D.W. Stratton

Really beat up, but still a great day out with my boy.

Last tee time is 5pm. Be aware this is a walking course only. The Q35 and one other bus goes here. Car parking is $10.00 paid by cash or check only and you have to write your SSAN on the check. You can also buy a season pass Walking carts cost $7.00 payable in cash only. Besides that, it's a nice course with only par-3 holes. It's on Rockaway beach, so it has a nice food court, etc. I would give this a five but I hated paying cash for parking and the walking cart. They need accept debit/credit cards to earn a 5.

Kirk Leon

Nice par 3 course. Good practice for your short game. Lots of fun.

Dennis Janezic

Course was in terrible shape

Edward Murphy

Great shape

Miri Rosenberg

Awesome!!!!!!

Donald Dunn

Had good time fairway grass a little high, but greens good.

Nicholas G

Better than taking my kids to a driving range. Not for serious golfing. It was often unclear which way to walk to the next hole.

Victor Veytsman

It's fun to play... a bit small and weedy in some places but definitely a pleasure!

Dennis Weisenreider

Best par 3 I've ever played! Well kept nice layout. 18 holes take you about 2 hours.

I almost hate to write this (because more people will know how nice the course is!), but I believe in giving credit where credit is due. The current operators have brought this course back from the dead, which dates to a time before Sandy in 2012 that flooded the entire course in salt water and was the final nail in the coffin. I played the course yesterday and it was in excellent shape, especially for a busy public course. The last time I played here, a couple of years ago, you had to literally clear a path through the goose excrement before putting on the pockmarked greens.

I just simply love it. Unlike the pitch n putt in Flushing Meadows. U have a beautiful open, unobstructed course. Friendly atmosphere and the option to hit the beach before or after a round. Or simply hang out on the boardwalk. What more can you ask for really?

Kelly Kelley

Great pitch and putt course by the beach. I'm just learning the game, and it's a perfect way to work on your short game. I would give it five stars if it had more lefty tees. A lot of them are missing so I have to use the righty tees. Play some golf, eat some great food at the Riis Park Beach Bazaar and vendors, and hit the beach for day of fun.

Gary Gross

Nice place to work on tour swing.

Novice Quads

I've been playing there for the last 4 years and now they're under new ownership and they're even better

The reviewer who says the lady who runs the course is a soulless dragon may have been too harsh on soulless dragons. We arrived at 4:10pm, after paying $10 to park plus the toll to get over to the Riis Beach area. The lady behind the glass just wagged her finger at me rather than open the glass and speak. When I asked what she meant, she just yelled "CLOSED!!!!" still from behind the glass. I replied that their posted course hours say they close at 5pm. Again, her reply was a wagging finger and "I SAID CLOSED!!!" We left, out $10 for parking and two bridge-crossing tolls, but wiser knowing what we were up against. I called later in the week and found out from someone at Brooklyn Golf Center that Riis Beach Golf closes at six, but the last *tee* time is 4 pm. If you're looking for options, head up to Flushing Meadows Golf Center. The hours are better, the course is in better shape, and the people that run it probably won't singe your hair if you upset them.
