How Quickly Does an Island Green Membership Pay for Itself?

Six rounds per season is where membership starts saving you money. Ten rounds, the savings are clear. Twenty rounds, each additional round costs you nothing.

Most members play well above the breakeven point. The unlimited structure removes the mental calculation of "is today worth the green fee?" You play when you want, as often as you want. Tuesday afternoon with nothing planned? Walk on. Saturday morning with a group? You're already booked.

Benefits Beyond Green Fees

Unlimited rounds are the primary draw, but membership includes additional benefits:

Priority tee times — Members book before the public, including weekends and holidays. Saturday morning tee times in July are competitive. Members get first access.
Pro shop discount — Members pay less for gear, apparel, and accessories at the on-site pro shop. Over a full season, the discount adds up on equipment purchases.
Member events — Island Green runs events throughout the season. The annual Member Appreciation Day cookout is the best-attended. Twilight rounds with informal competition run on weekday evenings.
Guest privileges — Members bring guests at reduced rates. If you're the golfer in your friend group, membership gives you a home course to bring people to.

The Community

Regulars know each other here. The property is small enough that you see the same faces on the tee sheet week after week. Friendships form between members who started as strangers sharing a tee time on a Tuesday morning.

The Birmann family has maintained this atmosphere for over 100 years. The same family runs the course, the restaurant, and the Lodge. Staff stay. Members stay.

Some members have been with Island Green for decades. Their children now play. That kind of multi-generational membership is rare at courses this size and says more about the place than any description.

The Course

If you haven't played Island Green yet, do that before deciding on membership. The course is USGA-rated, 18 holes, par 71, 6,283 yards, slope 120, course rating 69.2. It plays well across a range of handicaps. The signature island green is the standout hole, but the full layout holds up.

Members who play week after week learn the greens, the wind patterns, and the elevation changes. Each round teaches you something the last one didn't. The course is varied enough to stay interesting across a full season of play.

Season Structure

Memberships cover April through October. The course closes for winter, and the grounds crew spends the off-season preparing for the next year. Renewals open in late winter.

April starts slow. Tee times are wide open and the course is in peak post-winter shape. By June, the summer rhythm kicks in: more players, busier weekends, longer days. Fall is the favorite stretch for many members. Cooler air, thinner crowds, and foliage that changes the back nine week by week.

How to Join

If you live within an hour of Greenville, NY, and you play golf more than a handful of times per year, this membership is worth a look. The course, the on-site restaurant, and the Lodge make Island Green a complete package rather than a course-only membership.

What a Member Season Looks Like

April: the course opens and you're one of the first players out. Spring greens roll fast. You have the fairways to yourself on weekday mornings.

May: the weather warms. You settle into a rhythm of one or two rounds per week. Twilight rounds on long evenings become possible.

June through August: peak season. Weekend tee times matter more. You use your priority booking. Member events run. The cookout on Member Appreciation Day brings out members you haven't seen since October.

September and October: the best golf of the year. Cooler temperatures, spectacular foliage, and thinning crowds. Many members say fall is worth the membership fee on its own.

November: the course closes. You start counting the months until April.
