bring a couple of extra balls

haven't played here in a few years and forgot what a good lay out it is except for the 10th hole. bring a few extra balls in case your swing is erratic the day you play.

Great layout!

Course layout was excellent and challenging. Greens and tee boxes need some work but overall not bad.

Staff was friendly and pace of play was 4:15, pretty good for a holiday. Would definitely play again.

This course is not for women with a handicap over 20

The forward tees are just over 5,900 yards. most of the par 5's are over 500 yards and uphill.

Some of the par 4's are almost 400 yards so this is not a course for most women.

Some of the fairways were in bad shape and so were a few of the greens.

Nice layout and pretty course.

Love the course, maintenance could be better

Played here twice in the past few weeks- really is a nice, challenging and fair course. If you can get on for $60 or less, I think it's a pretty good deal.

Some of the tee boxes were in roughy shape- weedy, uneven, divoted, etc. And some greens were a little beat up- lots of unrepaired ball marks... Seriously people, how hard is that to do?!

But I really do like the course, and both times it was basically empty, done in under four hours both times. Maybe it's a bad sign that nobody's playing it, but I'll take it.

Decent layout, Lousy condition

I play a lot of golf at a lot of great courses around the country. I've seen New York Country Club come up on searches and finally decided to play it. It's typically over $100 to play so I expected a great round of golf. I booked last minute and paid $80. I was surprised by the condition of the course. Crab grass on the tee boxes and fairways as well as greens that were in fairly poor condition for the price. I understand it's been hot and we haven't had a lot of rain but it was in worse condition than just about all of the county courses in Morris and Bergen County, NJ. The layout is decent but I wouldn't return for that kind of money. I'll spend it happily at Mansion Ridge or other courses in the area that are in far better shape. I wish they had their act together because it's a nice piece of property.

Course had a good layout, but is only in decent shape. Greens where the roughest part - fairways were better. A little expensive for what you're playing but still worth it.

The course itself was a nice layout, but the greens were very slow. Not what I was expecting from them. Once they get the greens in good shape I'll be back.

Solid course near Manhattan

Pros: Course in good shape, variety of hole design, greens very undulating providing a good challenge. Close proximity to Manhattan.

Cons: Four holes have severe elevation and are a bit of a joke. Some greens and quality of some bunkers could be in better shape. No walking option. A bit expensive, function of proximity to Manhattan

Pretty good

Went out on Thursday and was basically the only one on the course , pace of play was as fast or slow as I wanted . Course itself was in fine condition , fairways neatly trimmed and the rough was not to bad , very playable . Greens rolled nice , with a few tricky reads along the way . Sand traps were soft and well groomed . Holes 9 and 17 , severe uphill elevations , didn't care for those . Shot a decent 84 .

I like the course but...

The greens were beat up. They were very bumpy and patchy. Where u play a golf course the most important thing is that the greens are well-kept . I played the course when I was in better condition than this time I was very disappointed. This is one of my favorite courses. Its not a good feeling when you hit a putt and its jumping and bouncing all over the place

Thanks for your feedback! We just want you to know we're aware of the conditions and we're working to remedy the issue in the near future. As you may have guessed, this isn't common for our course. It's been a long season, and we've had a lot of traffic. This is no excuse, but we think if you were to come back earlier in the season next year that you might have a much better time. Regardless, we are working on the issue! Thanks for playing with us.

Promising, but didn't deliver

I wanted to love this course...really i did. The clubhouse looked great, and the staff was friendly in greeting us. My first disappointment came at the range actually. For a "country club", i expected more from the range. We weren't able to use drivers, but what was worse was the quality of the balls. about 10% of the balls in my bucket were cracked! Here is the awesome thing about this course: the layout. It was challenging, but fair. Course forces you to think about ball placements and settling for appropriate lay-ups. Certain holes have crazy elevations, which made it really interesting. The disappointment was the quality of the course, particularly with the greens. I read some bad reviews about the greens, but i thought, " Its a CC, how bad can it be?" I hate to say this but some of greens i ran into were comparable to a typical NYC municipal course. They were small, inconsistent, patchy, and full of mall marks. I would like to return in the future though. Maybe not in the near future, but I think with some TLC, this place could be amazing. Until then...charging $80-$105 for green fees won't entice anyone.

Thanks for your candid feedback, Stechara. We recognize that improvements need to be made, but we want you to know we have people out there quite regularly trying to keep the course in prime condition. The reality is that we get a lot of traffic, and unfortunately not all of that traffic works with the course to keep it in good shape. We try and keep up with the high wear and usage, but we've got limited resources to make that happen while still making sure that everyone gets a chance to play the course. Regardless, we hear your feedback and apologize that the course didn't quite meet your expectations. We hope we'll get another chance with you in the future, perhaps earlier on in the season. We think you'd have a much better experience with us. Take care!

Fun course! Just challenging enough.

Always love this course as it's very scenic and challenging! Greens have a little fungus - the first green is bad - but other than that it's in great shape! In the summer this course dries out easily so I would recommend playing soon after it rains and not during a long summer drought as fairways and greens feel like concrete.
