Plan a Golf Outing on Long Island


Long Island's Premiere Limousine Service

P: (631) 587-8500

With 145 public and private courses from Montauk to Manhasset, Long Island is a golfers paradise; home to some of the oldest, challenging and most scenic places to play in the nation. So whether you're in it for the scenery or the challenge, here are a few tracks you wont want to skip out on this summer:

Bethpage Black Course - You’ve seen the best players in the world play it, now it’s your chance. Most US Open courses aren’t open to the public, but this one is and for a more than reasonable price! The last 4 holes consist of one of the best finishing stretches you’ll find anywhere. And then of course there’s the famous sign - proclaiming just how difficult the course is.

Bethpage Red Course - A great layout and always in good shape, if you’re making the trip to Bethpage State Park you can’t go wrong with either course. There is no more difficult opening hole on LI than here, an uphill 460-yard par-4 that even low handicappers struggle to reach in regulation. This one may not be as famed as its older sister, but it shouldn't be overlooked.

Willow Creek - Located in Mt. Sinai, Willow Creek may be one of LI’s hidden gems. This semi-private track known for its 16th hole holds a course rating of 72.9 and plays 6,611 yards from the black tees.

Tallgrass Country Club - One of the most aptly named courses, you’ll find thick fescue grasses around the layout. When the wind strikes, which happens often on the North Shore, some of the holes can be virtually unplayable. But very often, the back nine will play easier than the front nine.

Lido Golf Club - A picturesque and challenging seaside links course features some elevated greens guarded by massive bunkers, significant water hazards, and what some consider the toughest stretch after the turn of any course on the Island. The left fairway is best for a lay up, the right fairway is riskier but holds better opportunities for birdie or eagle.
