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.

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.
Weekday Round
The course layout looks receptive....but U must execute the shot. Greens played slower then previous rounds - time of year. Staff - Welcomed us to club very cordial/professional. Got taken back over tee-time confusion but got round in before dark.....45min. booking delay.......
Nice fast greens tough course for high handicapers
Had a very good time playing here. Unfortunately for me I don't play many as difficult as this one. The long Par 3's were especially hard because the courses I play usually have shorter Par 3's. Course was in great shape for this time of year.
Always Fun
For public courses In the area, Colts Neck is probably the best conditioned and has quickest greens (private club speed). The course has a mix of different types of holes including par 3's that range from 80 to 210 yards. For the most part, you'll use every club in your bag. Always an enjoyable round. Prices are a little steep during peak season but nice deals can be had in the off season. GPS on the carts are always a plus.
Let it Heal...Then Play
Greens and fairways were healing from recent aeration so give it another week or so. Once all healed up, should be an excellent fall track. Not the longest course you will play, even from the tips, but accuracy is required. Couple of really nice long par 3s. Par 5s are most certainly getable. Definitely recommend.
Great day, enjoyable course
Pretty wide open, nothing overly challenging. I'll defiantly be back. Greens still have about 2-3weeks left to heal from aeration but overall the course condition is very nice, nicer than most after this extremely dry summer ! I didn't find any ground that was dried out as if hitting off concrete, like many public courses out there right now. In fact there were a few holes that were even a bit soggy/soft but still playable. Overall I enjoyed it very much and will be back before the season closes out.
NO NEED TO RUN BACK
This place is just OK, I play every week with a group. The layout is not very challenging, the tee boxes are weak, greens just OK. It's the kind of course you say I played it and move on. No rush to return and at $90 a round you can play anywhere.
Gotta play it
Even with the hot dry weather that is burning up courses everywhere Colts Neck is in top shape. The layout is challenging but fair. The staff is fantastic and it's a joy to play a round on their course.
Great Deal ! Course is beautiful !
Unbelievable Hot Deal for only $35 !...Course is always excellently maintained...it's nestled among million dollar homes and farmland. Most of the courses in the area are deserts...not Colts Neck...the grass was actually green lol...fairways and greens were in excellent condition ...greens are always fast and ball rolls true...pace of play is very good (they time you)...the course is what I call "golfer friendly"...I would definitely recommend this course but not at their summer prices...way too high...they have great bargains in the fall, so check their rates online...
yep..!!!!!
Course is in excellent shape...Great day of golf....With the golfnow discount made it much better....
Worthwhile
The course is a little quirky. but a nice design to it overall. The greens were true and we're in good shape the fairways were well-maintained and it excellent condition. Tthere was an attentive ranger on course who was very polite and kept things rolling along. Overall a very good experience.
Colts Neck Great Course
Excellent course, the Starter Marty was excellent,
nice facilities, enjoyed the driving range,
and really enjoyed the course.
Very nice course
Conditions were very good, greens were fast but fair. As a first time player there were a couple of blind shots but mostly everything was right in front of you. The course could use better signage directing you from hole to hole. And a few of the holes felt like the were right on top of each other, greens close to next tee box,, having to drive the cart back into the approach shot. All said and done I would play this course again.
Great Day!
The course is in good condition and has its challenges.
Fun time, I recommend.
Nice Facility!
Great course and only minutes from my home...the course was in great shape with a few challenging holes! What made it even better was the great deal I got from " golfnow" T-times.....
Good for short hitters
Course us close to home also it has lots of short holes which help in scoring will play it again
Great condition, cheap deal the day of
Course was in great condition, we played in the afternoon and they let us go out as a 2some and finished in 3:30. Greens were soft but true. Overall great experience, would definitely play again.
Challenging and in great shape
This course is in great shape from tee to green . Though not a long course it is challenging and picturesque . The staff is friendly but not over bearing. The pace of play has be fine the last two times I've been there. Can't wait to play there again.
