Wind Watch Golf & Country Club ☆ Follow

Wind Watch Golf & Country Club is an 18-hole semi-private course located in Hauppauge on Long Island's North Shore, New York. Originally built in 1971 and redesigned by Joe Lee in 1990, the course was further updated by architect Stephen Kay in 1997. The layout spans 6,497 yards and features challenging design with water hazards in play on 13 holes and more than 70 bunkers throughout. The course is characterized by elevated terrain, with the opening hole positioned at one of Long Island's highest points, providing panoramic views of the North Shore. Notable features include tree-lined fairways, 12 lakes and ponds with fountains, a cascading waterfall, and an 11-acre practice facility combining grass and artificial turf surfaces. The signature 18th hole is a dogleg par 4 with an uphill approach leading to a three-tiered green, the most challenging on the course.

The course is open to the general public as a daily-fee facility and hosts social events, corporate outings, and tournaments. It operates under the Invited Clubs network, which manages over 200 golf and country clubs nationwide. Wind Watch offers comprehensive amenities including a clubhouse with fine dining, multiple practice facilities, and instruction programs designed around the American Development Model for junior and adult golfers.
