SkyView Golf Club

Very hilly but well maintained. definitely need a cart. Bring extra balls

This was my first time playing Skyview. I normally shoot high 80's on the local courses, but skyview sucker punched me, stole my lunch money, and left me in the dust. Hole 2 is a massive par 5 that's entirely up hill. There are blind drops over hills, 100 foot blind drops to greens after random doglegs, a barn to hit around, two tiered fairways, and greens where you 3 putt and call it a win. The conditions were beautiful, staff was friendly, and there was no bog down until hole 15. If you're a solid to good golfer, give it a shot, but unless your low 80's or better, hit it dead nuts bolts straight, and have 2 dozen balls to lose, there are plenty of courses more enjoyable solely because they're less maddening

Decent price for the Area golf course for a great course.

Good mix of par 5s and par 3s to keep you in the hunt. Some very difficult holes on front espec. Go with someone who has played there if it's your 1st time there. If not you must have yardage gauge as there are wide disparity vs sign post at ea hole. Scenery is amazing. Not crowded after 2:30. Staff very nice. Best value for the $ I have played in a long time. Good condition. Heard it can get dry. Went after a lot of rain and it was drained perfectly. Greens tough. Great track

Good challenging course. Good value for the money. worth a play.

Great course, very challenging, bring extra balls.
Very hilly, lots of sand traps.

Course is in great shape, beautiful mountain setting. Greens were quick but not too fast. My only comment is the slope on some greens makes a difficult hole even more difficult. I would have expected less slope on the holes with narrow, undulating, fairways.

The course was in nice condition for the most part. It could have been mowed a little bit around the greens though as it was fairly thick grass if you were just off the greens. The greens were pretty fast and true for the most part.

My biggest complaint would be that there are no yardage markers on the par 3's and the yardage listed on the monuments on the holes and the yardage listed on the scorecard vary widely so you aren't sure how long the hole is from any tee box on any hole, not just the par 3's. But it's definitely a problem on the par 3's.

Also, there was no drinking water on the course from what I could tell and no one mentioned this before I teed off.

The course was fun to play for the most part. The front 9 is much more difficult than the back 9. Lots of blind tee shots throughout.

This was my first time playing at SkyView. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. I played as a single and finished the round in 3 hours which was nice. The views of the mountains were stunning on a few holes (most notably the approach shot into the green at the 4th). Overall, the course was a little challenging, but you can definitely shoot a good score with ideal conditions. I will definitely come back to play more rounds here.

Sky View has one of the best view in Sussex County and the course could be a great course to play, if changes are made. The fee are at full summer prices at $60 with cart. Starting with the head pro. While putting on the practice green I asked the head pro why the green was in such bad shape and he said the greens were just air ratted. I asked if they were rolled and he said no, not needed. He said if I did not like the greens I could have my money back. The course was in very poor shape, greens lacked cutting, bumpy, lots of bare spots and the fringe not cut much at all. None of the sand traps had been racked for some time, you could see foot prints, water marks and dog tracks. No water on the course and when I asked for Ice at the halfway house I was told I had to purchase a drink no free ice. Some ball washers were on the course but no water in them. No place to put trash and lots of empty bottles and litter around. The fairways looked mowed but the off the fairways the ruff was high enough to bail for hay. We do not believe at this time Sky View is worth paying $60 to play.

Tight fairways lots of risk reward use your driver on par fives
Other wise placement is key lots of elevation changes
Greens were not in the best shape hope the summer months will help me the greens.

Skyview has always been a beautiful, challenging course. In general, it is well maintained, and good scores depend on making accurate shots. The biggest disappointed on Sunday was finding out that the greens had been punched and sanded the previous week, but not disclosed.

I would definitely play again, because I know how good this course can be.

This course was far better than I expected. Very interesting layout with a lot of challenges. Course was in great shape considering how early in the season. Very similar to Berkshire Valley in many ways.

I was very happy with my experience at skyview. as the name suggests, the views from the course are breathtaking, and if you're lucky enough to get a clear day as I did, you will not be disappointed.
As it is still early in the season, most tee boxes were condensed so it played shorter that it would peak season. However, with the steep inclines and rolling hills it proved to still be quite difficult regardless of the length.

The views on this course were fantastic. The course is very well maintained as far as the greens and fairways are concerned. One problem was the leaves. I lost 6, yes 6, balls on the fairway on the front 9. This made the round very difficult. The other problem was the blind shots. The layout is unusual in that there are several blind shots that are followed by turns in the course. It would be helpful if they added some flags or upright markers to give some indication of the general direction of the green on the blind shots. Needless to say, course knowledge can change your score by 5 strokes. Hopefully the leaves were a one time occurrence. I would play the course again knowing the location of the holes better.

Course in great shape, greens quite fast. Played in just over four hours. Reasonable senior rate.

Sky View is a technically challenging course. Lots of hills, and blind pin placements, but for some reason, I've some of my lowest scores here. The course is always perfectly maintained, and the amazing, panoramic views from 9 and 18, are worth the greens fees.

some really great views of the mountains in north jersey and PA. fun layout to play...have to play it more than once to "get" how to play it. only downer is the 4th hole....that is one I don't get.

The 4th hole (a par 5) is a real challenge for any golfer. It keeps me going back to this course.

Nice course, great views, a lot of blind shots. Front nine is a lot more difficult then back nine. Lost more balls in one round there than I have all summer. Staff is very friendly, course was in good shape. Most holes if you hit a long straight drive you get to your ball and you have a uphill or downhill lie every time.
