Pinelands Golf Club

Booked a “hot deal” tee time for 11am 12/18.

 Deal Included golf cart (receipt attached). We also emailed the course at 6:30 this morning if the course was going to be open today. No response.

When I arrived at the course at 10:30 with my foursome, heater, golf cart enclosure, etc. I was told my booking was walking only. I informed the gentleman I was a disabled vet, and another member of our group was disabled as well. he said there was nothing he could do for me.. and he would lose his job. Not sure but it seems that gentleman, lacked basic communication skills and wasn’t able to reason beyond two extremes. He also said that “golfnow should have called you”. I don’t know what he’s talking about, I’ve never received a call from Golfnow in 10years. I then asked for a refund or a rain check, because typically Golfnow won’t refund a “hot deal”. He again said there was nothing he could do, I would have to take this up with Golfnow. I’ve played this course 10 times this year. I’m Very disappointed in this service. I know for a fact that golf

Courses are able to add disclaimers into Golfnow booking about aeration, walking only, etc. Who didn’t do their job here? This could’ve been avoided. Why didn’t anyone respond to our email? Again, could’ve been avoided. ApparentlyThe only person who could help me (Brian) doesn’t arrive to work until 11:45.

Update - I did finally get a reply from “brian” taking about why they closed the course and the course conditions... he failed to answer why they didn’t update golfnow with the information, why nobody would answer an email we sent to this very same address, 5 hours prior.

It was a great course for the cost, the staff was friendly, and the layout was cool. The only downside is the sounds of the gun range nearby. Would recommend.

Everything was great as usual it’s a great course and all the hard work done by the course has been greatly appreciated

One of the best days deals in golf. This was my first time playing here. They are renovating the entire course and fixing their previous owners errors. The fairways are nice and wide open the greens are nice, but fast. Overall I had a great time and am definitely planning on going back.

Bazar day of golf on a beautiful day...I don’t usually write reviews. Extremely slow pace of play and no golf etiquette w/ the matched two-some. After 3,5 hours playing 9 holes, the twosome matchup plus the constant sound of gun fire from the local range we had enough and called it a day. Waiting 10 to 15 minutes between holes was very frustrating and the twosome not playing as a foursome was bazar. We had to constantly wait for the two foursomes ahead us, watch the twosome we were supposed to be playing with and then watch out for incoming drives from the foursome behind. Poor golf etiquette. As for the positives, you can see that the new owners are putting money into course. Tee boxes next spring should be great. Greens were in good shape...very fast. Nice course layout. We may go back one day during the week as we would like to play the course under normal conditions.

It's the rare course that is not lined with townhomes and residential encroachments. This hidden gem is surrounded by thick wooded area through the green. The greens, having been aerated and tended carefully this summer, are in good condition. They are occasionally protected by a fish pond or two and the par 3's make an effort to sport 'sand' traps. I was there the day that they (previous owners) dumped the chopped coral shells in the sand traps. This material is not regarded well by any players , myself included- takes a little getting used to- best to steer clear.

Think about walking here. It is a walking game after all. Carts are on their last leg, that's if you can get one. I imagine that there is a collection of 'dead soldiers' waiting repair somewhere out of sight. It's an extra $10 for a solo ride, pandemic not in existence at PGC, apparently.

If you are a golfer that has trouble staying dead straight or at least in the fairway, make sure that you bring a few extra sleeves of balls. The leaves are thick and fluffy- all 300 billion of them. Tree lines are leave lines and that's a gone ball. Pace is slow when golfers can't accept a lost ball. Pace of play depends on the handicap and the determination of searchers.

The greens fees are between $30 and $45 get it while you can. New owner and plenty of improvements are underway. Almost certainly the greens fees will shoot up come the spring. So $50-$75 wouldn't surprise me. The new owner and therefore the staff that he selects are usually always smiling. There was one inexplicably grumpy ranger, but that's not uncommon, now is it? Interesting layout. Good challenging greens. Great value. On the ascendancy. I'd say go play- if not here somewhere -and try walking!

Course undergoing many changes with new owners, looks like it will be one of my favs next year.

As far as playing this time, FALL won. .way too many leaves all over.. When you lose multiple balls in the fairwaya because of leaves its tough.. Not the courses fault, but it definitely wrapped me up for the season.

This golf course is in the most amazing condition. They have done so much work on the course. The seeding process was done like a professional and the grass is so thick and green.They make a great effort to maintain the leaves at this time of year. I travel 23 miles to play there and I love it.

Our tee time was 11:48 didn’t tee off till 12:15, when there was no frost delay on a beautiful fall day there needs to be a better attention given to keeping the tee times accurate

Tee boxes from the whites are in terrible shape. The center fairways and greens are in excellent shape. Any ball hit to the tree line will be lost. The leaves are piled up along the entire course. I will come back during the summer to give this course another try.

Fall golf. So there were a lot of leaves in the course. It is obvious there has been a lot of good work done on this course recently. Tee boxes are closed. Seed has started growing in and looks good. Greens got aerated today. The grounds keeper rolled them afterward resulting in decent speed and true roll outs. Greens and fairways are looking very good for the price paid. Overall I was pleasantly surprised. I’ll definitely return and recommend to others.

Fairways and greens in great shape; in fact the greens were as good or better than any course I have played all year. Temporary tees, and a bit of a leaf problem. Slow pace of play.
