Description: With some of the tightest fairways on Long Island, this seemingly shortish tract plays a lot longer than the yardage on the scorecard. With rolling terrain & great stands of trees, almost all tee shots require both length and accuracy. The greens are small & normally undulating, if not drastically tiered. The front nine plays a bit tougher, but the back shows its teeth on the closing three holes. Each is a par-4 playing over 440 yards through tight, well-bunkered fairways to small, multi-tiered greens. The fairway on the 17th cuts a swath through beautiful huge pines and the staff likes to say it wouldn’t look out of place at Augusta National.
Signature Hole: #4. A 414 yard (back tees), par 4. Tee shot plays downhill to a hidden fairway, then doglegs right, around a spectacular bunker complex and marches uphill to a very difficult 3-tiered green that sits at least 60 feet above the fairway. The fairway is narrow and heavily tree-lined, par here is a good score. Comments: I’ve never played a course with tighter fairways...Punishing, if you don’t hit it straight. I spent all day hitting out from behind trees, and I couldn’t have enjoyed it more ... Defintiely not for beginners ... In great shape and a real test of course management ... The greens really required a deft touch, not just for chipping and putting, but for all approach shots ... Always a special treat for my son and me whenever we play here. It’s a beauty, and without a doubt one of our all time favorites. Public golf with the private touch. Wonderful variety of holes, each offering a different challenge.
