Ringing in a New Decade with New Developments
It is a very exciting time as we ring in a new decade at the Port Jefferson Country Club. We have initiated many positive new amenities across all areas of the Club, including establishing a new Pickle Ball program; a new Golf Pro Shop design and all new apparel and equipment options; a brand new score board patio featuring outdoor dining and cocktail service; a wireless booster installation in the clubhouse cupola; refurbishment of the membership services area on the first level of the clubhouse; relocation of the starter shed to the first hole; and new tee signs and yardage books for our beautiful championship golf course. And... the Turn is BACK and better than ever!

On behalf of the Board of Trustees, and as your Mayor, I am thrilled to invite and welcome you to the 2020 season here at our very own crown jewel, the Port Jefferson Country Club. We have so many exciting new endeavors going on this year. On the greens, we couldn’t be prouder of Brian MacMillan and his crew in creating an A #1 course with views and vistas unlike any other on Long Island. We can all agree that the condition of our course has improved over the last several years and we are proud of Brian and his team for working with all of the variables that they have, including a very tight budget, to continue their hard work on our links. We have a great team with Bill Mackedon and Jake Anderson catering to our golf membership, running tournaments, providing lessons and always greeting us with a “smile” and a “how are you today”. We have more residents getting involved in the game of golf than ever before and the programs that they are offering to “beginners of every age” are creating golfers who will enjoy the game for a lifetime.
Our tennis programs are robust and we are so thrilled to welcome back Eric Dubin from World Gym to lead the tennis team with instructional lessons provided to individuals and groups, including workshops where they work on everything from your backhand, your serve or even your trick drop volley! We were happy to keep Court 4 in place for yet another season, and, we are adding the fastest growing sport of Pickle Ball to our racket sport facility. Renovation to the Member Services area, the Locker Room facilities, the All Purpose Room, and a newly installed state-of-the-art fitness room are just a few of the amenities that we are bringing to make your encounter at our PJCC a holistic experience.
I think we can all look forward to embracing our Country Club spirit of camaraderie whether you are enjoying a cocktail on the deck, a quick burger at the bar, breakfast at The Turn or a new sport at the Pickle Ball Complex – we are all in!

The golf course has come through this mild winter in great shape. You'll notice we did a lot of work over the winter, including cleaning up the area between the driving range and the first tee. Our focus for our beautiful course as we wind down the off-season is to complete the aeration process before opening and complete our annual clean up and set up as the weather allows. I am looking forward to welcoming everyone back!
