South Shore Golf Course ☆ Follow

Designed by Alfred H. Tull, ASGCA, the South Shore golf course opened in 1933. The 18-hole South Shore course features 6,317 yards of golf from the longest tees for a par of 72. The course rating is 69.9 and it has a slope rating of 113.

The entrance to the South Shore Golf Course is nestled among pine trees, flowers, hedges and ivy in the Staten Island neighborhood of Rossville. Set amid rolling hills on the south shore of Staten Island, this former country club course received extensive renovations in 2004. The reconstructed tees, cart paths and other turf improvements make it attractive but also challenging for serious golfers: players need length off the tee and precision play as they approach the greens.

The newly re-constructed tees, tee-to-green cart paths, extensive fairway drainage and countless turf improvements have vaulted this course to the top of the local's "Best Places to Play" list in Staten Island. The generous fairways often call for length off the tee, while the small greens demand precision iron play.
