Excellent course. They are trying

Pinelands is an excellent course which I believe is under new ownership/management. We played off of temp tees which can happen anywhere and the greens were about as clean and true as you could expect. Fairways are for the most part clean and well maintained as well with some small exceptions being areas which are being repaired. Overall Pinelands is EASILY the best value I’ve ever had golfing, and with a little more time and money it’ll be in the contention for top overall as well. Convenient location as well

Aerated and reseeding of tee boxes

Wow, the double whammy. My friends and I found out later in the week that the maintenance was underway. We made the best of it. We like this course and the tavern. So, no surprise we had a couple and a burger afterwards. Good course, just wish I knew sooner.

Work in progress

It’s ridiculous that people who don’t understand course management comment on things they don’t understand. It is obvious the new owners are spending a ton of money to bring the course back. Grass has to grow it takes time, it’s not over night. Temp tee boxes are necessary to allow for new growth on tee boxes. Greens must be aerated seasonally. It takes a lot of time and money to maintain fairways, especially when golfers refuse to replace divers, fix ball marks and drive their carts where they aren’t supposed to. Best deal in town. Great value. Beautifully redone club house and pro shop. Staff is incredible. I will play it again and will be excited to see what the course looks like in the spring.

Needs Work

The course is in rough shape. The fairways are burnt out and patchy. It looks like they are trying to do decent amount of work on the course, but giving people better notice would have been nice. Every single hole had a temporary tee boxes in areas that were filled with crab grass and tick rough. The course has good layout and looks like if it’s in good condition it would be a nice place for a round. But given the conditions right now they should either close until all work is done or give people a serious discount on the price of the rounds.

Stay Away

I played the pinelands since I was a kid but this is the first time back in about 12 years. New Management took over and say they are making changes to the course. Not so sure if that is accurate. The fairways are rock hard and all dirt with a few patches of what I think they call grass. Tee boxes were tore up and bunkers were rock traps but the greens were ok. I hope they really are trying to get this course into shape, if not just sell it to developers!! I will not be back

Overbooked

Looks like new owners are working hard on the course itself and that is a real positive, but they were more than a half hour late getting groups off first tee. One group that was waiting ahead of us left without playing. Part of this was that they don’t have enough carts and they had to wait until a group finished before a new group could go out. There also was no ranger on the course and at one point we were the third group waiting to tee off on the same hole with two other groups in the fairway.

I seriously never complain about course conditions but the condition of this course was absolutely horrendous! I honestly dont know how they get repeat customers...every fairway was basically dirt...i guess the greens were ok cause there was grass on them...wont be back...i told people to turn around in the parking lot and save their money. What a joke

Nice Course, lots of work being done to improve the Course

I haven't played this course for a long time, but was very pleased with what I saw. The greens were in great shape and there is new grass growing everywhere. New owners took over and the place is looking great!

Pinelands Golf Course - I like the improvements

The course has some challenging holes, including holes no. 6 and 13 in my opinion, and overall is a really good course to play. Improvements to the clubhouse were completed and when we played, they were performing maintenance to the tee boxes. I like seeing the investment in the golf course as it shows the commitment to the golfers who play Pinelands, and they will keep coming back.

terrible course

the only reason i gave it 2 stars was because the staff were very nice. I see they might be trying to upgrade the course but it is the worst course I ever played on. many greens were bald ad burnt. there was no grass on any of the fairways and their roughs. the tee boxes were just a section in the rough with the grass being 3 or 4 inches long REALLY. no restrooms except in the pro shop which wasn't close to course. did I mention the gigantic pot holes or the non- existing tar paths.

Rough Course

Where do I begin? First, the bad. The course is in terrible shape. 17 of 18 holes have temporary tee boxes. This is understandable, they are trying to improve the existing boxes. When you see them, you are going to question why you can't hit off of them. They are ready to go. Almost all the fairways are bare. Mud or hard pan. Very little grass. Rough was in good shape and preferred to hit out of rough than fairway. Sand traps are filled with a terrible trpe of sand that is composed of little pebbles. Greens are ok at best. The carts are not responsive and you think they are dying when driving them.. Now, the good. Apparently it was sold and the new owners are really trying to improve the place. The course has an awesome layout and has great potential. They have a nice snack area at the turn and the clubhouse is very nice. Alot of picnic tables outside....I assume for dining, but never stopped to see if they had food. Employees were very nice. They are military/law enforcement friendly which I love. Finally, they are not overpricing the round. It's a fair price for the conditions. Look forward to playing this course next season.

New and improved!

Always wanted to play at Pinelands, but never made it there until now, and I’m glad I waited. The old course and management or gone, and now a new golf course has taken its place. New pro shop, outdoor seating and dining, and a bar are a great place to hang post round and although the course is under transformation, it’s still challenging. Go play and see for yourself!
