Dyker Beach Golf Course

Sand traps need alot of attention. A little TLC could really make this course more desirable. Layout of the course is very good. Rough could use a cut and fairways need to fill in in spots. Overall I like the course and would return. Tks Bill

The weather was stormy and the pro shop held up play due to lightning strikes. They allowed the die hard golfers a later tee time, after the storm, mainly because a lot of people just left. So a full parking lot reduced to fifteen cars, most of them on course waiting out the storm.
The tees are not labeled, needed help locating 1st tee, after that not bad ,good layout. The bunkers were the worst, no sand mostly dirt, otherwise the course played well after a rainstorm, and a wide open course allowed for a 3.5hr round

Maybe due to Covid, but course has seen better days, lot's of crab grass, unraked bunkers, terrible tee boxes, etc. you can hit perfect tee shots and not be able to find your ball, Could be a very nice course in the middle of the city, easy to get there, but very neglected and overpriced for the conditions

Despite the heavy play, the course was in excellent condition.though the tee boxes do need some work. Greens were smooth and putting was great. Pace of play was under 4 hour s with a cart. After recently playing Staten Island courses which are not in good condition I was playing as I got a hot deal at the right time, very happy I did as it was an enjoyable round. Lastly, bunkers need work as they more like waste bunkers as they have very little sand.

While there was some damage from the recent storms, it's very clear that this is a goat track and doesn't care. Staff is warm and friendly but management doesn't equip them with tools for the job. If you're "always about 30 minutes behind on the tee shot" and it was 50 min behind the tee sheet when I played, then that's a massive problem. I watched 8 groups go off ahead of us where 3 out of 4 players take 2-3 breakfast balls each and the starter did nothing about it. You should be encouraging scramble play for clearly new players. You can't sell 9 min tee times, have no rangers and not enforce any kind of pace of pay. Insane. On top of that, every single bunker and tee box was beyond disgusting. I'll never return.

The big problem on the course is maintenance. Fairways and greens were in okay shape, but not great. The practice green had about an inch of grass on it so it was unusable. Bunkers looked like they hadn’t been raked in months with huge footprints throughout. Biggest headache was the rough. There is no first cut or second cut of rough. If you miss a fairway or a green, be prepared to spend several minutes looking for your ball. Everywhere you look on the course, you see players searching for balls in the rough. If you’re lucky it will be only 3 inches, but many spots are 6 inches to over a foot of rough. Our round took over 4 1/2 rounds. For $56 as resident seniors, we felt we didn’t get our money’s worth. We were happy to finally get off the course and will play here again only as a last resort.

Please save your money and go somewhere else…anywhere else! The ruffs played like out of bounds, traps have not been touched since pre-COVID19. I can’t believe they can charge full price for these types of conditions.

Will not come back!!

Bunkers not raked. Rough is way overgrown. Fairways good. Greens long but good condition.

Havent played Dyker in about 6 yrs. heard to many horror stories about course conditions and slow play. I only played because of a Hot deal i got for $40 included cart.
Greens were in great shape, tee boxes need some TLC. Bunkers are a horror show.

Staff was very friendly..

Played 4 hrs 30 min on a week day.
For $40, well well well worth it… If I had to pay more, I think I would have went somewhere else…

The rough on most holes was pretty long which led to 5 minute search parties trying to find balls on multiple holes. Sand traps are mostly dirt but I was still able to play out of them without much trouble. Some tee boxes are lacking in grass, but I don't find that to be so terrible as long as they are relatively flat (which they are). Greens are in good shape though!

Bit disappointing because I think the conditions were actually BETTER in 2020 that now in 2021. I didn't think the name (Dyker Beach) would mean there was sand on every tee box. They were all in terrible condition. The most annoying part about that is there were plenty of area in much better condition on almost every box, so they just were too lazy to move the tee boxes.

Sand traps haven't been worked on this year (it's August).

Greens were fine.

We went out early morning and despite it being early the same bonkers were very poor condition none of them raked. The rock is poorly maintained and too long if you miss the fairway by three yards it's very easy to lose your ball. None of the hall markings or signage was up.The guy behind the counter other personality of a white sponge. Really I went with a bunch of my buddies from Jersey and I was embarrassed and I told them not all courses in New York look like this. Hopefully they get their act together. Still was able to have a great time but we lost a lot of balls that were in play.
