Rating 72.2

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.

Mid-December golfl

Always a tough course but played a little easier since there wasn't much rough. Pace of play was very slow so we ended up playing the front nine again. Course was in very good shape especially for mid-December. Would do it again next week if the deals are still available.

Great value here with golf now hot deal. Course was pretty good other than some choppy rough around some of the greens which was inconsistent. My really only gripe was not having a cart girl on the course in the afternoon on a saturday. thats inexcusable

Great condition, full golf facility

Complete with a range, putting green, practice bunker/green and chipping/pitching green this facility is definitely somewhere a serious golfer should check out.

The greens are perfect and run pretty quick. Some of the hole locations were very tough if you got on the wrong side of the pin.

The fairways and bunkers were perfect. Tee boxes had been aerated, but were level.

Over rated

For a club that preaches fast play,furthest from true ,no rangers or not working, very slow pace ,less than cordial pro shop staff.Course conditions ok Ironic was told by staff member when we INQUIRED about two other courses in area,that " they were not very good" instead of criticizing, better improve your own product.food pretty good but service indifferent
