Lots of rain overnight and in the AM prior to 12:00 start time. Because of this the course was fairly empty so never had to wait to hit a shot. Despite all the rain, and while some of the fairways had a good amount of water, the greens were excellent as they drain very well. Overall conditions are excellent!

Ironically, the carts display a sign encouraging everyone to play at a four hour pace. Round took just about 5 hours! No rangers on the course that I could see. Otherwise, other than the first and last holes, a very nice place to play. Lots of stuff on the greens from the trees so at this time of year it would help to have staff blow off the greens.

This is one of LI’s best public courses. Greens are not yet in great condition but once they are the greens are the best around. One drawback, for some unknown reason, you cannot check-in for your tee time until 1/2 hour prior. Makes no sense. I arrived 45 minutes prior to tee time so that I could use the range and putt etc. I was sold a range token but told I couldn’t check in for my round for another 15 minutes. So, if you want to use the range, instead of going to the first tee afterwards, which is adjacent to the range, you have to drive back to the clubhouse to check-in and then drive back to the first tee. Another silly golf course policy. Meanwhile at Bethpage, if you don’t check in at least one hour prior to your tee time, you risk losing it!! How about making things convenient for paying customers instead of more difficult for no reason?

Tee boxes and fairways were average for the area but the greens were outstanding! Very slow round starting at around 1:30 but otherwise, a great experience.

If I didn't already know, I never would have guessed this was a Town of Brookhaven golf course. It's up there with the best privately owned courses.

No complaints other than some of the greens having been recently fertilized

Played Spruce and Oak. Both courses in great shape. Pro shop staff very friendly. Starter doesn't seem to like his job. Will definitely be back.

Very enjoyable experience. Pro Shop guys are extremely pleasant as were the other employees. Weather was overcast which may have had something to do with it but we finished in less than 4 hours with a 12:52 tee time!

The scenery surrounding this course is spectacular. Otherwise, the course is a big disappointment. The tee boxes on the grass driving range is mostly dirt/sand. Otherwise, on the course itself, the tee boxes are in bad shape - lots of weeds. Fairways are mainly in good shape and the greens are above average. Overall, for the price, I expected a course in pristine condition. Better courses are available in this area for half the cost.

Very nice OBX course and reasonably priced. No Driving Range.

Thoroughly enjoyable. I played 3 courses in OBX area and this one was the best!

Definitely one of the best courses on the island. Everything was in perfect condition. Lots of water hazards making it a bit tough for the first time playing the course but look forward to going back.

Excellent facility. Staff is friendliest around. I needed to have my 3-wood re-gripped and the pro did me a favor and took care of it right away, no problem. Wouldn't even accept a tip.

Very nice course. Very good playing conditions. Slow play - not sure what the ranger was doing. You're not allowed to drive your cart to the irons-only driving range which is down a long hill - not sure why that is.

I had played Swan Lake years ago and remembered how big and nice the greens were. The greens are now in terrible condition which ruins the round. I've never seen such bad greens. Other than the greens, the course is beautiful.
