slow. They course wouldn’t refund me my full purchase so I’ll have to take it up with my bank. Absurd to see how little they care about the golfers there, they just want to pack the course as much as possible.

$70 DOG TRACK…. Go elsewhere

8 minute tee times, DEAD tee boxes, useless starters, people everywhere, and $70!!!!!!!!!
This place is the most horribly run golf course. The tee boxes are dead, theres 3 to 4 groups on every hole and when you call the pro shop to find out why it takes 3+hours to play 9 holes, “its just busy”.
No its not just busy, and no every course doesnt have 8 minute tee times, just you bozos. If you’re an average to an above average golfer, take your business elsewhere. You’re in for a long day. The mindset of these people charging $70 for this dump is hilarious and may God have mercy on your souls. Take your time and money to a different track. Trust me….

good condition for drought on Long Island

I have played here in the past; always a rate bias for the municipality residents. Although the pace of play was slow, waiting to teeoff on every hole, the course was in above average condition. Some new red tees were added since my last round and that change made holes reachable in regulation.
