Course is great, we played quick and fast, even tho greens were apparently aerated not long ago, the ball rolled well

The Golf Club at Middle Bay overall was a great day for golf. The Club is underway restoring the course and club house. A few of the fairways were wet due to recent weather conditions. The greens were fast & furious, the undulation didn't help lol, the staff was friendly, parking easy.

Course continues to go through rehabilitation, so tees are temporary. The most challenging item is the many bunkers, the sand is in great shape only bunker draining problem was on the 8th hole with held quite a bit of water. Although we had cart path only, it was not crowded but we played a 4:30 round, we plan on continuing to play there thru rehab and improvements

Course renovations continue, some holes were fairway only, understandable, some rain recently made the course soft. We had a great time, as we took advantage of a "Hot deal"

Feb 10, 2023 a blustery winter day at 50 something degrees, the course was in winter mode, played with a tough wind, normally you get to play a hole where the wind helps you, I didn't find that hole, lol. I and my playing partners enjoyed the course and the layout, we chose to play under 6000 yards which was still challenging, when and if I ever become a good golfer I will focus on mastering this challenging course. We had a great time and the course employees are great.

I played the course in the past, it did not drain well even if rained several days earlier. Improvements have the course draining well, and the bunkers were 90% dry. The work being done is very nice, the holes are challenging and difficult greens with varing undulation, short holes that are deceivingly tough. While there were temporary tee boxes and a temporary green, my group enjoyed the round.

I played the course before and had looked forward to playing it again, so happy I got the chance. The course is very challenging and plays long from the "white" approx 6,200 yards. The wind made it even more difficult in November, I hope to have another opportunity before the year ends, it's December so I'm really going to need some "luck" lol.

The course is currently under recovery from aeration in late Fall season. with the aeration recovery putting was not overly challenging beyond the norm, the green undulation already makes it difficult, lol. the course has bay side greens and fairways that add to the difficulty of playing it, long par 4's, doglegs, bunkers, water hazards and long par 5's with trees, but I would play this course twice a week if possible and I didn't mention 135 slope.

I had played this course several years ago, there has been a marked improvement of the facility, some serious money has been spent. when I played years ago the layout of the front 9 and the back 9 have been reversed.
I knew that the course had a drainage problem so I played while there was no rain. Apparently that does not matter. Several fairways hold significant water that prevent the use os golf carts. Most fairways and greens are in beautiful condition. I will play it again tho, it is very enjoyable place to play.

The course was in great shape, a few saturated areas that were taped off, but 90% of course in great shape, I was really impressed and can't wait to get back there

Course was recently aerated but greens held the lines. Fairways were in great shape, pace of play moved well.

there was a misunderstanding about the inclusion of a golf cart. when I booked the tee time via GolfNow a cart was included, but the course claims that they have no such agreement with GolfNow concerning a cart. This. was an embarrassment to me due to my inviting friends with the idea a golf cart was included.
The course played tough due to windy condition, so it threw our distance off, either the wind was with use causing the balls to travel further, or it was against us stopping the ball short of normal distance

Overall the course is playable still has winter snow in area outside of play. Pace of play was excellent, the greens appear slightly aerated, grass has not grown yet, still winter brown.

The course playing in the Winter was actually enjoyable, 4 hour round in the 5 boroughs is unheard of, but the pace of play was awesome. So good I look forward to my next round there.

The course was in very good condition although we had cartpath only due to recent snow, but the round played 4 hrs 10 minutes, greens played well, bunkers and water Hazzard’s challenging, but I so enjoy this course

The course is very good shape and play moves smoothly through 4 hrs play. Met a nice twosome, we enjoyed each other’s company and the course I highly recommend playing it again

Had planned on using an electric Cart, due to poor drainage the course would not allow electric carts. The courses appears to be not well maintained, I imagine COVID-19 has something to do with that. The layout is challenging and exciting, I don't want to throw away the year 2020, but 2020 has been an awful year affecting every aspect of business, I will definitely return to the course, because I don't believe this is who they are.

Got out first group at 11:40a, rain most of the morning, the greens were recently aerated, amazing fast uphill and naturally downhill. Only white tees available with winter rules. Course drained well, fairways and rough in good shape due to mild winter. Had an enjoyable time with my friends.

Still Winter, but the course shaping right towards Spring. Fairway aerated, fescue has grown as of yet, greens look good, I anticipate that they will be great in mid spring. Beautiful overcast day slight showers allowed for fast play

The course is still in winter mode, but it was great to stretch my arms and swing freely, watch the true ball flight and not a simulator. Cart path only slowed play but amazingLy still a 4 hr 15 min round. Overall an enjoyable round.
