Great opening 3 holes on the water. Less than a $1 a hole for locals - can't beat it anywhere! THE SECOND HOLE PAR THREE IS ONE OF THE MOST SCENIC HOLES ON THE ISLAND - BEAUTIFUL OCEANVIEWS, GENTLE BREEZE, WITH A WELL GUARDED GREEN HIDDEN BEHIND AN OLD WHISPERING WILLOW TREE - A LONG ISLAND GEM.

The putting greens tend to get a little hairy (aka uncut). b/c of the price and low degree of difficulty, this course is ideal for slow playing younsters & seniors which results in some really slow play in the peak/morning hours.

Great little course. Ideal for beginners and quick, late afternoon rounds. Fairways are wide open, greens are average size w/ little contour. Just a fun Course w/ some great views of Jones Beach.

Huge possibilities for the clubhouse. no food, pro-shop, or bar but plenty of space.

Awesome beginner course. Ohhhhhh what a view from the 2nd hole. Long and straight fairways. You can walk out with more golf balls than you came in with. Some of the nicest kept bunkers around. Built next to a landfill turned hiking park.

The greens are a mess, especially in the late-summer to early fall. Ridiculous early morning wait times. Driving range is for irons only. If you're caught with even a 7-wood, you're kicked out. Course lies next to a garbage disposal site. Can get a little noisy sometimes. Those darn Canadian geese are nothing but a nuissance. No pro shop??? No snack bar??? Not good.

This is where it all began for me. This is perhaps the best beginner course on Long Island. This 9-holer has everything. It offers a breathtaking view of Merrick Cove on the 2nd hole (can see Jones Beach Tower and Tommy Hilfiger Theatre). You can find a lot of golf balls on the first two holes, as water hugs the left side. Shank it and you're done. The most challenging hole is a 490-yard par 5, dogleg left. If you're just starting to play, this is the course for you. Practically a walk-on course after 2:30. Great prices, too. Built next to a landfill turned hiking park.

Putting is very good, if you can catch the course when the greens are in good shape.

beautifull views cheap prices good course layout friendly people

the greens are not the best and this summer were very bad but have gotten much better this fall,sometimes crowded,and people hitting ball on yourfairway (i am guilty of this)

This is my 2nd yr playing and this is a great place to learn.First 2 holes have water along sides and have great view of the water can see jones beach theater and boats out in the bay,also provides nice cool breeze off water if wind blowing that way.Course set up nicely some holes to close together and you get people hitting balls onto your fairway.It does get crowded in prime summer times 2.5hr wait but if you go in late afternoon it clears out and sometimes walked right out.This summer greens were very slow and the ruff very high because of alot of rain but got better this fall.Now the big problem is the geese which leave there mess all over the course.But to me this is my home course for now and for 10$ its easy to overlook anything.Try it out

nice putting green,driving range,no food but plenty places down the block

Great course management needed. Cost is great, $14 nonresident (2000). [see weakness] very good driving range and a huge putting area {something to do for that 2 1/2 hour wait} a places to eat, less than 5 min away.

This is a first come first serve facility. No tee time reservation. The is a long wait. We got there at 6:30am and there was a 2 1/2 hour wait. Slow play.

This a great regulation 9 holes, ~3200 yards. Doglegs, water in play, and very well place fairway bunkers. Great scenery on the 2nd hole. Great for beginners.
