Colts Neck Golf Club
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.

Interesting Layout
Enjoyed the layout @ Colts Neck very much. Had a few par 3 holes over water & nice combination of varied distance par 4 & 5 holes. The sand traps were in good condition around the greens. Unfortunately, the greens had been recently air aided so it was difficult to putt. I got a great rate on golf now which made it worth the trip.
Great track
It was a beautiful day so course was busy and a little slow but that didn’t take away from the awesome time we had.
Bad Condition
Played this course many times in past years. It was always in great shape. They have let this course go and way over priced. I’d reccomend plenty of others before this course.
Nice track... ***And One big thing to know before going**
They have a nice little track over here... The only thing is that it could definitely be better.. Especially for what you pay on a weekend (/holiday).. Some of the greens looked a little burnt out but they were still pretty fast.. And some of the fairways were very wet even when there was no obvious reason for that to be the case... This caused you to have to really try to pick the ball clean or you'd take a big piece of sod with your iron shots (especially approach shots)..
***One BIG thing to note (and maybe they said it somewhere and I didn't pay attention to it) is that NON-MEMBERS CANNOT BUY ALCOHOL ON THE COURSE!***
Good course but not best value
Course is ok. Tee boxes were chewed up, greens were in pretty good shape but a little patchy. Course was pretty backup for a few parties ahead so took a while. Staff is nice but hard to justify the price for the what you get. Also bar cart will only serve alcohol to members
Review Martha Edelman
I very much enjoyed playing the course. It had a good mix of challenging longer holes from the Ladies' tees and also some short par 3 & 4's. The course was in great shape, including the greens. They were fast but rolled true. Would play this course again in a heartbeat.
Horrible
I played this course years ago and it was decent. Now it’s absolutely awful and the staff is nasty. They obviously don’t care, either.
Course is ok Club house staff rude
Club house charged me $20 more than my confirmed golf now price. Showed him my receipt from golf now and he could care less.
$52 for a cart is outrageous.
Course has a great lay out and maybe earlier in the year was nice. A lot of crab grass. When there weren’t bare spots the grass was great. Tee boxes in good shape on most holes.
Greens were fast but fair.
No social distancing rules no masks anywhere.
Glad I played and would have been worth it at the golf now price. Oh right. That is irrelevant. They seem to charge what they want.
Unpleasantly surprised
Conditions of greens were horrendous. Course layout very weird. Many better values on GN. Local county courses blow this course away.
Great Layout - Some Rough Greens
Absolutely love the layout of the course. Features five par fives. Some of the greens subpar.
Colts Neck - too little for the money
The course is in atrocious shape. Greens are badly dressed with lots of wheat grass is in bare spots . Fairways are heavily infected with weeds. The staff is wonderful and very accommodating however this course and its conditions are not worth the current rates.
Disappointed
Many fairways & greens have dead grasses or are bare. While it’s semi private, there were hundreds of un repaired divots & ball marks. I will not go back to play this course this season! Very disappointed. Too bad because it’s not a bad layout.
