The Good , the bad

Mid April golf with rain and cold weather not conducive to plush grass The course was in decent shape. Fairways had some bare spots but you were able to find some decent grass in area of your ball. Low lying areas were wet but salvageable.

Greens were recently aerated so a bit sandy and hard Tee boxes while not great have started to grow in and are alot better than the last 2 seasons. The carts are preposterous and are beat to crap. All in all , I grabbed a hot deal and paid $45 for a 10 am tee time so 18 holes with cart under $50 these days are rare. If I’m paid the standard $70+ I may not have been so nice in my review. Staff is great if only AGC would put some $$$ into SSGC it would be a great place and keep locals from going to NJ. Oh, and I played with Matty B !

Don’t waste your money

Found out upon arrival let the greens were recently aerated. This should be information that is provided prior to booking. The greens were horrendous. Just about every tee box was grassless. There was no sand in any of the bunkers. They were all hard pan. The golf carts were in disrepair. The pace of play was horrible. Absolutely a waste of money.I’ve played here a few times in the past few years and always found it and enjoyable round of golf. I won’t be back.

Not going back

Learned upon arrival that their greens were recently aerated. It would be nice to be made aware of that at time of booking with Golfnow. A modest discount for that would be good business as well. The starter was informative and helpful. The course itself was in bad shape. Grassless tee boxes on most every hole. Greens were unputtable. Bunkers had no loose sand. They were like hard pan. Pace of play was rediculously slow. Never saw a Ranger. The price was rediculous for the round. I have played this course a few times in the last few years and enjoyed the rounds but I will not be returning after what it’s turned into.

Horrible shape

It’s early in the year so it’s expected that the course wouldn’t be in great shape but this was egregiously bad. And the golf carts looked like they hadn’t been washed since last year. Absolutely awful.

Unfortunate

All the tee boxes are "under repair" , the temporary locations are pretty pathetic. This is winter golf in the north east. Someone should have noted this earlier, you don't find this out until you get to the starter.

TEE BOXES ARE A MESS

Grounds crew (if they have one ?) Should be fired. Understand course gets a lot of play but so do a lot of other courses in NJ and they are fine. Not kidding Grounds crew should be fired
