I’ve driven by Willow Creek well over a hundred times. I got a few glimpses of the course through the gates, but I didn’t know what a beautiful piece of land it is.
I’ve played a majority of the golf courses on Long Island at this point. Growing up, I ventured to almost every single public course available. In my adult life, I’ve been fortunate to also play some of the classic private clubs through tournament play and friends.
I played at Willow Creek on a Wednesday afternoon, which you would expect not to be peak popularity. It was a beautiful fall day, which brings out more golfers than usual, and the course was crowded.
Any course is going to have its positives and negatives. In my opinion, the positives win out at Willow Creek. It is a beautiful golf course that will challenge every level of player.
