Nice little hidden golf course tucked in near the Catskills. Golf carts are old and outdated but they care about the course. In a summer with no rain the greens were watered well and soft.

Our Island Green visit was an adventure. Agreed - the course is in rough shape. Tee-box chaos, cart path confusion, weedy fairways and poor signage. However, the greens were in good shape and, oddly, there are no sand traps (which is OK by me). A needed item would be to provide players with an overview of the course layout with numbered holes (Google Earth/Google Maps?) The building exteriors need facelifts which they are working on. Happily, our room interiors were updated and clean. The dining room was dated, but the sliders (pork, brisket or chicken) and burgers were great and reasonably priced. The BEST part of Island Green – the staff! Kevin and Doug are so friendly and accommodating. Emily is an amazing server/bartender and makes Aperol Spritzes that rival those in Amalfi. Fun adventure.

Best pro shop staff around. Kevin, Doug and Brian are incredible warm and welcoming and Sella is a total gem. I’m a first time member here and am always accommodated with a smile. Haven’t tried the food yet but will post a separate review from them (Lil Piece). I guess I don’t find the course confusing because I golfed here when it was Rainbow. 🌈 My only suggestion is that they move the pro shop desk so it’s facing the door. Would be nice to be greeted by a face when you walk in instead of cooling towels.

More like 3.5. 3 for golf 4 for the staff and restaurant. Pretty cheap greens fees. Not too far from Albany. Greens were slow and burnt in many areas. Tee boxes were in rough shape. Fairways were rough and full of weeds. Lost 2 balls that I striped right down the middle. Definitely needs some chemical treatments and better irrigation. The course had an interesting layout, but with lots of blind shots. Carts are gas and loud. Cart paths are gravel and rough. I think it is under new ownership and hopefully they do a significant amount of work to improve the course. The restaurant is very nice and had a great menu.

The staff was fine. The golf course was in rough shape. Tee boxes were scattered around the course, unlevel, and beat up. The holes are stacked on top of each other, creating a lot of confusion and dangerous situations. There are not enough cart path signs that direct you to the holes… it was just extremely unorganized. The greens are small, which adds a nice challenge; but the grass was incredibly burnt and players do not fix their divots. Overall, this course needs a lot of maintenance. I wouldn’t suggest going to this course if you are a beginner or live outside of 10 minutes from the course.
