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.

Ball marks/debit

My brother and nephew came from Pennsylvania to visit and we decided to book a tee time at Colts neck golf course. I thought I would take them to a nice course because it was their first time playing in this area. The layout of the course is great but the course was in hideous shape. On one of the holes we counted 23 ball marks. After the round, I spoke to the starter and asked him if there was a tournament earlier in the morning. He said he did it now. Not worth the price I paid. Very disappointing

Very disappointed

I have been to Colts Neck country club over a dozen times with little to no issues.

July 4th I took my son to play. There was no one working the course. No one at the first hole. No one to direct anyone when to start or go. It was backed up the entire time. We even skipped holes to try and help other golfers who were waiting as well. There was no cart person for food or drinks either.

The course was in ok shape. Lots of broken Tees and some garbage on the course. Not sure what changed-possible some good people quit. I get staffing issues exist but I expected more for the price we pay.

Good Course, no organization.

Fun course with good conditions. Well taken care of. Huge downfall is that, being it’s a semi private course, they just let members go out and tee off whenever, which can def throw a wrench into your plans of having a smooth round. I was playing alone behind 4 senior members. On multiple occasions I finished my hole, only to wait at the next tee box. I should have known they weren’t going to let me play through since not one was even courteous enough to say hello. What can you do! In my opinion, not worth the price to be treated like a peasant.

Good Track

This course has a nice layout, really well maintained fairway and greens. The only con other than the place of play being uncharacteristicly slow is unless you are a member you cannot purchase beer or alcohol. It's not the courses fault its a ridiculous Colts Neck County rule. Not sure why the course doesn't sell "Daily membership passes" to skate the rule but it is what it is.

Colts Neck Proshop Staff A++

I had to call the pro shop because there were no cups at a cooler on the course, it was hot and we needed water.. they were out there before we left the hole.

I also had to call the proshop for a bag of ice for an injury (tripped over a clup and banged the knee pretty good), they came right out with it.

Aside from the course being in great shape, the proshop was very attentive!! Thank you

Walked

Sabotaged by Starter

Beautiful day and fun course marred by incompetent Starter and selfish Member Group . Starter let Member group scheduled for 3:30 tee-off at 1:04 because they didn't think they should have to abide by the tee sheet. There was a 1:00 and a 1:08 and they kept to the schedule so this backed up the entire course for the rest of the afternoon. Waited at every Tee Box and for every approach shot. An 8 minute interval is rough enough on a busy Sunday, let-alone a 4 minute interval all because somebody didn't feel like waiting. Had 5 groups bunched-up between 6, 7, and 8.

Top notch

Second time playing the course.

Some of the bunkers were hard others muddy.

But it rained in the morning So I guess that’s to be expected.

Since this is one of the higher priced courses we play in the state, complimentary range balls would be nice.

Just a suggestion.

Great shape

The course is in beautiful shape and caught it on a cloudy day so play was light and pace was good. . Still 2 temp tees but it's so nice now hard to complain.
