The Bethpage area was originally part of a land exchange between Thomas Powell and the indigenous people of the area. Sometimes called Bedelltown, the city grew rapidly after the Long Island Rail Road cut through the area and after nearby Farmingdale began to flourish. The Bethpage State Park opened in 1932 with pristine golf courses, drawing many visitors each year. Grumman set up in the area as well, the same company that built the Apollo Lunar Excursion Module. 

Golfers can't get enough of Bethpage thanks to this State Park. With five world-class golf courses, including the renowned Black Course, visitors flock to the area every year. There are also picnic areas, tennis courts, playing fields, and tons of trails. You can even hike, ski, or bike at the park. The Bethpage State Park also has a restaurant and Golf Pro Shop to cater to golfers.
