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.

Nice course
Just what you would expect, the course was in awesome shape for this time of year and all the weather we have been having and the grounds crew have done a great job compared to most of the other courses we played this year so far. Kudos to the staff an excellent round again, thank you
A very good option
It was early December and the course was in great shape, tee to fairway to green. The latter were pristine.
It is not a long course overall yet it poses enough challenges to make it fun. There are short and long par fives. A bunch of the par threes are quite long.
Aesthetics wise, it is very nice. It is a very walkable course too. In general the tees are not far from the greens.
It is a recommendable course for sure.
Great Course
What a great course. Everything about it was great. Course was challenging but not difficult. Price was good but this was winter rates. Summer rates way too high. Overall a great time was had and a great day for Dec. golf.
Well worth the drive
I heard that this was a nice course. We was not disappointed.
It's in great condition even now in December.
It's a nice layout but compact design. Not overly long but still a good challenge especially in the wind.
A few long par 3s.
The staff were very friendly and allowed us to get out a little early
I would definitely recommend and play this course again
Challenging Holes
Very good conditions for this time of year. Although the layout is not one of the most friendly for a walker, there are many challenging holes for the above average golfer.
Great Layout & Challenge
Only drawback to playing here is that there is no 19th hole, bar is only open to members. Course is fair, conditions very good, worth the drive from Philly, there are open holes as well as tree lined, will hit just about every club in bag. Will definitely return and bring friends.
The course is well maintained and in fantastic condition,especially for the month of November.
November round was OK
The walkers on the course in front of us made the round too slow. Waiting on every shot, every hole was hard. We had 3 golfers all riders and the 4 walkers not once thought about letting us thru.
Greens were excellent i assume the course in mid-summer would be kept up better ie. fairways and bunkers. Also our navigation stopped working after second hole. Not alot of yardage markers and we needed them since navi didnt work
For 23 dollars it was a great buy, paying 75-100 would not be worth it.
The slow walkers really hurt the flow of our round.
5 out of 10 - from tips we shot 88,93,102 which around our normal scores. Wanted to play this course all summer, unfortunately it did not live up to price being charged, thanksfully we had the hot deal
Bogus T time
Confirmed T time wasn't honored by the course, delayed 1 hour preventing completion of the round due to darkness...very disappointed.Course mgt blamed golf now...Buyer beware, members get priority and guests cannot be served alcohol on the course.
One of my favorites
One of my favorite courses in the area. Sometimes the pace of play can be slow on busy days but if you get to go on a slow day early/late in the season it will always be a great time. I came here for the first time back in the early 00's and still enjoy playing this course as much as I did back then. Bob is great if you need lessons and I plan on going back for some refreshers at the start of next season as well as getting my wife started in the sport. I went back the other day for the first time in 7 years since I took awhile off from playing, still the same great service and quality.
The staff was extremely friendly and helpful, the course and amenities were very nice also.
Nice Course
Love this course. Always well kept. Greens were fast.
Surroundings are great. Staff was great. You do't get back to the clubhouse at the turn for the back nine. So keep some fluids on hand. The cart never came by.
Rather expensive . But got a hot deal ..
Long Drive
Even though I had 2 three hour commutes from Brooklyn, NY, the pace of play was awesome, 3hr round. Course layout is nice, not too difficult, great for a Sunday afternoon drive down the fairway.
FUN COURSE
If you are a decent player looking to put up a good score this is the spot. This course is not long even from the blues but what makes it fun is the layout. This is a placement/shot makers golf course. Every hole is birdiable but nothing is too easy. They do have a stretch of 3-4 holes on the backside that are fairly difficult and the finishing hole is an intimidating par 3. 9 times out of 10 the greens are soft and rolling quick. Practice green and range are average. Best thing about this course is playability, quality or fairways/greens and visual appeal from the tee box.
