Montclair Golf Club

Last minute tee time landed me at this place. Club house and bathrooms are not in good condition. Bathroom was like a sauna and the showers were out of order. No breakfast food or hot food was available during my 8:40 AM. Course was alright....decent condition. Greens were well kept for the most part.

Great price for weekday play

Not too crowded

Good condition for the money

Great pace of play today, but the course needs a bit of attention. Navigating between holes requires driving in and out of the residential neighborhood, and clearer signage is definitely needed to guide players smoothly from hole to hole. With some added course maintenance and a refresh on the golf cart fleet, this spot would be much better.

Great layout that would be fun with better condition. Tee box needs work especially. Greens and fairway are mostly ok just slow.

Tee boxes just weeds, very little in the way of meaningful fairways, and beat up greens.

Price of the round is a little high for what you’re getting. Range balls are ridiculously priced at $15 for a small bucket. For the price we’re paying, they should be included with the round. The greens are in good shape overall, but the fairways are still struggling. They’re working on their tee boxes so there’s a lot of sand thrown down

$70 to play on the weekend is too much for this course. I would suggest waiting till after 2 o’clock and pay 55. The bonus is for $70. They’re getting very little play as I play twice this weekend and also last weekend and after 12 o’clock, there is very few players out there. If they wanted to draw in a lot of people, they should drop their price to 50 bucks around and they would undercut everyone in the area and be packed. But for me, I would rather them continue to keep charging over $70 so I can go out and play the course in just over three hours.

Played the back 9 on Saturday for nearly $50, putting it up there in price with much nicer courses such as potomac shores, yet the tee boxes were completely solid almost like cement, the fairways were dying, and the greens were muddy and dead. I also got stuck behind a couple of groups and decided to go past them only to see that there were 12 (!!!) groups on holes 12, 13, and 14. I was severely disappointed and decided it'd be better to just go home because my two hour 9 hole round was going to look more like six hours at that pace of play.

Montclair is a tricky layout with lots of interesting holes. Hit it straight or watch the trees swallow your ball. The greens sand traps and fairways are in decent shape but fairly hard. Tee boxes are bare, hard and need work. The staff is nice, the price is right and the course is usually not crowded. Hopefully they will survive on their bare bones budget.

Very interesting course with some really good challenges. Beautiful surroundings!
