Rancocas Golf Club

A nice well paced round good conditions but greens could have been faster

This is a Real Golf Course for real golfers. Reading some of the reviews shows that some Of those who came to play are just critics with no Substantial ability to play. This is not intended to be a beginners play ground so stay in the FAIRWAY!!!!!

I paid ahead of time through GolfNow. Upon arrival everybody was nice enough. I received my receipt from the clubhouse to get to the starter so I could see off with my friend. I paid for both of us ahead of time. The starter literally yelled at us like we are little kids telling us that we only paid for one person. Even though I showed him my credit card statement. Which clearly stated that I paid $80. So if that course was $80 for one person I seriously got robbed. I had to store my tea time late because the starter literally went into the building to confirm. Then he came out again and started yelling at me that I only paid once. Even though the clubhouse manager called out on the radio to state that I paid for both of us. And the staff blamed golf now app for the mess up. I said well golf now wasn't the one that had a bunch of ignorant staff members. But if it was partially there Paul I don't want to use that site. I will never go back to this course and we'll see if I use golf now ever again

Overall decent layout. Course was in good shape. Employee inside clubhouse was friendly, but the starter was not. What was ironic about my round was I asked if I could walk (752 am tee time) and they would not let me (didn’t ask for a discount or anything) because they “didn’t want me to hold up play” (I play at a good pace walking or otherwise). However, from 5 on we waited on the group ahead of us on EVERY hole. There were no other groups ahead of them, and these guys backed up everything behind us. We had guys in our butts because of it. Not one ranger. It’s a typical poor pace of play round in this area, but during the COVID reopenings all courses (except this one) have been good about pace of play because they don’t want backups. This course needs to adopt the new way courses are spacing out tee times and enforce slow play. It was pathetic. Would have been decent otherwise.

I had a great time playing today and I got hooked up with two great guys who made me feel good since I’m new to the game.

This was my 4th round playing under the new coronavirus social distancing rules. Every round I've played so far (at other courses), I never went into the pro shop- all transactions and check ins were done outside. Also, every course so far is 1 person to a cart. So first of all, I'm surprised that the starter is not checking me in in front of the pro shop. Another player says I have to go in. I go in and the worker behind the counter says I can't come in because I don't have a mask- it's a state law he says. After we sort this out, the kid working the bag drop loads my bag onto a cart with another single that I was playing with. I said "no way! I'm riding by myself" Very contradictory policies amid these "new normal" times.

Also, in my previous rounds, tee times are seperated by 15 minutes. Not here- every 8-10 minutes. Pace of play was horrible. I left after playing 13 holes in just under 4 hours. Course was in good shape and its a fair layout.

So glad to see such a good layout return to the conditions that used to be its norm several years ago! Rancocas is a great layout where you will more than likely use every club in your bag. The course had fallen into disrepair over the last few years, but I am pleased to say it is now in great shape! Clearly a lot of time, effort & money has been invested to bring Rancocas back to life! I can’t wait to get back out for another round here!

Everything was good but the greens need a little love but overall after was great not rushed or bothered

I read reviews about this course before playing. A lot of it had to do with course condition, especially tee boxes. It looks like management definitely re-soded the tee boxes which was a bonus. The rest of the course was in pretty good shape. The bad part was that there seemed to be no control for tee times and pace of play. It seemed like there were people all over the course, and I was suspicious that local resident may have been walking on to a few holes nearest to their homes. Also had local residents using the cart path for personal walks. I’m not totally discouraged to play there again, but hopefully there is a bit more organization.

Let’s start by saying this is a good course. New ownership but still a good course. So we’ve had some rain and high winds for the past week. Naturally, trees fall and sometimes you loose power.

I called the day before for course conditions based on this. I got no indication of any problems at the course. Now to be fair, I spoke with someone who was working remotely for the golf course. No indication of any issues.

Well, no power for 4 days means, no charged carts or CC card swipe due to no phone connection.

So one of our group couldn’t play because he needed a cart and I almost couldn’t play because I pay with CC, no cash. Oh, and no spare push carts

I got through 12 holes carrying my bag. The other two had their carts in their cars, so it was no issue for them.

Key words here, notifications need to be made prior to showing up. Some basic stuff like push carts and maybe cart services for the duffers sweating. Those carts are gas powered. Also, consider a generator for the basic stuff like power for the pro shop...

Too many times I have shown up at this place to find out all 18 holes are Cart Path Only. Made fro a long day.

with the repairs done to the tea boxes the course is really shaping up. can't wait to play there again.

The Gentleman at the register was very ignorant to my father and my self screaming at us I will never return to this facility again

Well they fixed the tees over winter. Now it’s not just a great layout nicely spread out course but the tees are great.... finally they pulled it together

I enjoyed the course, felt rushed when I arrived after being told cart had to be back by 7:30. 4:40 tee time so we had to rush thru the final 4-5 holes
