Needs work
Greens are in really bad shape
It’s almost impossible to putt on at least 4 greens
Hopefully it’s back in order soon enough
Buyer Beware
Some greens are unplayable. The bunkers are filled with rock from Pompeii. Your clubs get stolen by the group behind you. The tee boxes look like dug up tombs. There add random mounds of dirt the height of your waist in the fairway, amongst other unplayable spots. There’s also a few hornets nests here and there. There is no rangers on duty to enforce pace of play. The groundskeeper has been missing since 1982. All this for $82. I know what you’re thinking, you just need a place to play today, but trust me, it isn’t worth it.
No grass on tee boxes. Greens terrible. Overall poor condition
It’s South Shore
Overall course is in good shape, but several greens on the back 9 were apparently vandalized but are improving. Pace of play was great, under 3 hours with cart. It’s a fun layout, lot of variety in the holes, for a public golf course at a discounted rate its great value, full rate with cart it’s overpriced.
Southshore wait until next season to play
Although it rained the night before the condition of the course bad. Just about every tee box was mud. A few greens are still recovering from vandalism. Used to be one of my favorite courses and I hope by next season they will have figured out how to get plush tee boxes again. They should not charge more than $40 with cart in the condition it is in.

Place stinks. It’s up for sale and you can tell. Telling us cart path only when 5 of the greens have longer grass than the fairway and every team box is a pig pen.
Shambles
Looking to spend alit of money on a goof course with crappy conditions for 5 hrs look no further The tee boxes were dirt with a few patches of grass, and the greens were aerated and covered in sand making it impossible to putt At the turn i waited 20 mins to get water and a snack. There was only one person working (inefficiently) causing huge back ups on the course. I couldnt wait a lifetime so went without. No cart girl and no water supplied on the course American Golf you ought to be ashamed if what you did to this facility
Awful
Ranger had an attitude about carts not on the cart path when nobody stated it was cart path only, course was run down compared to what it looked like a few weeks ago. Greens are usually pure but this round they were unkept and filled with divots. No mention that a few holes on the back 9 were being worked on and greens were unplayable prior to booking tee time. Ranger kicked us off the course on hole 18, didn’t allow us to finish the final hole of the day. They charge a premium price for a sub par course.
Great Event Host
Mike & his staff were tremendous during my recent memorial fundraiser. Anything we needed we had immediately. The pace was excellent and our players really enjoyed the course. We’ll do it all again next year!
Go Elsewhere
A 1/3 of the greens were all sand and the bunkers are trash. Not worth the money…
Teebox in trouble
Some tee boxes are not in good shape and should be seeded and closed off. 3 greens were sanded but oters in great shape.
Horrible conditions
Got a hot deal for a Saturday afternoon round prepaid. Second time here, went in 2022 and really no issues, not the same the second time around. Maybe 3/18 tee boxes were level and grass, most were dirt mud and hilly, finding even ground for your tee shot shouldn’t be difficult. The back 9 was where things got really bad. Every other green was sanded so much that sand would fly up when the ball landed on it. 3 separate holes had so many sand hornet nests that we couldn’t even chip or putt without being swarmed. Bunkers were basically just dirt and if your ball was even a few yards off the fairway on any hole you’re likely shooting out of some dried up mud patch. No course should be in this poor condition at the end of July. For context I’ve been using GolfNow for 3 years and have never left a review good or bad but I was pretty disappointed in the cliff the conditions of this course have fallen off. Won’t be coming back until it’s cared for better
One of the better NYC public courses
Good value, good pace of play, nice course layout. Teeboxes and bunkers need some work but fairway and greens in great condition. Overall great experience, would definitely play again.
