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.

Pleasantly surprised!

I usually know a course is good, when I am thinking about how I would play some of my shots differently the day after.

Visiting from San Diego where the courses can typically be extremely challenging with narrow fairways, unplayable hazards or play longer from uphill/downhill layouts, this course was a surprising challenge.

The course designer here really had the modern game in mind. Fairways are mostly all safe, but the high risk/reward shots may add a stroke or two if missed (I spent more time at the beach than in San Diego.)

This is a great course for shot shapers and wound up really having to work both draws and fades equally throughout the round.

Well placed and spaced fairway bunkers and doglegs kept me guessing between a 3 wood and driver off the tee to reach greens in two on the par 4s and 5s. Greens bunkers positioned well and some deep on downslopes.

Greens were fairly large but can make for some long challenging putts if you hit them. The greens here were incredibly difficult for me to read on my first go around and some of it was tricky pin placement.

The only caveats about the course were some of the unrepaired divots on the greens (c'mon guys, repair one and one other!)

Sand was inconsistent. Some packed and heavy (likely from sprinklers or rain, others ok.)

As others noted, this is a private club so concessions are members only.

Nice course!

This is a beautiful course. Tees, fairways and greens are really nice. Greens are fast and rolled (love them) but receptive to pitch shots. It does have fescue with ticks in it, so avoiding that is a top priority.

Overall great course

Colts neck is a really nice golf course. It’s got fast greens good layout and pace of play is really good most of the time. Well taken care of and great experience overall.

One thing they can do to improve is fix the tee boxes a little. Some are uneven which makes it harder to get consistency on your drives.

Crazy Layout / Beautiful Course

Everything about this course is great! Staff is very friendly and helpful, course has a crazy layout , where you make your turn, is nowhere near the clubhouse. Conditions are outstanding, best in the area, well maintained. I was able to get a great rate from Golf Now but the only draw back this course is it is a little pricey if you you pay the full rate. Even if that is the case, it's worth it!

Nice round at Colts Neck Golf Club

Course was challenging and in great shape. Played as a single and was matched up with another single and a 2 baller to make a foursome. We were all pretty evenly skilled so it made for a nice round. Would reccomend to a friend and plan on returning. Staff was very friendly and accommodating.

Awesome day

Ran over for a late Sunday afternoon loop. It was a touch slow, but expected. Only complaint is you can’t but a drink unless you are a member.

Course was in great shape and fun.

Very Good Condition for This Time of the Year

The course moved well and the conditions were better than expected for early in the season. Make sure you bring something to snack on and drink as there is no cart girl or open refreshment stand.
