Blue Heron Pines Golf Club
About
The Blue Heron Pines Golf Club consists of two award-winning courses called the East and the West. Located 15 minutes outside of Atlantic City, these public golf courses provide a challenging game and have been touted by many New Jersey publications as the best 18-hole course on the Jersey Shore.
Each golf course had a different designer so they do have some differences. The West Course is relatively flat with narrow fairways and fast greens. Water hazards also come into play on seven holes. The East Course on the other hand features wide fairways and difficult bunkers. The East Course also follows a links-style layout and is meant to be played fast and firm. For those who want to play the courses but aren't at the top of their game yet, the club offers golf instruction.

Course Conditions
The course was under water. I understand that they cannot control weather but they should have forewarned players that the casual water dominated the course. I estimate that over 90 % of the bunkers had standing water in them - and lots of it. My playing partner and I collective lost 5 balls in the water that was I t he sand traps!! The water was so deep and murky you could not even find a ball in a bunker!
Again, the staff should have either closed the course or warn players of the conditions before they begin their rounds. To charge full weekend rates for the course conditions today was BS
Blue Heron
Great course. Fairways and greens in great shape. Very good 1st time experience.
Great golf course with really good food and drinks also! Greens were good and fairways in decent shape..
We golfed here today a great round, reasonably priced & challenging layout. All staff were pleasant and friendly, a special hats off to Gary our bag drop guy..
Super nice, we will play here again!
Great shape
Course was in great shape, and pace of play was perfect. I do hold the course accountable for my horrible putting for the day they should really put the cups closer to where I hit my ball. :) Great day for a round of golf, great job Jaws!
Post Trop Storm-pretty good
Other than traps being filled w/water, which the staff was pumping out, the course was in better condition than most local daily fee courses.
Staff needs to more consistently have masks & hand sanitizer should be available.
Gotta try it
First time here. Booked a twilight game to try out and will definitely be coming back to get a full 18 in.
Great coarse layout. Very playable yet challenging at the same time; the way the bunkers and water was laid out made it a lot of fun here.
Great course
Wide fairways with beautiful site lines. Large greens with lots of undulations. Well placed bunkers without being excessive.
Solid Course in Excellent Condition
Have played Blue Heron Pines on numerous occasions. Solid layout and the course was in excellent condition. Very much enjoyed the round and look forward to playing there again soon!
Great course
Course was in awesome condition. Greens were receptive, quick, really enjoyable. Great value too during the week. Nice layout, will continue to come back
Great course

Go play!
Friendly staff. Good winter conditions. Well maintained. We’ll be back!
Amazing course
This was a very fun course and I am glad I had the chance to play at blue heron pines. It was a little challenging but not impossible for the average golfer. I would definitely like to go back and play more rounds
