Solid

Great staff, course is a unique layout that tests your creativity. Even though greens were recently aerated they were were true. Will be back to play the Ranch.

Gorgeous Views and a tough course

Wow!! The views are amazing and the golf holes are a work of art.

There are many extreme lies. Mainly, the very steep and hilly terrain has some big up and downhill holes.

Bring your best game AND do not play the back tees unless you are scratch or better (you're not, so just don't).

There was a group of awful golfers playing in front of us and from the tips... caused an over 5 hour round.

Amazing day on a wonderful course

We played in the Irish Open golf tournament today at The Ranch, and the experience was truly outstanding. The course was in incredible condition—lush, well-maintained, and a pleasure to play on. From the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed by the friendly and attentive staff, which set the tone for a fantastic day. The food was delicious, perfectly complementing the overall experience. The level of professionalism demonstrated throughout the event was impressive and made the tournament all the more enjoyable. Highly recommend The Ranch for anyone looking for a top-notch golfing experience!

All around Excellent Course!

The staff was great from the moment I arrived. I was paired with two members that were extremely helpful and gave me tips as this was my first round at The Ranch. Well worth the 45 minute drive and greens fees. Pace of play and course conditions were top tier for a public course.

The ranch never disappoints

Staff always super friendly. Got a hot deal to play Monday morning. Beautiful day. Course was in great shape. Always a challenging little track but fun layout. Greens rolled true. Plus was able to put up my best round of the year. Will definitely be back to this course.

Unique golf experience

The Ranch is an interesting layout on a very steep property. We played the White (senior) tees and had a very enjoyable round. Multiple holes offer risk/reward opportunities. The day we played, the greens were still recovering from aeration two weeks earlier. The greens were fast but still a bit bumpy. The fairways and tee boxes are in great condition. We received an alert that a bear was in the vicinity but we never encountered it. Overall, we had a great day.

Much improved!

Great experience playing the ranch yesterday!

Most impressive was the pace of play fixes. And the holes with blind T-shots they have a red light green light technology system makes it easy to know when it’s OK to hit. They also had rangers on several holes, letting us know when we are clear.

There’s also a new snack shack right after the sixth hole with hotdogs, sausages, and all the drinks and alcohol you wish, even ice cream. This is a big fix because at the turn usually had to go into the restaurant to get something which would slow everything down.

Course conditions were terrific! The outside ops people when you arrive are nice touch. They’ll bring a car to you or take your bag and set you up. I always tip these people.

Great staff worth the price. Would play again

Upon arrival we were greeted and bags removed from car. Wasn’t expecting that. Free range balls. Staff was amazing throughout the round. After we hit the restaurant and the service and food were amazing in there too.

Slow round and even slower greens

Played on a Friday afternoon. Thunder showers were forecasted for late afternoon and we really wanted to beat the weather. 4.5 hour round and we just beat the weather. Greens were super slow and not up to expectations.

Ordered lunch before we teed off. Took more than 30 minutes to get our sandwiches and the restaurant was not busy when we ordered.

Rude Course Ranger

Course was in great shape and looked forward to an enjoyable round. I'm a double digit handicap golfer who plays ready golf when in a foursome. The group behind us never had to wait to play, We encountered a rude course ranger who told us we weren't playing fast enough because the group in front of us was more than one hole ahead. We told her we were not holding up the group behind us and some of the holes we played were cart path only and our shots happened to be on the opposite side of the cart path off the fairway. She was clueless, uncaring, and could only focus on us not playing fast enough. We finally had to tell her to back-off since we were not slowing down the group behind us.

One of the best public courses in the NorthEast

Happened to shoot my personal best of a 79 here 6/26/2025! An amazing course I could play daily. My only gripe is that some of the holes restrict carts in strange spots which can severely slow down pace but minus this imperfection the course and experience are elite. Well done!

Lost tee time

When we showed up, the pro shop did not have the tee time that I prepaid for in the computer. They had to squeeze up in for a later one. Since we had to wait a while, we decided to warm up at the range and putting green. Then we were told both practice facilities were closed for a camp. Very disappointing altogether. Once we actually got on the course we had fun even though the round was extremely long because it was cart path only I assume.
