Nice course and the conditions were good.

Played at 6:00 PM. The course conditions were good. Greens were not super fast but it was not slow as the last time I played it.
I would play it again for sure.

Nice course

The course was in excellent shape, considering the buckets of rain in the past week or so. The staff was friendly, especially for a packed holiday. Overall, very good experience.

A little confusing trying to find the first tee box

The staff was pretty unfriendly and no mention was made that the 1st tee box is across the road. When you come out of the club house the 10th tee is right there so they really need to put a sign directing you to the 1st tee.

Rancocas -06/30/2013

Was looking for an early morning tee time for myself as a single on a Sunday. Booked through Golfnow.com on short notice, and got a 6:44 am time. Staff was very friendly, and the starter gave me a great walk through of the opening hole, as well as what both 9s would be like. It was appreciated. The course was in pretty good shape. Fairways were in good shape. The teeboxes were in OK shape, typical of a course in midseason getting play. The greens were slightly slow, and could have been made a little faster. But, that could be due to the heat, and the grounds crew wanting to make sure the greens do not get damaged. The rough was lush. And I liked the layouts of the holes. Lots of doglegs, both left and right. Overall, I would may play it again. Only negative for me is it is about 40 miles from my house.

Poor Management

The course condition was very poor. Many green side bunkers were filled with water and hard as a rock. The greens were not mowed down which cause many bumps while putting. The worse of it all was the wait. Apparently, they were hosting a tournament which started earlier in the day but started to let the customers in the afternoon. But by the time, we got to 9th hole, there was about 4 groups wait on the tee to tee off. My group waited for about 20-25 minutes to tee off. From then on, it was a constant wait of 10 minutes each hole. I have never seen a course where 4-5 groups were waiting on 1 tee. There was no one from Rancocas monitoring the situation. I actually called in from the 9th tee but only response was I will try to get someone out there but since there is a tournament, there is not much they can do. The ranger came by to say, there is nothing they can do. Only saving grace was a thunderstorm which cleared the whole course and allowed crazy people like me to finish in the rain and thunderstorm in 5 hours.

A Course for People Who Just Want to Golf

I've been going to Rancocas for the last year or so. Every time I go the staff is very friendly and the pace is perfect. The course is kept together nicely and isn't frustratingly difficult. The main attraction is that there isn't an elitist atmosphere there, it is just normal people who want to improve their golf game without the attitude or ridiculously slow pace of other members there. I used to frequent another local course called Golden Pheasant, but the people who play there treat you like you're an outsider who sneaked onto a private club. I highly recommend this course because it provides the best value and friendlier atmosphere than all the other courses in the area.

rough was thick and challenging, greens were a little furry but rolled nice.

Great track. The back nine is more than you ever want after a decent front nine.

The greens were aerated 3 weeks ago and still not in good condition

The staff in the clubhouse was friendly as well as the starter. The greens were in poor shape and very sandy even though it was aerated 3 weeks prior. I played there in August 2012 and the greens were completely sand. I don't think there was a green spot to be seen. And they had the nerve to charge full price. One of our carts died on the 9th hole and the other on the 12th. They obviously were not serviced before the round. A rude group behind us hit into us on at least 3 holes and knew they were doing it. If that is the kind of customer they attract, I would warn others against going there. It will be a while before I go back.

Great price for a decent course

This has always been a nice course to play. It is still a bit early for the course to be better, and hopefully the grounds crew will be able to really get the conditions lush.

Don't bother

Course was in terrible shape. Granted it was the end of March, but there was no grass on fairways, the greens were aerated and sandy, and the course was just blah. Don't bother playing

Not bad for a municipal course.

During the winter months the course is playable but not great and not horrible either. the greens get aerated the beginning of spring so be aware of that.

In the summer months the course is in good condition with a fun yet challenging layout. The staff is freindly and helpfull and you can't beat this course for the price!

Nice course. Great staff. Great value.

This was my first time playing Rancocas. First off, the staff was very nice. The course was virtually empty even though the temp was near 50, I thought there would be more players. The course was in good shape even though it was mid-January. The 3s and some of the 4s are pretty simple but the 5s, especially the 13th are tough. My cart failed on 3 (first time its ever happened to me) but the staff got me another one within minutes, thumbs up to them. For $22.50 including a cart, it was a great value. I will probably return in the spring to play the course at its best conditions. I would recommend this course to all players.
