Very challenging with elevated greens, lots of bunkers, and lots of wind. The senior citizen discount is great. Reserving a tee time on the automated phone system is a pain and increases the price by $5, not 3 which the recording says.

This is about the most challenging and picturesque golf course on Long Island available to the general public. For the money, yard for yard, green for green, it's about as good as it gets. It is not overly long on paper, but given the ever-present and ever-changing winds, the rough and the changing elevations, it plays a lot longer and... More

Montauk Downs is big, beautiful, and filled with some of the toughest rough around. When you land in the tall grass and weeds you would be better off with a weed whacker than a golf club.

For obvious reasons, I did not play Golf this time around, but have many times in the past.. The course is challenging enough, and great for walking, no cart.. I am an avid Golfer, and this is one of the most fun courses I've played..

A little difficult and very challenging. Have a 9 handicap and scored a 84. Apparently it's almost always windy. Very windy. Lots of bunkers and a couple of deer wandering around. We would like to play again some time.

It's well groomed. This park also has a beautiful swimming pool makin g it seem one is in a country club. All is... More

Amazing golf course. Very accessible. Reasonable fees. Challenging enough for the most proficient, scratch handicap golfer, yet fun enough for the rest of us folk! Beautiful views, courteous staff.
