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.

Golf

Course is excellent. First time to play here and the layout is perfect for my game.. The greens are a bit difficult to read because of different undulations. Played with a local player. Park who is very helpful in helping me how to play each hole. Had a good deal from golf now and will surely play here again.

Solid course

Nice course and staff, condition of the course was on point when we played. Very reasonable cost as well. The back 9 in my opinion was the best. The Only downside was you could not get a mixed drink or beer from cart girl or bar do to a members only rule for Booz, so BYOB if your a drinker other an that good place to play.

Plenty of birdies in horse country

I have always loved this short but challenging layout. You can go low or get in trouble in a hurry around here. Shot shaping and proper tee club selections are a premium on this track. If you haven't played Colts Neck Golf Club I suggest you get out there this year. The afternoon hot deals are an amazing value for this semi private club!

Nice Day

Always look forward to playing Colts Neck CC , I love this course and pace of play ! I would make a suggestion that they should advise you before booking tee times if greens were aerated, course was in good condition but the greens were very bumping and cannot keep a line due to recent aeration. I know its APRIL and there are normal maintenance activities taking place, but I would like to have that knowledge prior and decided if I want to play there or look else where.

Great day of golf, poor food and beverage

The round was great and I had expected the course to be under winter conditions. What I didn't expect was the fact that there was no food or beverages available. The booking paperwork specified "do not bring any food or beverage- only on-course purchases were allowed, and only at their facilities. The kitchen was closed and my daughter and I went through 18 holes with one bottle of water. Either leave mid round to go eat and lose out, or eat much later. So may I suggest that GolfNow work out a way to warn golfers that they need to bring food, at least until Colts Neck advises the kitchen is open. That would have been good info to have.

Good News

All the Tees and Greens were open. The course was in great shape, especially for this time of year. Some of the tees were a little uneven and scruffy, but no big deal. Favorite hole is the 5th, dogleg right. Long forced carry to a fairway with a bunker in the middle. Bite off as much as you can chew to the right or play safer to the left. Then it's a short iron in.

very dissapointing

The course had temporary tees, temporary greens and the GPS in the carts were not working. As such you had no idea how far the flags were. It was like playing a challenging miniature golf course.Before you spend your $ confirm that the above conditions dont exist or you will be wasting your time. Very upsetting that all these conditions are not disclosed on Golf Now

Tough short course with excellent conditions

Semi private course so conditions is better than your typical public facility. Despite its lack in length, the course is rather difficult if you lose balls off the tee.

Looks Good, Plays Good

Even though the morning did not have the advertised weather, the course was in excellent shape. This is a short Championship course that test your shot making abilities. There are many blind shots that will get you in trouble but, the traps were perfect with great bounce from the fresh white medium course sand.
My playing partners were encouraged by how I was able to execute bunker disbursements (HA,HA) I told you there were a FEW blind shots around there. Put this on your list, if in the area.

Fun Course for everyone

One of favorite local courses I play. This course is always in great shape although I did find green is bit slower than usual. But, no complain since it's already in December. Fairway and rough are also in good condition...always love to come back for more. Be sure to head out there before they close regular green for the winter and only open temporary green for play.

Colts neck outstanding

First time on course and I was completely floored! Course was in outstanding condition which says a lot given the time of year (mid November). Tee boxes, greens, fairways, bunkers, etc., all were great. Except for one hole (16th), which was understandable, every green was free of leaves - unbelievable! Will play there again. Course design was interesting, very playable and enjoyable.

a gem

Everything about my foursomes experience at Colts Neck was A+ The conditions for mid-November were as good as when I played in the summer. A varied, Challenging and visually pleasing tract with superb greens, sand as you would see at the very top courses anywhere and a super friendly staff. The high end electric carts with course GPS very great bonus. For the hot deal price worthy of coming back time and again. For Nov. 14th not many leaves, the facility takes great pride and care of this gem!!

The course was in great shape.

Treated very well by the staff. Course in great shape with fast greens and long par 3's and just enough water to make it extremely interesting. Can't wait to come back.
