First Ace!

Played with a really nice young man who was possibly more excited than i was when I got my HIO.
Overall the course was in very good shape. Especially considering the time of year. I will definitely return!

Should of told us

First let me say I love this golf course. When we check in we should of been informed that while we we playing, the maintenance staff was going to be aerating the fairway s and the surrounding areas. We were subjected to unbelievable dust and dirt on our clothes and our eyes and breathing. we’re greatly impaired. We completed the 18 holes because we’re crazy about the game like all you guys out there. Here’s the rub, we’ll definitely be back because we love this course. I just think the course management should of thought this through and not subject it’s players to these conditions. Sorry guys, you blew it!

Great day

There were some daunting holes for a bunch of seniors. Several very long par Fours and 190 yard par 3 were a bit much. Otherwise it is a wonderful golf course. We played in 4 hours and the condition of the course was very good. The bunkers need a little work . We will definitely be back.

Fun layout

Every hole is different in character. I’m a senior and played the appropriate tees and had a blast. This course charges a little more than other area courses. Spend the money, you won’t regret it.

Fun course. Good variety of holes. I’m a 17 handicap and 73 years old. Great course for us older guys. Greens were slow and varied in speed. The rest of the course was good. All in all it was a fun experience.

Good experience

You had better be straight. Once on the fescue dial 911. Greens undulate, fast and true. I'm 72 and a 16 handicap. Played 5600 yards with two friends. The fairways in great condition and narrow. This golf course is not about length. Staff friendly, informative and helpful. All in all a good experience.

Greens

Love this golf course. Unfortunately the drought has rendered the green unplayable. Really bad. We'll be back in the fall when they've gotten some rain and hopefully the greens will return.

Great golf course

Played here many times. Wonderful course. Greens a bit slow otherwise five stars easily. Played in 4 hours 20 minutes. The back is more difficult than the front. Every hole is different and for a 15 hadicapper it is quite challenging. With that in mind it is a course that makes you want to come back again and again.

Great venue.

The greens were aerated and tough to putt. The pace of play was very good. Maintenance was going on and one hole was closed. The views of the water are great. Overall a good experience. We will definitely come back. They are trying very hard to create a good golf experience. I believe they will.

Great Links Course

My foursome doesn't usually care for links courses. This was the exception to the rule. The course is set up beautifully . The fairways and greens are in great shape. The greens were rolling quick and true. This course is a challenge for every level of golfer. We finished up in less than four hours. This was a monad round and Mondays seem to be a great time to play as far a speed of rounds. We are All retired so apologies to those of you still at the grind. We have played this course when the wind is up and it is really difficult. All in all we had a great time and we will return. Be sure to visit the bar and have your beverage on the deck. The views are great.

Great Venue

First of all, don't let the 6100 yards fool you. this is a course that plays uphill and it can be a workout for a senor citizen. That being said, it is a really fun and interesting place to play. The holes are all distinctive and pose a challenge for those of us who are a 14 handicap. The round took us 5 hours but that is because we spent lots of time looking in the dense rough looking for lost balls. The greens were some what slow but putted true. We finished up and sat down for a beer and dinner. The food was very good and the service was excellent. All in all we had a great day and I wo0uld highly recommend this golf facility. We will be back.

Greens are really slow .

First time playing there. The course was really interesting especially the back nine. Fairways were in good condition but the rough needs cutting. We spent too much time looking for balls. The scenery is beautiful . My opinion is that if the greens were faster and the sand traps had actual sand ( mostly mud) this course would easily get another star. Get a ranger on the course. 5 1/2 round ! All in all we had a very pleasant day.

Good track and reasonable rates

This is a fun golf course and for a 14 handicap challenging enough. That being said I feel it is the courses duty to tell you that the greens have been punched and are not rolling properly. You charged a full rate for the course when only 2/3 of the course was in play. The staff is always of good cheer and the lounge is a friendly place for food and drink. I will definitely play it again when the greens have healed and the course i9s up to snuff.I placed an overall rating at average and will upgrade that when the greens are fixed to a good overall rating.

My favorite course

We drive from Nassau County 50 minutes to play this course. The round averages 4 to 4 1/2 hours. The course is in good condition but the greens could be a little faster. That being said, we love this course. There are several challenging holes and the par three on the back side plays almost 200yds.. The value is great and the staff are very cordial. I am a 14 handicap and 68 years old.The woods are deep but open so even if you hug a tree you can still get up and down. Lots of fun, go play!

Great Rock/ Greatly Disappointed

This is a course that is trying very hard to become
A goodplace to play . The layout is tough but fair.
The price to play here has increased substantially over
The last two years. As long as the greens remain shabby
And badly maintained, the price to play here cannot be
justified. Too bad. I'll will not return till this condition is addressed.
