The New Turtle Cove Golf and Baseball Center


Bronx, Westchester County and Manhattan residents look no further for a brand new outdoor sports facility.  This place has everything for the golfer: pro shop, lessons, driving range, latest technology. New batting cages for softball and baseball.  Great  for leagues, and schools.  Miniature golf for the entire family. Affordable.  Here is a link:  www.turtlecovegolfcenter.com

An idea for Manhattan golfers...take the number 6 train to Pelham Bay Park, then a quick bus ride and you can  warm up at Turtle Cove or  take a lesson and in less than 5 minutes you can be on the Pelham Split Rock Golf Course for a round of golf.


Introducing the New Turtle Cove Golf and Baseball Center

Turtle Cove is back and better than ever!  New ownership and management has given The Bronx and lower Westchester a first class outdoor sports facility for everyone to enjoy.

Turtle Cove Golf Center is the New York area’s premiere golf practice range, featuring private full-swing practice stations, short game area, PGA instruction, golf fitness programs, miniature golf, batting cages, event space and sports camps - all in beautiful Pelham Bay Park.

Turtle Cove would like to work with neighborhood schools and PTA to create after school golf programs to introduce neighborhood kids to the game of golf.

We invite Little Leagues and local school Baseball Programs to practice at our brand new batting cages. Athletic Directors, Coaches and Parents contact toni@turtlecovegolfcenter.com.

Stop by your new neighborhood outdoor sports facility and enjoy the day!

Arthur Avenue ~ Little Italy

If you have never been and you love Italian food then this is a must visit.  The shopping in the market is old world.  Full of tradition.  Come here to shop, eat, browse and take in the real Little Italy in N.Y. that is located in The Bronx.            http://www.arthuravenuebronx.com/

    About Our Neighborhood

    Ask any New Yorker about Arthur Avenue in the Bronx and you get either puzzlement or a flood of loving sentiment about the real Little Italy of New York, the best place for bread, pasta, meat, pastries,espresso machines, the only place to buy Italian sausage, and more. The paradox is real: Many New Yorkers never heard of the place, while for others it’s home away from home … although it is often a well-kept secret.

    We’re describing the Belmont section of the Bronx. Whether you call it Belmont, Little Italy of the Bronx or Arthur Avenue, the neighborhood beats its other rivals in the sheer number of establishments offering fine Italian-American foods, dining, house wares and other goods. The quality and values are tops – a recent ranking confirmed once again by critics like the Zagat Survey whose readers repeatedly give “Best Buy” status to more Arthur Avenue shops than any other neighborhood in New York City.
