Casperkill Golf Club

Played the course on ⁸⁄₁₄ for the fist time ever, as we commuted 1.5 hours + to get there. Went on a Groupon — 4 players for $ 130. 18 holes with a cart. Tee time was 11am and we got started at 10:45am. Carts had GPS in them, which was very, very nice. Checked a few yardages against my Izzo GPS and they were within a couple of yards.
Course was in good condition given the hot weather. You can tell they have been watering on a regular basis. Greens were very receptive and some approach shots for the group backed up on the green. Greens were smooth but not overly fast, again probably due to the heat and the forecast for more hot weather.
The course is very deceptive. If you have never played there, MOST of the greens are elevated and required you to hit at least 1 or 2 clubs more on the approach. We played from 6150 yards but it played like 6500 – 6600 yards.
The only thing the group didn’t care for was the lack of a first cut of rough. You were either in the fairway or the rough. I’d suggest that the maintenance staff introduce a first cut of rough, maybe 4 yards on each side of the fairway. All of us had at least a couple of tee shots miss the fairway by a foot or less and we had nasty lies in the rough.
No first cut is why I give the course 4 stars. Golf staff was friendly and pace of play was good — 4 hours and 20 minutes. Very enjoyable and would go back.

Went for a surprise party at one of the club buildings here, no golfing involved and that’s for the better bc I really don’t understand golf as a sport or hobby. But thats my own deal.
Great view on the covered patio deck, clean bathrooms, friendly bartender and nice atmosphere. Not sure if the golf club itself does the catering but that was only so-​so. A romaine salad with blueberrys, some type of soft, possibly goat cheese and other typical salad goodies with what im guessing was a raspberry vinegrette, chicken piccata, a cut of beef, salmon, roasted tots, and seasoned green beans and broccoli. The chicken was AWESOME, tons of flavor and not dried out in the least, and the tots came a close second. The rest I was wondering what the hell happened. The salad was so putridly sweet and I dont even know if putridly is a word but that was it. Über overdressed and I took one bite and pushed it to the side. More like a raspberry molasses yogurt on it versus a light dressing. The salmon was clearly farmed and overly fishy but in my wine induced hunger I ate it anyway. The vegatables were not seasoned so I doused them in salt n pepa to make the broccoli edible. I stay away from green beans. We have a long lived dispute that will never be settled.
Overall the wine and corn-​hole game as a finish to the evening was fun and spending time with the extended family was great. Food left me asking our driver to stop at T-​Bells on the way home. Maybe it was an off day or maybe that was their norm. Edible but i’ve had better. Still it was a nice venue and weather was perfecto.
One more thing they could add are better marked signs for each specific area on the grounds.

I have golfed at Casperkill for over 15 years and it has always been very well maintained. I truly enjoy playing at this course. I think it is a tad bit overpriced, but ultimately you do get what you pay for.

An hour and a half outside of the NYC Metro area, Casperkill is a great alternative to many Suffolk County golf courses regarding price, pace of play and layout.
Mountain golf is not befitting a term, but there are enough elevation changes, one feels like a mountain goat while traversing the terrain.
Short in length from the white tees and a bear from the tips, Casperkill is all about target golf and quality golf shot making as you try to manage yourself around the 6600 yards of pristine fairways and greens. When you strike a put, the ball holds the line as well as any course I have played, that is not private, which Casperkill actually was.
The rough is deceptive, although not particularly tall it is difficult on certain spots just off the fairway to get enough club on the ball to make an attempt at the greens. Green-​side rough I did not feel was difficult, your approach mis-​hit can be converted into an up and down par.
There are specials that run a player $ 50.00 with a cart and lunch which is a very reasonable price, so grab a few golf junkie buddies and give it a try.
This was my fourth time playing here and it is always well worth the time and money.

Great golf course. It is well maintained and challenging. You can play it quite long on the blacks. Price is reasonable, especially for a senior walking @ $ 28.00. They offer many specials many with lunch. Only downside is that the club house is rather small and lacks style, however the deck is great with nice views of 9 and 18. This was formerly an IBM owned employee course.
