Poor greens

Poor greens, horrible pace of play (starters fault), ranger was annoying, but the bar was great. Only thing that saved it from being a disappointing day.

Rainy day

Stormed for four hours straight. Couldn’t putt the last 4 holes due to pooling water on the greens, but what can you do. My friends and I generally like the course (have played multiple times in nice weather) and it’s fairly well maintained. Cart paths are probably the biggest negative, but we walk so that doesn’t really affect us.

Love the layout. Course is in decent shape, a few tee boxes chewed up. But some challenging holes/decisions to make. Overall good value and good pace of play.

Improving

This course hss improved since my last visit. F0airways are very clean. Rough is deep greens on the slow side. Car path is like going on a roller ciaster at Great Adventure. The ranger Mark was great he helped me fjnd my phone after it fell out of the golf cart. Overall slight improvements coud use a little tlc⁰

Good Value, Nice layout

Gambler Ridge is a very nice public golf course in Central NJ. It is not overly long or difficult. The course does give you a nice variety of hole designs and the course conditions are good. Greens where smooth but a tad slow from the rain the prior night. Rough was thick an deep but fairways had uniform length grass and were in good condition. Even sand traps had wet sand but no standing water. Cart paths were a muddy mess from the storms mentioned. Overall, a nice experience , and a great place to bring a new golfer or a junior to break them into the game without them getting beat up on a too difficult course.

Never Again

It’s been about 5 years since ai played Gambler Ridge. I remembered it as a fun course to play with less-accomplished players. It’s not too long or tight. A 20 handicap can have a good day without being penalized by the course. Thus I thought it was a good choice to take my son-in-law, who is still developing a consistent swing.

We had a beautiful afternoon and joined a friendly mother-son twosome on the 1st tee. That was the last enjoyable moments in what turned into a miserable 5-hour round. The course was poorly manicured, and the greens nearly as slow as the pace of play. At one point, there were four groups waiting to play a hole. Yet the course ranger was absolutely useless. Slow play should be expected on a weekend on a public course. However, a total lack of respect for golf etiquette, coupled with the course management’s refusal to police the pace of play made for a frustrating afternoon.

I’ll never go back!!!

Wonderful experience

Another enjoyable outing . from check in to the starter . Staff are always pleasant and accommodating. Always look forward to playing here . Fairways and greens were in very good condition. However the 1 st cut off the fairways were a bit high . I lost 4 balls in the 1 st cut . Tough to find a ball when playing alone . Will definitely be back
