Red/Blue at Ramblewood Country Club
About
For more than half a century, Ramblewood Country Club has been one of the top public golf courses in southern New Jersey. The club offers 27 holes of championship golf that are played as three different 18-hole combinations. The Red/Blue Course starts with one of the original nines from 1962, while the back nine was added 10 years later. The Red nine has large, subtly undulating greens bordered by strategically placed bunkers. Be prepared for a few forced carries over water. The challenges are nicely balanced with forgiving fairways that have generous landing areas. The Blue nine is an interesting contrast to the front of the golf course. It's routed through mature pine forests and it has tighter fairways though the greens are just as undulating as the Red, making course management the key to scoring well.

Worth playing again
I live an hour away, but would make the drive again to play here. I played the white and blue nines and would like to come back to try the red nine.
Poor time management of players on course.
Directed to play blue to white.When I got to the white tee to begin the second nine, there was a foursome on the tee apparently beginning their round and several other foursomes in front of them, NOT from the blue course.
The second nine was tediously slow,waiting on every hole, groups of people jumping around ahead of each other. Apparently after speaking to the foursome in front of me, the backup was due to the end of a best ball outing in which there best ball was not very good. DON’t book times if you can't Control tournament pace of play. It’s nor fair to the other on the course.
outing central
I realize this is not a daily thing but the day I was there is was golf outing central. I can't rate pace of play because of that. The White nine was nice and looks similar to the Red nine. The holes were ok but got the feeling I was playing in someones backyard. When we turned to the blue nine it was a totally different feel. It had a more traditional look and feel and the holes seems to have more character. It was tighter than the other part of the course but it wasn't so tight that it was unfair. I really liked the Blue nine. I took a few photos on my phone but haven't put them into computer. Tough photo shoot on many holes with houses always in background. Need time to move around to put them out of the photos.
Ramblewood is improving
The course is improving since the Jaworski organization has taken it over. They started with the facilities so that more revenue could come from the bar, restaurant and catering events. That has been a major improvement. The couse is slowly improving but it is noticible.
Greens ran true are we consistent. This course has really completed a 180 under new management. Do yourself a favor and add Ramblewood for a future round.
Time well spent
Played Red followed by Blue tracks, instead of planned Red & White. White was closed following a day of steady rain the day before. Ground is saturated, and we played cart path only; resulting in a whole lotta walking. This course is a friendly one, as was the staff. The starter was juggling start times due to White 9 being closed for the day, but was still polite and accommodating. Pace was good, despite all the walking from cart paths. Although the bunkers were soaked, I could tell they're normally well-kept. A good course to develop your game. Greens were soft, well-kept, medium to large, not many ball marks, and easy to putt. Plenty of greenside bunkers to hone your sand skills. Hazards and OB were well marked, as were the fairways. Although individual holes are by and large unmemorable, the positive overall experience definitely is. A good video course tour is on their facebook page. Only negative I have is there is no driving range. My first trip to a Jaworski property, and won't be the last.
Loved it, we played the Red and White combo. They were using Blue for players just playing 9 holes.
I am far fro being a golfer, but had a good time, and a good guide, for this outing. I will definitely play it again.
Decent place to play...
3 9-hole courses. We played on a Sunday afternoon and it wasn't crowded so pace of play not an issue. It's definitely not as nice as Downingtown CC (another Jaws course) so could only give this a 3 star. The fairways had nice turf, but were kind of torn up in some areas. No real character on two 9s that we played. A lot of similar and unmemorable holes. Not a bad round, but nothing all that special either though I did enjoy the par 3's. Good variety on distances on those. A couple times we had to wait on random people (not golfers) on the course. Once 2 people on bicycles rode across the fairway after 3 out of the 4 of hit of us our tee shots. Really? How does that even happen?
This course need
Better care of the greens. The cart path was real bad. I wouldn't pay the full price to play there.
Solid mid level course
Ramblewood is a very solid course with a fair and fun layout. Each separate 9 holes has a different style layout and all of them are in good shape. In the Cherry Hill area, this course offers the best bang for the buck.
As Average as You Can Get
Ramblewood is a average course with an average layout, average difficulty, average conditions, average amenities (no driving range but nice restaurant in the clubhouse), and it was average pace of play. I don't know, it just seemed to be a typical public course, nothing flashy about it. I just left feeling very.....average.
Getting better!
The course is definitely maintained better since Jaws bought it. A lot of trees taken down which is improving the turf conditions on the course. Greens were in best shape I have seen in years. Not amazing design but under $40 with cart worth playing.
Jaws should be embarrassed.
Jaws should be embarrassed to have his name associated with this course. T boxes were terrible, grass cut too high. Greens were terrible, recently airrated, very slow and bumpy. I should have been informed of this when booking and then I could have made an informed choice. I informed the person in the pro shop and he apologized. I should have been offered some sort of credit. Plenty of better courses for what they charge. I will not be playing there again.
Not one of Ron Jawroski's Best
The White course was in fair condition and the Blue was better, but still just average.
The best part of the day was the bar and cheeseburger after the round.
Chilly but sunny day First of Winter
This establishment is golden. I drove past it for 35 years on my way to work...But it was on my bucket list asap retirement. Now 2 years later I realize it's not only convenient but well run by good people.I must say -timing your tee times is the way to get best value ---unless you are limited availability...Then you justify max $$ for your time.Overall solid place to play.Staff is customer friendly.
Another great round
The only reason pace of play was slow, was because they had a 9 hole closed (White) Usually this course has a great pace of play. Jaws did a very nice job with the course. The greens are fast and firm, and the fairways are like carpet. It doesn't get much better then this course. Difficult for all levels. If you're reading this, I'm definitely telling you to give it a shot and you won't regret it!
Course was like my game...
Respectable, but in need of improvement.
Played the Red, which was pretty uninteresting, then the blue, which was tighter and more challenging. Went out solo on a Monday, caught up with two members around the 4th hole who couldn't have been nicer, and certainly helped me navigate it.
The course had a fair amount of burnt spots, making it tough to hit from those areas. Traps are ok- I became somewhat familiar with them unfortunately. Greens were fine, though again, pretty uninteresting.
I heard Jaws is putting a lot of money into the place, and the clubhouse was pretty nice- the bar looked good, though I didn't stop for one. So hopefully they keep that up and put some renovation into the course to make it more memorable.
Nice course
I don't live in the immediate area but I was visiting family so I decided to give this course a try. The last time I had played here was long before Jaworski too over. The course conditions (I played Red and White - the Blue course was a little backed up), especially the greens, are much improved. If I'm in the area again I would definitely play here.
