A classic design held back by poor conditioning and limited amenities, South Brooklyn’s Dyker Beach won’t break the bank but is not one of the better New York City munis. … More Review: Dyker Beach Golf Course
While Cabot Links often takes a backseat to its younger, more photogenic sister, this is still a world class course with a wonderful routing, an emphasis on the ground game, and a true links feel that so many North American courses fail to capture. I highly recommend both courses at Cabot to all serious golfers. … More Review: Cabot Links
While architecturally Patriot Hills could benefit from a stronger finish and better par threes, this mountainous course just north of New York City offers tremendous value and conditions as well as some terrific and memorable holes. I highly recommend this public course to all those in the Tri-state area. … More Review: Patriot Hills Golf Club
Glitzy, gorgeous, and unrelentingly fun, Wolf Creek is an architectural masterpiece and one that should be on every golfer’s bucket list. Purists may scoff at the cart requirement, lack of cohesiveness, and manufactured layout, but amateur architect Dennis Rider deserves a lot of credit for a building a course this brazen. Wolf Creek is not for everyone, but for many this will be an unforgettable experience. … More Review: Wolf Creek Golf Club
Wonderfully quirky, old-school, and surprisingly challenging, Shelter Island A.K.A. Goat Hill is a step back in time for the golfer. While this won’t be everyone’s cup of tea, the wackiness and variety alone make this a worthy stop for this who appreciate interesting golf architecture. … More Review: Shelter Island Country Club
Although not quite the best course on the Cape, the exclusive seaside home of The Kennedy Family offers ample fun, several world-class holes, and spectacular views. Hyannisport is absolutely worth the play if you get an invite. … More Review: Hyannisport Club
Although located in a beautiful setting at the base of Sleeping Giant National Park, Sleeping Giant Golf Course leaves a lot to be desired in terms of challenge, layout, and conditions. This is a good 9-hole public course for beginners but not one I’d go out of my way for. … More Review: Sleeping Giant Golf Course
While not exactly the most memorable course, Ravenwood is a very strong upscale public course with excellent conditioning and a nice layout. This is no doubt one of the best public courses in the region and one I would recommend. … More Review: Ravenwood Golf Club
Perhaps the most isolated of the world’s great courses, Highlands Links doesn’t get the recognition it deserves but left me awestruck. With one of the most memorable and naturally beautiful settings in golf, Stanley Thompson created a spellbinding masterpiece here that all who value golf architecture should visit. A trip to Cabot without including Highlands is truly unforgivable. … More Review: Highlands Links
Worcester Country Club is one of the most underrated courses in America and definitely amongst my favorites in the Bay State. With an extremely strong Donald Ross parkland layout, an important place in golf history, and wonderful conditions, this is a course I’d go out of my way to play. It’s simply that good. … More Review: Worcester Country Club
