Oyster Bay Town Supervisor Joseph Saladino and the Town Board today announced the completion of a $5 million upgrade at the Hon. Joseph Colby Golf Course in Woodbury. Improvements include new tee boxes on all 18 holes along with a new irrigation system for the entire course.
“We’re delivering a great experience for all golfers at our course and these improvements will certainly enhance their playing experience,” said Supervisor Saladino. “Make your reservation, enjoy the beautiful course and spend the day in the Town of Oyster Bay.”
The Honorable Joseph Colby Town of Oyster Bay Golf Course is situated on 121-acres of Long Island’s coveted Gold Coast. It is a challenging 18-hole, par 70, championship golf course that features meticulously manicured greens complete with cascading waterfalls, narrow fairways, water holes, sand and grass bunkers, as well as a putting green. Completing the scene is a turn-of-the-century mansion that offers a state-of-the-art catering venue that sits majestically in the heart of our beautiful golf course. The ambience of this one-time Gold Coast estate is rich with elegance and hospitality, but updated with modern amenities. People can enjoy a round of golf as well as the incredible setting while dining outdoors course side or hosting a private event.
