Bethpage State Park, Farmingdale NY

A great place right in my backyard that I don't take advantage of. I wish that they would focus more attention on amenities besides golf. They should make more environmental focused changes, and get people exploring nature. It's always golf, golf, golf.how about nature, trees, and conservation? !

My kids always love the playground. We have been there about 6 times the last few years. We biked in from different entrances a few times, played in the playground, played balls there etc. A few times we hiked different trails witt cub scouts. There are still a lot of trails we didn't explore yet.

Great state park. Beautiful grounds with a lot to do all seasons. Great children's playground, walking/biking paths, polo in the summer, etc. Lovely to have locally

Absolutely the best public course in NYS. The Black is a a challenge to walk and will leave you loving golf and questioning your game before coming right back to do it again! The online tee system is only problem I have with the Bethpage State Park golf system. Hit fairways and have some fun!

So I visited while out cycling to hit the paved bike path today. People stink, selfish folks not keeping to one side or the other, riding or walking 2-3 wide causing dangerous scenarios for cyclists.the patch work on the pavement is awful (especially for road cycles- not too bad for cycle cross, gravel, hybrid or mountain bikes but road cycling isn't really enjoyable).

$31 a player for twilight on top of $29 for a cart is ridiculous. When the cart doesn't even go off the cart path most holes.literally it stops you where ever their imaginary boundary likes are, and then forces you into reverse going about one mile per hour until you've left the imaginary restricted area. Not to bad of a course but everything else is enough to make this club get only 2 stars. Do better.

The true test of golf.

One of the hardest most spectacular golf courses you'll ever play with turtle shaped greens and over your head bunkers
A true challenge for every club in your bag.

This place is as advertised. Played the Black course, toughest course I've played by far. It was a beautiful course, couldn't even tell it was a public course based on the condition it was in.

Had a great time on the Blue course. Fairways were well maintained and the greens were fast. Played the round in 4 hrs 20 mins. Great day

If you like hiking, biking, polo or golf it's a great place.bike path can get bumping places and a little crowded but there is also mountain biking in the woods.probably could use more bathrooms

Very good courses but it is literally impossible to reserve tee time thru online. That's why I only give 3 stars. Course condition is always good here

Lots of trails to explore. $8 a car but worth it. Great way to soend a nice day. Lots of picnic tables, basketball courts, open fields, a volleyball court, playground, bike trail. Gorgeous!

We just sat outside, nice night, on the back porch with friends. Good Buffalo wings. Watching the golfers finish up on the black 18 hole.

Stunningly beautiful golf course, one of the top 5 hardest in the USA with thick rough and raised expertly bunkered greens. A delight to play for the single figure handicap golfer.

It's a lovely park for young kids ages 1-7. The playground is fun for kids and it has benches and decent tree shade for the adults. There's also a nice open grass area. Picnic tables etc.

Beautiful venue but sadly critically understaffed or mismanaged resulting in entrees that were served... COLD. Às in everyone seated at my table and surrounding tables - I asked. We were seated when the entrees were served. I had been to events here previously and it was great but terribly disappointed on this latest occasion. Servers were attentive and gracious. I told a server to alert the kitchen. No response from kitchen/management.
