Course is Beautiful

The Course was really Nice. Only Problem, It was real Hot so they were watering the Course. Unfortunately for us the water came on most of the holes we were playing and we were saturated by the time we left after playing 18 holes.This was the first time we played here after playing the front nine we saw the sign for the 10th hole but it wasn't near the hole so we had a little hard time finding where it was but we did. We had a Good Time Playing and it is a Good Layout. I would definitely play there again as long as I can Stay Dry.

Always impresses

This course has become a regular in my rotation. Staff is always friendly and accommodating - and the course conditions are second to none! Greens are perfect, fairways luscious - and rough is nice and green, not bare like other courses. If the BBQ is open at the turn, get the spiral sausage!!!

Always in great shape

Teed off a little after 6:00 a.m. here and even though they sent out people on the back 9 ahead of us, the pace of play was still under 4 hours. I am amazed with, as big is the greens are, how well kept they are. They are true and in perfect condition as with the rest of the course. Had a decent, inexpensive breakfast after the round .The wait staff is always pleasant and excellent here. I would definitely recommend this course.

Huge Greens

They say they have the biggest greens on Long Island and they aren't kidding. If you like to keep stats then you should love this course because you should have at least 3 more greens in reg. Overall, I really like the course every time I play here. The fairways are usually in very good shape, as well as the greens even though the greens are usually on the slower side. The rough is a little gnarly at times, but manageable. Course is pretty straightforward with a few holes that have doglegs. It has water, but for the most part that water shouldn't penalize you. This is a very scoreable course and an enjoyable course.

Perfect Golf Weather

Course is in descent shape. The fringe is very thick. You pretty much have to do a flop shot around the greens. Greens are slow. Pin placements definitely challenging. The sand is very fluffy. Fun par 5s and 4s. Long par 3s all from the tips.

Nice well laid out course

Played swan lake during the fall and winter. Saw the potential than and I wasn’t disappointed. The course was in great shape. The staff was very helpful and polite. The greens were even and the fairways were cut to perfection. Already booked several future outing.

Great day for golf

Had clubs shipped to the course for when we arrived. Mike and his staff were friendly and very helpful, a great bunch of guys. Course was in excellent shape and the greens roll true. Can't wait to get back there and play that course again!! Definitely a top course on Long Island.
