The National Golf Club in Australia, encompassing the Long Island course, offers a distinct golfing experience within the esteemed Sandbelt region of Victoria. Unlike its namesake in the United States, this “Long Island” course, a part of The National Golf Club’s prestigious collection, presents a parkland-style layout, albeit one influenced by the region’s sandy terrain. Designed by Oliver Gordon in 1938, the course is a respected “hidden gem,” characterized by its tree-lined fairways, strategically placed bunkers, and subtly undulating greens. 

The course demands thoughtful play and precision, providing a challenging yet enjoyable round for its members. The 2015 merger with the former Long Island Country Club further solidified its place within The National Golf Club’s impressive portfolio. Situated on the fringe of the Sandbelt and the gateway to the Mornington Peninsula, this Long Island course offers a unique blend of parkland aesthetics and Sandbelt characteristics, contributing to The National Golf Club’s reputation as a premier golfing destination in Australia.
