About
Colts Neck Golf Club is one of central New Jersey's most popular courses. The diverse course offers everything from Scottish-style bunkers to sparkling lakes. Tall golden fescue rough borders the fairways and the greens are large and undulating. The course is seemingly short at only 6,236 yards but it shouldn't be taken lightly. It's much more challenging than it appears. The layout finishes with two of its toughest holes. The 17th has a tough green fiercely guarded by out-of-bounds and the course saved the most difficult hole for last. This par 3 will test even the most seasoned golfers. In addition to the golf course, Colts Neck also has a 25-station driving range that stays open late. It's a great spot for getting in some practice after work.

Golfer Reviews
I've played this course before and liked it for the good conditions and playability. This round found the course in less-than-ideal condition as they had recently aerated all areas. Greens were bumpy and sandy. Fairways were dirty (clean & place) and t-boxes sketchy. Typical for a just aerated course but we were not given any indication until teeing off. Usually I would see an "Aeration Notification" on GN or the course website but did not see any. Would have preferred to play elsewhere but had already driven 1 hour to get there. Weather was excellent. Pace of Play was also good as there were not many golfers on the course due to the conditions. Two weeks from now the course should be back to normal.
Colts neck golf course
First time playing this course in 2 years. Staff extremely friendly and facilities clean. C
Green were recently aerated and I wasn't aware of this when I booked with Golf Now , however I was informed upon checking in and still played. The course had a nice layout and was a bit challenging for a fairly new golfer. Pace of play was average and I had a good round. Would definitely play there again and would recommend this golf course.
Good Option
A good option. Staff were particularly nice and accommodating. Pace of play could have been better. Did not see any rangers trying to move things along which would have been helpful

You start off on one side of the road for 2 holes then go to the other side. Not well marked for getting to the next hole. Walking is a hike between some holes while other holes have tee boxes either close to a green or near a fairway making it a head on a swivel situation. Green were well maintained. Fairways are a little beat up this late in the season. 5 fives and 5 par threes. I usually would say closing on a par 3 is not ideal but that par threes was a very pretty hole. I did not like teeing off under power lines at times. Overall waiting until after 12 when the rate drops is the only way I’d consider going back. Morning rate is way over priced. Staff was courtese and pleasant but I asked the starter about the layout and he didn’t know so there’s that. The range was serviceable.
Non member treatment
If they’re going to command top dollar - service has to improve. No help with carts, grill told us 25 minutes for hot dogs, & no post round staff to unload or clean clubs.
No Halfway House, No Cart Girl, 100$s Greens bumpy
I have played here 5 times. Normally bc I have no other choice. For this premium price, it’s a joke to not have any access to food or drinks on the course. Also the greens need to be in better shape. If this was a 60$ round, no complaints.
Great Course
Great course but a bit pricey. If they come down a bit in price, It's one of the best around
Colts Neck great course
From the greens to the fairways to the carts everything was spot on great
