The Red Course at Bethpage State Park is the second-most celebrated layout on the property, designed by A.W. Tillinghast in 1935. It shares the Black Course's championship DNA but with a slightly more accessible challenge. The Red stretches to over 7,000 yards from the tips through the same mature hardwood forest and features Tillinghast's signature bunkering and green complexes. Despite playing second fiddle to the Black, the Red is a top-10 public course in New York in its own right and regularly appears on Golfweek's Best Municipal list.
Bethpage State Park: Red Course's peak-season green fee is around $90 per round. Off-peak rates vary by season. Call the pro shop for current shoulder pricing. Cart, range balls, and caddie fees are typically separate. Estimate the full Long Island trip cost
