The Links at Cherry Creek
900 Reeves Ave. Riverhead, NY 631-369-6500
Opened in 1996, the Links offers players a layout of elevated tees and long, lush fairways. The signature hole is the final one, the 644-yard, par-6, the only such hole on Long Island.
The Links is much longer than the Woods course at 7,187 yards from the tips. Greens are tiered and vary in size.
Wind is almost always a factor, not to mention the ankle-deep rough that straddles the fairways.
