They won't let you golf with just two so bring your own foursome if you don't want to golf with strangers! Although the patrons were very nice.
Course is nice, They have limited amount of golf carts. Sometimes people can b real assholes and shoot while you're still on the hole puttin
Course is nice. I recommend it if you enjoy a dozen or so crabby monitors stopping by every hole to stare at your t-shots, fairway shots and putts...
Winner of Best Public Golf Course in the Village Voice 2011 Best Of issue! It's the only golf course in America you can reach by subway.
Expect a round to take way longer than it should... On a decent day in April, it took around 6 hours for a full 18 due to consistent congestion on the course.
Don't miss out on a chance to take a lesson with course pro Paul Sliva.Beginner or pro(he coaches a few)he'll help your game.
Don't expect to be done in under 5 hours if it's nice out- everyone and their grandma is here, with tee times way overbooked.
Get a cart, course is divided into 3 sections with long walks in between.
Beautiful Sunday morning playing golf
You don't need driver on first hole. Go for control, it's a short hole to start/warm up with.
Best golf course in the Bronx!
Oldest public golf course the US.
Yes people there is a golf course in the Bronx
Stay right on the second hole. Going left adds too much yardage.
Be hydrated since there is no drinking water. But, not too hydrated since there are no bathrooms .
It's cheap
Best public course in five boroughs.
Spacious formal rooms and bedchambers are furnished with 18th-century antiques. Among the mansion's many treasures are America's oldest dollhouse and child's sled. - NYC-ARTS
