About
Pinch Brook Golf Course in Florham Park may be a short course, but it should not be underestimated. The layout offers all the challenges of a championship course conveniently wrapped in an executive-length course. Water hazards come into play on nearly every hole, including a pond on the seventh that is shaped like the state of New Jersey. The elevated and undulating greens putt fast and true. They present a test for even the most seasoned golfers. The par-3 holes are particularly tough. Most of them feature strategically placed bunkers fiercely guarding the double-tiered greens, that or a forced carry. The golf course is great for honing your short game skills or for squeezing in a quick but challenging round. Pinch Brook G.C. is hailed by locals as the best short course in northern New Jersey.

Great short course
There grounds are in great shape, fast green and nicely manicured fairways made for a great day.
My only disappointment was the slow group in front of us and no rangers on duty during our outing.
They all had no care in the world until we said something on the third hole when we approached them on the tee. The group in front of them was nowhere to be found or for them to blame.
Course Improvement
I was very happy to see that the course has been upgraded in several areas. There were flowers in pots, sand in the traps, and the greens had a good, 1st cut around them.
This course sucks. Not only is it super small, but the pace of play is incredibly slow. I can not understand how a par 68 course takes around 5 hours to complete.
Fun course
Fun course but a little pricey for half the course being par 3s.
Barry was not a friendly starter
The starter was not friendly or inviting at all. Bring John back or consider having Barry do something else.
Classy
The course added a second cut to the fairways and the greens are the best of all the Morris cty courses and really maybe only comparable to Heron Glen. Bottom line I know you see 9 par 3s but if you want a great course and some extra distance just play the blue tees. If you don’t play this course you’ll be missing out on a gem 💎
Way too overpriced
Cool course. Entirely too overpriced for what you get and the condition of the course. 9 par 3’s and bad course conditions for $79 walking is absurd.
Overall review
The course was in good shape. Although there were multiple par three’s some were challenging with water which kept it interesting. The greens had plenty of elevation changes which kept it interesting.
Horrible course and made us pay for a dart when we already did on GolfNow.
I am very disappointed with this course. I also want to say that golfnow provided us with the wrong price. They said the course was $260 between everyone including a CART. When we got to the course we had to pay $360 so they made us pay an extra $100 when golfnow already said that the $260 was included with the CARTS.
I really hope golfnow helps us out and paysh my group and I our money back as we deserve to.
The Worst Course Ever Played
The course is much too short, under 5000 yards. It was too congested that we finally finished by about 5 hours. It looks the management of the club is so greedy that they tried to get in too many people especially at the back 9. Never be back.
Nice course to walk
This is one of our favorite public courses. The only downsides are no range, no bar cart and no towel water bucket. They make up for it with gorgeous green conditions, friendliest staff and tasteful crowd. This course is perfect for walking and pushing. The variety of holes are amazing and yet not many uphill inclines. Highly recommend.
Great course
Love this course. It’s beautifully maintained. Staff are super friendly.
