Rockville Course
Rockville Links Club, carved into the heart of Rockville Centre, stands as a testament to early 20th-century golf course design. Its gently rolling parkland terrain, typical of Long Island's landscape, presents a classic test that emphasizes strategic play over sheer distance. Original architect Devereux Emmet crafted a layout where subtle contours and strategically placed bunkers dictate approach shots. While not nationally prominent, the course provides a challenging and enjoyable experience for its membership. The layout favors a thoughtful game, rewarding accuracy and course management rather than overpowering length. The course is known to have a few blind shots that are a nod to the era in which it was built. The Rockville Links Club membership is known for its deep ties to the surrounding community, fostered over generations. In addition to golf, the club is a sought after venue for weddings and catered affairs.

The journey to Rockville Links Club begins at either LaGuardia (LGA) or JFK International Airport, both situated within thirty minutes of the club's Long Island location, or alternatively at Newark (EWR) across the Hudson. From any of these metropolitan gateways, the drive transitions swiftly from the urban sprawl of Queens or Brooklyn into the quieter, tree-lined neighborhoods of Nassau County, a fifteen- to twenty-minute passage that marks the shift from city to the more measured pace of Long Island's established golf country. For those arriving by private aviation, Farmingdale Republic Airport (FRG) lies just minutes away and offers a more discreet entry point to the region. The final approach winds through the residential streets of Rockville Centre itself, where the club's understated entrance and manicured grounds announce arrival at one of the East Coast's most storied and deliberately private links-style venues.
