Twisted Dune Golf Club

Really interesting and challenging layout. Good for anyone wanting interesting shots at a reasonable price. Go play and have fun!

Everything was fantastic. The only thing I thought was a drawback is the rental cost. I paid more than the greens fee for a crappy cobra beginner set. I’m a scratch player and will play while on business trips and rent clubs. Typically courses will have premium sets as well as beginner sets. Usually priced much less than the greens fee. All that being said, would highly recommend this course Conditions are impeccable with a lot of interesting holes that require well placed shots. The 2 back tees will give you all you want for the better players.

Excellent shape, value and challenging course.

Know why it’s rated one of the best public courses in New Jersey.

Extremely difficult course with a very slow pace of play.

I’ve read such wonderful reviews of Twisted but can’t say that I agree. My experience was the course is tired due to the late summer season and recent heavy rain. Tee boxes were in bad shape, fairways divots not repaired and fringe on poor shape.

Most concerning was the pace of play, the foursome in front of us averaged 25 minutes for holes, 10-13 with zero intervention from course marshals. Interesting enough they were quite visible on first few holes.

That 136 slope really shows up when you get zero run on the ball..can’t blame the course for that, just a tough slog..

A white/gold combo would help a lot - jumps from 6400 down to 5600..

Greens not the greatest, but fast..

Staff were great..super friendly.

Pace of play was excellent for a Sunday morning..

Certainly unique for NJ / worth a trip, but get ready!

Fairways are generous and greens are sneaky fast from above the hole. Course plays longer because of soft fairways. Still need to work on bunker sand consistency. They have added sand in some but others are hard pack n rocky.

Pace of play was a little slow, some cart golfers are time clueless!

All in all a good track.

Good track…very busy…5 hour round…they had a Marshal circling around …but corse was loaded with casual golfers and the round ended up being 5 hours.

Great layout and was a little difficult. Course was in very good shape. Price was high at almost $90 on a Wednesday morning and it was cart path only. There should be some sort of discount when you can’t fully play the course, if you can’t use the cart. Just thought…..

Truly enjoyed playing this course! Only negative was it was cart path only.

29 years headed to the Shore from Illinois. Twisted Dune has been our favorite for past 15 years. This year, the course is in the BEST shape I’ve ever seen it. Greens fast, lush and true. Bunkers are plentiful and legit.

Course has so much character and options. Multiple tees for varying abilities. I played 10 courses in 17 days on the Shore. TD and McCullough’s were at the top of the list. Senior rate and female rate of $69, for my daughter on Wednesdays, made this a steal of a rate for Shore courses. We also had first tee time of the day and finished in 3 hours and 30 minutes.

Although there are intimidating dunes everywhere, fairways are forgiving to bomb away if you can hit it somewhat straight.

Twisted gets my Gold Star for 2026!

After hearing from a friend that stated the course was in great shape I booked a PM round for $89. Blown away by the current controls here in mid July with the hot weather. Greens are rolled daily and firm. Rolling no slower than a 11. Tee boxes little burned out in some spots but I’m nitpicking. Worth every penny right now.

We play here once a year on vacation and it always delivers a great consistent round of golf. Fairways are nice and greens roll true. Sand traps and waste bunkers can be a challenge. We will be back.

Overall a good experience. Nicely maintained course, with massive greens that ran fast but true. Nice layout, with exception of bottleneck at 13-15 that seems almost inevitable. Finished in 4:45, kinda slow. Biggest complaint was the bunkers, many of which were more comparable to dirt roads than actual sand traps. One club person said they’re starting to address this, but I saw only a few that had much actual sand. Would rate this course more highly except for that factor
