Willow Creek Golf & Country Club in Mount Sinai sits on Suffolk's scenic north shore. Opened in 2005, it is one of Long Island's newest golf courses but it has already established a reputation for being one of the area's most visually impressive. What makes the course stand out is the abundance of both sand and water. The number of bunkers on the golf course comes close to the triple digits and water appears on 12 holes. The lightning fast, wildly undulating greens are a challenging complement to the hazards. The layout presents a formidable test for even the best players. One of Hamlet Willow Creek's most difficult holes is the monstrous ninth, which features water on both sides of the seemingly endless fairway. With so much water, golfers almost forget about the three large bunkers that are also treacherously lurking on this hole.

Way too expensive for this time of year !!!

90.00+ each to play this course in March under current conditions was robbery.
We play this course (8-16 guys in our group) often during the season and really enjoy it.
Unfortunately yesterday the pace of play was very slow. Probably due to the fact that there was no starter or Ranger on the course. Pretty much a free for all for when to tee off. Tee boxes were a little rough with nothing to identify the tees. No food or beverage available at the halfway house either. You would think at 360.00 per foursome they could afford to pay a few people to work the course. Overall, a very disappointing day of golf.

Terrible experience

Had a 1:10 tee time didn't end up teeing off till about 1:30, pace of play was awful on many occasions my group of 3 was waiting at the tee box with the group ahead of us, probably waited at every tee box for about 10 min easily, a good 5 and half hour round, they really should have a ranger making people keep up the pace of play. Never coming back here especially for the fact that it is a very pricy course. DO NOT RECOMMEND

Great course

The course is in very good shape for February. We played in a foursome and finished the round in 3.5 hours and never waited on the group in front. Will definitely play Willow Creek again

Golf in January on Long Island

Temperature in the Mid 40s, greens and fairways in surprisingly good shape. Willow Creek is always one of my favorite courses to play in the area. To be able to play in January is a gift. Oh, I almost forgot, it was a Hot Deal plus an additional $10 off.
