Voted
the 1983 Golf Digest "Resort Course of the Year,"
and ranked by the same publication among the top 50
public courses in the country in 1990, Oyster Bay
Golf Links is a rare, harmonious blend of the penal,
heroic and strategic philosophies of golf course architecture.
Architect Dan Maples and developer Larry Young created
a course where variety and innovation are the name
of the game. Consider severe marsh-oriented holes,
two island green par threes, strategic (and stunningly
beautiful) fresh water lakes, long holes, short holes.the
consummate combination of shot making requirements.
The par-70 course plays to just under 6,700 yards,
but cavernous bunkers, wickedly undulating greens
and lengthy par 4's make Oyster Bay is a test of
one's
mettle.
