South Shore Golf Course
Played On 04/08/2024Wait to play
The course is in rough shape, I snagged a tee off special but at full price the course is simply not worth it. I do see they are working on some tees, but the course needs many weeks of good weather to start the grass growing. Greens have a ridiculous amount of top dressing, combined with the typical Neanderthals who never fix ball marks and putting is at best a crap shoot. I feel South Shore has the most character of any Staten Island course, but I would stay away for the time being.
Dyker Beach Golf Course
Played On 03/14/2024Very enjoyable
I've played Dyker Beach some 30-40 times, it's a nice layout, nice mix of holes some easy some very challenging so it's suitable for a wide variety of golfers. For mid March, course was in very good shape, greens were excellent, kudos to the superintendent. Pace of play was very good, under 4 1/2 hours. The only complaint is the motorized carts, they are clearly way past their prime with new ones supposedly coming in a few months. The bunkers have new sand, cart paths were replaced, will definitely play again.
Rutgers University Golf Course
Played On 09/15/2023Nice track
The course is in great shape from tee boxes to greens which were perfect to putt. As usual pace of play is something the course emphasizes and with cart it's a max of 4 hours. In addition to course there is a nice practice area with a chipping green with bunker as wel, separate putting green and a driving range. It represents great value, is s fun fair course, nice variety of holes, keep the ball in the fairways and you can score.
South Shore Golf Course
Played On 08/29/2023It’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.
South Shore Golf Course
Played On 07/13/2023Fun round
Teed off in time, p
Layer front nine in about 1 hour and 25 minutes with cart, back nine a tad over 2 hours, nice pace of play, course in excellent shape, greens were amazing. Overall as good as this course gets.
Dyker Beach Golf Course
Played On 09/27/2021Pleasantly surprised
Despite the heavy play, the course was in excellent condition.though the tee boxes do need some work. Greens were smooth and putting was great. Pace of play was under 4 hour s with a cart. After recently playing Staten Island courses which are not in good condition I was playing as I got a hot deal at the right time, very happy I did as it was an enjoyable round. Lastly, bunkers need work as they more like waste bunkers as they have very little sand.
South Shore Golf Course
Played On 09/20/2021It's seen better days
If properly maintained the course is well designed and fun to play, but the management has let the course deteriorate to the point it's not only not fun but downright unplayable. Greens were ok, still recovering from aeration but tee boxes and fairways look more like grazing areas than golf courses. I got a golf now hot deal and used a promotion so at least it want so expensive, the rack rate with cart(and the carts are in horrible condition) is just not worth it. I won't be be back this year, hopefully next year will be better, too many other places to play for better conditions and value.
LaTourette Golf Course
Played On 09/13/2021Needs attention
Greens recently aerated but are still very firm as it appears they neither water nor cut them. In general , tee boxes are poor, fairways ok, not one. Cart path on the course is in good shape. Course is a good layout, just looks tired, need some tlc.
South Shore Golf Course
Played On 08/30/2021Great local muni
Have been playing course 30+ years, in great condition especially greens, tee boxes need work cart paths needs to be entirely replaced unless you like getting a very rough and tumble ride. Carts are getting a tad beat up and need replacing. For the hot deal price including cart excellent value, full rack rate is too high. Played in 4 hours with cart and pace of play was very good but only because of the golfers themselves, no rangers in sight.
Dyker Beach Golf Course
Played On 05/17/2021Not what it used to be
Other than pace of play which was excellent mainly I’m guessing because no players as course conditions have deteriorated to an very poor condition. Greens ok, but not cut, fairways and tee boxes are a misti[rye of dirt and something green more like crabgrass., I have played this course for well over 20 years and it may well be in the worst condition in all that time. My cart made it through the round though several times I wasn’t quite sure. Needless to say, until I hear differently I will not be back and wouldn’t recommend it to anybody, with hot weather coming, only going to get worse.
Eagle's Landing
Played On 05/12/2021Ocean City Gem
I've been playing the course for well over 20 years and the course conditions were in pristine conditions, best I've ever played. The layout is generally good but there are a couple of holes that are unusual, you need to know the course in order to play them correctly. I wish they would find a way to have some sort of a driving range/net, but the other practice areas are excellent. I was fortunate to get a special rate today, but for visitors the tee rates have gotten expensive but with Covid this seems to be the norm for many courses. Overall a very good venue.
Mattawang Golf Club
Played On 04/20/2021TT Prices not as advertised
Booked reservation through Golf Now, hot deals which included a cart, however upon checking in at course was told that rate did not include cart and if I wanted a cart I had to pay an additional $20 which when I disputed was met with extreme rudeness by sales clerk who told me play or go home. Apparently this is the courses new policy but they have not communicated to Golf Now to correct which obviously creates customer ill will. Have played course for 20 years, love the course, first time I’ve ever encountered this kind of service(or lack there of)
Silver Lake Golf Course
Played On 10/15/2020Surprisingly good
I don't play the course much even though it's close to my home, but was very pleased with the course conditions. The pace of play was a tad slow but not unacceptably so. The greens are in excellent condition. Overall the course is extremely playable.
We appreciate you taking the time to review the course and rate us. Thank you for the 4 stars! We aim for a 5-star experience, so we always welcome feedback for improvement. Thank you for playing Silver Lake Golf Course.
LaTourette Golf Course
Played On 09/21/2020Rough Conditions
American Golf has apparently abandoned any maintenance on the course other than the greens were for the most part were extremely playable. Fairways are sparse and rock hard, bunkers are nothing more than curt patches overgrown with weeds, totally unplayable. For the $39 I paid with cart and it was local, it’s just ok, but I can’t recommend right now and will not return until next year.
Rutgers University Golf Course
Played On 09/09/2020Easy walking course
While not long, from the back tees presents enough of a challenge even for low handicappers. Pace of play is always amazing, 4 hours walking max. Fairways are getting a little burnt out, greens are excellent.
Plantation Lakes Golf and Country Club
Played On 08/10/2020Nice track
Course was in excellent shape and played in under 4 hours. Very playable for all levels of skill, many homes have water in play. The back 9 which just opened not quite as good as the front yet, needs more time to mature. Have played most Ocean City courses and will definitely play again, it's good value.
Colts Neck Golf Club
Played On 03/25/2019Short Course with Challenge
An interesting mix of holes, while short in length plays longer than stated yardage. The defense of the hikes are the greens which are undulating and fast
Mattawang Golf Club
Played On 06/17/2018A fun course to play
As always, course conditions were fantastic. The course is very pretty and offers golfers of all abilities a challenge. Keep the ball in play and you can score. Greens are smallish meaning you can miss many, but if on you will have a reasonable birdie putt. Playing 4 1/2 hours on Father’s Day is a reasonable pace of play. Staff is pleasant and courteous. I have played course for many years and continue to play as it is good value for a quality course. $7 for the small bucket of balls is on the high side
Thanks a lot for making the trip from SI and spending a busy FATHERS DAY here at Mattawang!
I understand your comment on the bucket of balls but it is important to keep in mind. We use floater golf balls and spend countless hours trying to recover the balls. Our driving range is far from a profit center but only a warm up area for our golfers.
We look forward to your next visit.
We appreciate you making the trip from Staten Island and your long time support. However, many of your comments are not factual and unrelated to our actual policies. Hot Deals are the property of Golf Now and NOT Mattawang GC. If the owner of the tee time did not include the cart your dispute is with them and their lack of accurate information or inability to communicate.
