Pace of Play Issues

Be cautious when booking a tee time after 8:15am. While the staff is incredibly friendly and welcoming, the course unfortunately struggles with pace-of-play management. Without proper monitoring or enforcement, rounds can easily stretch to five hours. It can become so slow that continuing your game may feel pointless. Great people, but the experience suffers due to poor flow on the course.

Great day, course OK

I had a great day golfing. Great company, great service from employees on course, great weather. Everything was great except the course itself. Most of the coirse was good. But bad thing were spots on the course that weren't great. Goose poop all over 1 green. A few bare tee boxes. Some Fringes were dirt not grass. Then worst of all was no grass in parts of some fairways. You are supposed to be rewarded when hitting the fairway not penalized by hitting off dirt or burnt out grass. I don't hit many fairways so you can see my disappointment. All in all, it's a good course for the money. Just hoping it doesn't get worse if we don't get more rain.

Bad shape

Staff is extremely helpful and friendly but paying what we paid for a mostly hard fairway and greens not worth it.

It’s in bad shape!

The staff are super friendly and the club house has cold beer and good food. But the course is in terrible shape.

Poor Condition

This course was a fun layout but the conditions were less than optimal. The greens were surprisingly in decent shape, not full of weeds or anything but were very slow with no true break. The fairways and tee boxes though left much to be desired. Many tee boxes were virtually barren of grass and were nothing but sand. Others were so hard I should have brought a hammer to get my tee in the ground. The fairways were hit or miss, so were nice, weed free. Others were just dead collapsed brown grass. Not a lot of weeds or anything but just bare in many places.

Poor condition

Played Cranbury for nearly 25 years and this year one of the worst conditions. Disease on fairways and greens. Little grass on tee boxes. Really hope they fix it.

Perfect weather

Had a fantastic experience at Cranbury Golf Club! The course was in great shape, but what really made the day special was the staff. Everyone was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and went out of their way to be helpful. You can tell they truly care about making guests feel comfortable and appreciated. I’ll definitely be coming back—huge thanks to the team for creating such a positive atmosphere!

Course not in great shape

The course was not in great condition. Greens were not in great shape, and the fairways were beat up. Pace of play was also fairly slow. No sign of a Ranger or anyone to speed groups up.

Cranbury golf course Review

This course is in need of a major repair. Fairways are in are all chewed up. I don’t think it’s all due to summer heat burn out.

Riding a cart in the rough is dangerously. You never know when you are going to a big bump and get thrown of your cart.

Other than that, it’s a good golf course with very friendly and helpful staff.

Mean ranger

Everything was great besides the ranger giving me a hard time for being 2 minutes late to the tee box when it was extremely slow.

Little rough around the edges

Always enjoy playing this course every couple of years because it’s close by and a fun layout, but it’s just not as in good shape as the five county courses, but it easily could be. They just need to clean up some of the traps with weeds in them, overgrown edges, or in need of more sand, plus there are lots of bare spots in fairways and even more unacceptably so, on significant sections the tee boxes.
