Besides being overwhelmed by strong winds, the course was a bit intimidating, some holes were somewhat difficult. I actually enjoyed the challenge. But the wind took everything out of me, never played in those windy conditions, when you have no other choices than to aim 10 to 20 feet left or right of the whole. Any how I had a decent time. the most important issue I had was the fairways were very spongy, I think it's called Kikuyu and it's very spongy and thick, balls won't roll much on drives, also there were to many really deep swinging divots without restoration of any of them. It could be better. though I did like all the greens, very smooth and fast.

I played on Nov. 8th and apparently they seemed to overbook,, I played only 10 holes and it took almost 4 HOURS, I quit thereafter, not please about the pace,, I recommend the course but, as a warning, if they overbook the course, get ready to pull your hair, it was a frustrating day,,

It started pretty smooth but after the 7th hole things got very slow. I was hoping someone will come along to move the playing pace. Huge disappointment and waste of time after the 12th hole I left, I didn't see myself continuing in such a slow pace,,,, it's a great course but slow playing pace.

I've played this course numerous times and it never disappoints, the fairways are trimmed shorter than usual so finding your ball isn't challenging, lost only one ball. You will love the greens they're in spectacular condition, the 10th hole never looked better, it always disappointed. I would recommend this course to intermediates and experienced as well.

I live in Staten Island and we have three courses and two of them are the best in the city, Silver Lake and La Tourette golf course. this past Saturday I decide to travel to Brooklyn to a course I played about six maybe seven years ago and it was in great condition, I had an incredible time, the fairways were trimmed to almost perfection and greens as well with very little imperfection, divots etc. But this time around it was a nightmare, untrimmed fairways lose the ball easily and the greens were a disaster with divots on all greens I mean terrible, and I will not mention the slow play with one group of four ahead of me took 40 minutes to play hole one,,, waste of money,,,

I've been playing this course for many years, I was not too happy playing 6 years ago, but since they invested a ton of money to restructure the fairways and the greens, I was impressed. the course is challenging but doable to experience and beginners. Now, I played this past Saturday and as for some players in front of me were complaining about slow play as you can imagine I was frustrated as well. I guess someone allowed a 6 person inexperience group play together. by the time we reached the 10th hole some decided to go home and some started the front 9 again, I decided to jump ahead to the 12th hole. I was not a happy camper, though I had fun the last seven holes,,

I'm a faithful Golf Now customer and I usually book 95% of my playing time through this web site, so when I'm done purchasing my course time it basically explains my purchase, it usually mentions the course, the time, holes & cart included, now when mention to me that the cart is included in my reservation. Now, on this particular day after registering at the pro shop I received my keys and off I went to the !st hole thinking things are going to be great today the weather was fine and I have not played here in a while so I was very eager to play, but, when I reached the send-off area the person said I have to share a cart with another single player that had his own cart. I immediately refused, I explained to this individual that within my receipt says Cart included, he claims I only paid for a half cart? So he suggested that if I did not like this rule take your receipt to the pro shop and get your money back (RUDE). I could not understand cause on the way to him I saw close to 20 carts parked. Anyhow,, I said fine I will do that, I asked for my money back, I explained the situation to the person at the pro shop and finally contacted that person and decided to let us go with our own carts. I didn't care to much about the situation but I had a great time thereafter, the course was in the greatest shape I have ever seen it, the fairways were magnificently manicured and the greens well, you must play this course again & again, what ever they did they did it right......

This is an awesome course with really tight fairways, this can be a relentless course but really fun to play. The greens are in great condition and so are the fairways. I recommend this course to beginners and advanced players as well. This is also a great place to have an event due to some great venus and the food. It's a must play golf course,,,,,,,
