Great Course - Bad Weather has Beat up the Rough

It is a great course with a fun layout. This summer's extreme weather has beat up a lot of the rough. Fairways are in good shape. A lot of people don't fix their ball marks on the greens which makes putting difficult.

Greens were amazing

The course is definitely on the mend and looking amazing! Has to be one of the most well maintained public courses the greens were absolutely 10/10 they were FAST and good greens make everything better! They cut out alot of nonsense grass to speed up pace of play and the grass around the greens is very lush and healthy easy to play from! Almost private course vibes today minus pace of play was a bit slow. If less hackers would golf us actually golfers could knock out 18 holes in 4hrs max! But very fun place to play. Def need to swap from. Back 9 back to what it was. Hitting range balls before playing was nice and easy.

Rancocas is really shaping up!

The new owners are really putting in the time and resources to make Rancocas a must play course. Right now it’s a work in process (the traps could use new sand, and the cart paths are still being re-paved). The work done around the par 3 2nd, and the new set up on 18 (previously number 9) is awesome. Looks like the current upgrades will be complete by next season (if not sooner), and I’m looking forward to seeing the final product.

Using Golf Now to reserved my tee time was smooth and efficient and saved a coupla bucks to boot.

Too expensive for course quality

If you get a deal, or play during the week this place is fine.

On Sunday it was 86 dollars and the turf just isn’t there. Really bad drainage and irrigation. Huge dirt patches on the fairway. Poorly maintained greens and cement-like traps. If this place was 50 bucks a round, I would say it’s perfect, but the course is just too torn up to charge as much as they do.

The pace of play was 5 hours for a 8:50 tee time. Our group waited on every hole. We didn’t see a ranger until the twelfth hole.

one hole was closed and no make up offer extended

course is mid renovation and is poor in most spots

for 86$ you are better off paying extra for a 5 star course - this isnt a 86 dollar course

Course currently has construction issues

Hole 2 was closed and multiple cart paths are under construction. The halfway house at hole 10 was closed and by the time you get there it is too late to drive back to clubhouse. No water on the course and then no facility at the turn to buy it. Not good in this heat.

It plays like two different courses with front 9 tree lined doglegs and back 9 more wide open. 18th hole was a great finishing hole. Driving range sits between holes 10 and 18 so slicers could easily end up OB.

Not up to standard and overpriced

Started off on the wrong foot when we learned at registration that hole 2 was closed for repairs, and our thrilling alternative was to play one of the other par 3s twice. Naturally, no discount was offered—still a wallet-lightening $86 per person.

While waiting to start, we were entertained by the dynamic duo of the foursome in front of us, who arrived late with only one set of clubs. The starter sent them to rent another set, leading to a delightful 15-minute delay.

I generally like the layout of Rancocas, but current conditions are, shall we say, abysmal. Besides the chaos on hole 3, numerous other areas are under repair. Clearly, divot and pitch mark repair is an alien concept here.

And the pace of play? Better left unmentioned...

Pace of play is a joke

The pace of play was a joke. They allowed a group of 5 play in front of us and 3 groups ahead was a group of 8. There is no way this should be allowed. The round took 5 and a half hours. They didn't have any water on a hot day and the halfway house was closed on a Saturday in the summer. Save yourself and play another course.

Paving going on

It would have been nice if they let us know cart path paving was going on for holes 1 thru 4. It was annoying—but I’m sure it was all just timing. The addition of the snack shack is awesome!! The course itself is in great shape other than the construction.

Under repair

Course is undergoing extensive renovations. Whole number two it’s not able to be played at all. The rest of the course at burn out areas throughout Fairway and rough and in some areas, no grass at all.

Sunday afternoon watering?

I’m not sure who sets the sprinkler schedule but to have them running on a Sunday morning is a little ridiculous. Especially when some were broken causing flooding on the fairway. Maybe water during the week. Other than that decent course, tough greens, no water on course so complimentary bottle at check in.
