Designed by A.W. Tillinghast and opened in 1936. The demanding par-71 municipal course is known for its warning sign, deep bunkering and severe elevation changes; host of two U.S. Opens, the 2019 PGA Championship and the 2025 Ryder Cup.

The warning sign at the first tee is accurate: it is very long and very hard. It is also a state park course where a New Yorker pays seventy dollars to play a U.S. Open venue.
