Sunken Meadow State Park operates three nine-hole courses on Long Island's North Shore in Kings Park, with the Green and Red nines forming one of the available eighteen-hole combinations. Alfred H. Tull designed the layout, which opened in the 1960s as part of New York State's expansion of public golf facilities. Tull, a regional architect active in the mid-twentieth century, created several municipal and daily-fee courses across the Northeast, typically emphasizing playability and efficient maintenance for high-volume public play. The course occupies rolling terrain characteristic of Long Island's glacial moraine landscape, with moderate elevation changes and mature tree-lined fairways. The property sits near Long Island Sound, though the routing itself does not feature water views. The design reflects the practical considerations of public golf from its era: straightforward holes that accommodate varied skill levels, minimal forced carries, and greens sized for steady pace of play. The conditioning and challenge level vary with seasonal maintenance budgets typical of state-operated facilities. Sunken Meadow serves a diverse population of daily-fee players from Long Island and the greater New York metropolitan area. The facility includes a driving range and basic clubhouse amenities. As with most state park courses, it offers accessible green fees and represents an option for golfers seeking affordable play in a region where private club membership and premium daily-fee rates dominate the market.
