Bellport Country Club ☆ Follow

Bellport Golf Club was designed by Seth Raynor and opened in 1899. As one of only a handful of golf courses in America that dates back to the 19th Century, Bellport's pristine 18-hole layout provides a compelling golf experience. Originally designed by golf architect Seth Raynor and modified by Robert Trent Jones and Bill Love, the golf course borders on the Great South Bay. Situated on South Country Road in the Village of Bellport, the Course measures 6,329 yards from the black tees; 6,011 yards from the blue tees; white tees measure 5,539 yards and ladies red tees measure 5,078. This Seth Raynor gem is a par 71 that is enjoyable to play for both high and low handicapped golfers.

Golf architect Bill Love completed a long range renovation of Bellport in 2004. He described his plan, based on an old blueprint and some early photos, as an "enhancement" of a classic design rather than a restoration. At just over 6,300 yards, par 71 from the back tees, Bellport is a quaint little layout, not a championship venue. One arguable Raynor original is the 368-yard par-4 17th, with a punchbowl green tucked beyond a 50-yard stretch of some of the biggest chocolate drop mounds. Bellport Golf Club is a semi-private club open to Members, Incorporated Village of Bellport residents, and their guests.
