Regulation Eighteen at Smithtown Landing Golf Club
Rating Snapshot
About
Smithtown Landing Golf Club offers both an 18-hole regulation course and a nine-hole executive course. The courses are open to the public on weekdays and to Smithtown residents on the weekends. The Regulation Course has a surprisingly tough layout with subtle but tricky contours throughout that cause some challenging lies. Mature trees line the fairways, making accuracy a necessity and there are also several strategically placed bunkers lurking along the greensides. At 6,114 yards from the back tees, it's a golf course that requires strategy over length, beginning with the first hole. This dogleg right par 4 will force you to carefully think about the placement off the tee. In addition to the two golf courses, Smithtown Landing also has two practice greens with surrounding short game areas and a driving range.

Course
I think the course is very nice, moderately difficult, and just poorly kept greens. The first cut of the green was bumpy and had different patches of crab grass around it. If they clean that up the course would be much better. Overall I like it just the greens are in poor shape
Lots of improvements!
Been playing this course since the mid 1980s and so happy to see many improvements to the course and facilities over the past year or two! Brand new tee box at #2 is most welcome. New cart paths are also excellent. Great layout with fast greens. About half the greens were aerated but it wasn’t too bad. Grass still not grown in yet, but it’s still early in the season. Course was very dry… no watering and no rain recently. When summer rolls around this will be a super place to play!

Not Ready for the Season
I normally play the course a few times per year. They apparently did a lot of work on the grounds since the last time I played fixing cart paths and removing trees, but the condition of the course was not good. Tee boxes were generally in poor shape and a few were temporary. The greens were an odd shade of light green and ran unusually fast. I love the challenging layout of the course and hope conditions improve as the season progresses.

Music on the course
Everything about Landing is terrific except for the fact that many golfers blast music from their carts disturbing everyone around them. This happens at this course far more than any others on Long Island. There is a reason they have signs that say "quiet" when golfers tee off. If golfers can't be respectful to their fellow players, course personnel should ensure they do.

Another great day at Smithtown Landing
Course in pretty good shape for this time of year. Always start tee times on time. Very friendly staff.. Under construction, but when finished the amenities( dining) will be outstanding!!!
More staff would be helpful
The greens and fairways were pretty good for this time of year but on several tees, the garbege cans were overflowing with a lot litter on the ground all around them. Pretty disgusting. Tee boxes really chewed up. Hard to find any grass. $56 to walk in February is pretty steep. I like to play here but please hire someone to pick up the trash. All greens have two cups which is a great idea so when the group is finished putting, they put the flag in the other one to save the wear and tear near the hole but nobody was doing it. Starter was a nice guy but should have told the groups to alternate the pins when they were done with the hole.
Hi. Thank you for reviewing the course. Let us first start by apologizing for the poor experience you had during your visit. Your feedback about the course is important to us. We are working to get everything up to par. We have projects ongoing to recover the fairways and greens. The current condition is by no means the standard we strive to achieve. We are going to escalate your feedback to our team so we can make improvements before your next game, and we will continue to work towards an excellent experience by using your comment for guidance. Thank you for playing our course. We hope to see you again soon.
