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.

Golfer Reviews
Real solid course
Loved playing at Colts Neck. Very nice mixture of holes and difficulty. Def check it out b
Gem
Yes this course is on the short side, but don't let that fool you, it is not easy. Play the tips and you will be tested. greens and bunkers are in great shape
Short from the white tees but nice greens
Nice course. Overpriced but with GolfNow the price was fair.
Greens in very nice shape & rolled true. Would not recommend at $80 but for $40 it was a good value
Great course!
Nice mix of hole layouts. Some holes offer great risk/reward opportunities. Fescue grass at full height making stray shots impossible to find- keep it your fairway! Tee boxes were a little beat up. Rarely a level stance. Greens were well manicured despite the fact that they were riddled with plug marks. PLEASE fix your ball marks!!! Staff very friendly. Play later in the day when the rates drop. I love the course, but not at $100.
Not a push over!
For those of you that simply look at the length and think that you'll run this one over, look again. From the back tees the course measures just under 6300 yards. However, the rough is "Open" rough, high heather up to your waist, best not to have to hit from it and good luck in finding it if you do hit into it. No. 5 is a relatively short par 4 but with a forced carry ,a true test for shorter hitters. But if you're long you can drive the green. No.6 is a long par 5, good luck in reaching in two or even three if you're not long. No. 13 is a "strange" hole with a large tree protecting the front right of the green. If your right, you must keep it low or risk going over the green on your approach. The 12th hole is a relatively long par 3 from the back (224 yds.) that is you're too far right, you are in waist high grass. The 16th is another forced carry on a relatively short par three (about 165 from the back tees)-don't be right. No 18 is a par 3 with water all along the left, right of the green is the deep stuff again and you'll be pitching up to the green, blindly. All in all the course is in good shape, pace of play is monitored only occasionly. They have a practice range. We did not see a cart girl doing the entire round and it was hot (100 deg F). We did find water to be adequately spaced, though. Price wise you can do better in Monmouth County NJ, but for the money you get what you pay for.
A challenging course and a great value at the discounted rate of $59 for the weekend.
The back tees provide the length desired by intermediate level golfers. Pace of play was excellent. Our foursome had a great time. We'll definitely play this course again.
Great course
Interesting layout, good spacing of holes, not much water, in fantastic condition.
too many idiots
Players have no respect for other players. Talking. Disruptive. Rude
Colts neck golf
the course was in great shape. Was backed up about 25min and the person checking me in didn't know to give me tokens for my range balls and just sent us out to the range. other than that I look foreward to golfing there again.
Great Course and good condition
Overall, I'm satisfied with the course.
Because of the rain, it was cart path only which wasn't fun since I'm unable to hit it near the cart path.
Great Value in Monmouth Co.
Fast Greens and very challenging for a course of its length and at fair price. I played twice in a week and will go back again. Didn't love playing cartpath only on 6/14 but understand with all the rain. Reminds me of Blue Heron Pines in Egg Harbor.
Disgrace to the Game..
This course is very well maintained. Unfortunately if your not a member they treat you like dirt. I was once told during a 100 degree day we could not even bring a water bottle on the course. A few of us were set to play as a threesome and a single. The starter made the single player park his cart and ride with someone he had never met before even though the clubhouse told him they had more than enough carts available. We've also once had a starter make us wait at the first tee with two empty holes in front of us for 10 minutes and for no reason. This course will almost guarantee you a 5 hour round, and I promise you they know very well who has the golf now, good priced tee times and will treat you differently.
A great deal for the GolfNow Hot Deal price.
Well kept course with some interesting holes. Not a great test but fun to play. Certainly not worth $80 or $100 to play here, but on sale, it's worth coming out to play.
They need to post on their website, that you have to be a member to be served a drink!
Although this is a very well maintained course, minus the second cut being like a third cut...very hard to hit out of, it is a beautiful course. The only reason I wouldn't recommend it, is because they will not serve their guest any kind of alcoholic beverage unless your a member. I think they should put this on their website!
Fun Course
Very well maintained moderately challenging course with very friendly staff. GolfNow hot deal and good reviews drew me to the course. Not a $80+ course IMO but at $57 well worth it.
Great course
Love the course, it is very well maintained. The sand traps actually have sand in them instead of dirt. Rest rooms and porta pottys along the course are very clean. Putting green is apart from driving range and no short game facility, but the course itself is great.
Great Course, Beautiful Fast greens
Even though the weather was terrible the course was absolutely beautiful. Sand traps were all pristine, greens were beautifully maintained and very fast. Nice layout. We all had a great time.
Short, but fun track. Very good greens
This is one of the better courses you can play in monmouth county. I'm a 2 handicap so I enjoy the course but the one complaint I have is length. I'm a fairly long hitter and some of the holes can seem a bit gimmicky to a good player. That being said there are some drivable par 4's and reachable par 5's that make the course a fun experience to play. I don't think it's worth the full price ($90) but at a discount more than worth checking it out.
Played 4-24-13.
Course was in good shape. We got off on time if not earlier. The pace of play was great. Saw rangers during the day checking. Overall a good experience and would play there again.
