About this course
Forest Park Golf Course sits within Forest Park in Woodhaven, Queens, just off the Jackie Robinson Parkway. Architect Tom Bendelow originally laid out the course in 1896, making it one of the older municipal layouts in New York City. Architect Stephen Kay led a renovation in 1995 that included a significant lengthening of holes and construction of a new clubhouse. The 18-hole public course now plays to about 6,053 yards at a par of 70, moving over hilly, wooded ground with tree-lined fairways, elevated greens, and three holes that bring water into play. It is a city-owned municipal course, currently managed under the GolfNYC program, and welcomes walk-in and reserved play.

The Golf Club at Middle Bay
Oceanside, NY · 13 mi away
A semi-private, links-style course on Long Island's south shore in Oceanside, with views across the water toward Jones Beach and the barrier islands. Alfred Tull designed the course, which opened in 1955 as the private Middle Bay Country Club, and Kipp Schulties led later renovation work. The par-72 layout plays to 6,819 yards, and wind off the bay is a factor on nearly every hole. The club nearly closed for good after Hurricane Sandy but reopened under new operation.

Harbor Links Golf Course
Port Washington, NY · 14 mi away
Harbor Links Golf Course in Port Washington was built on the site of a former sand mine and opened in 1998 to a design by Michael Hurdzan and Dana Fry. The links-style layout uses the exposed, sandy terrain left by more than a century of mining, including split fairways and a prominent rocky bluff. Enormous volumes of sand were extracted from the site historically for use in New York City construction. The course is public and operated by Nassau County on Long Island's North Shore.
