The Pines Course is one of three nine-hole courses at Eagle Ridge Golf Club in Lakewood. The Links and the Ridge are the other two. The courses can be played individually or as three different 18-hole combinations. The Pines Course is named after the mature, tree-covered landscape. It and the Ridge Course make up the original layout at Eagle Ridge G.C. They were built over a sand and gravel quarry that was used to help build the Garden State Parkway in the late 40s. The unique and undulating topography is a result of this. The towering pinelands lend a sheltered feel to the course as well as a challenging element to the game. There are also strategically placed bunkers that come into play along the greensides.

Good course but way overbooked on weekends for a rough 5 1/2 hour round.

I’ve played Eagle Ridge for many years and have enjoyed this place. Obviously, they closed 9 holes and now have 18 remaining. Couse was good and the people working there are doing their best but you can’t charge a premium price and treat your patrons with a 5 1/2 round. Tee times are bumper to bumper and our group waited at every single tee box on every hole. Unfortunately I’m forced to take this one off our weekend roster this year. Really a shame but management did absolutely nothing either on the course or after the round to attempt to fix this. Although they probably know the course is overbooked and you just have us accept it. Not good.

Mike

I just played here for two days in a row. Both days the pace was extremely slow. Four hours and 40 minutes each day. Looks like no one can do anything about it.

Good but not what it used to be

Great course, nice friendly staff, terrible pace of play, very well maintained course. It was an excellent course when it was 27 holes, now truncated to 18 holes, layout as well as cart paths etc are not so great. Still worth playing.

New Strange Layout

Nine holes were dropped from thie 27 hole layout that was there the last time I played.

The holes are still nice and a good challenge, but the layout is a strange routing and needs much better marking.

Ithere is much criss crossing and driving past holes that aren’t there anymore. It was definitely a negative that caused us to get lost and waste time. Even so, we got back in position and finished in 5 hours. Way too long!

Might be back if we can’t get a tee time elsewhere.

Eagle Ridge has changed

I played this course many times a few years back when they offered three 9-hole courses. The land has been purchased for alternative development and while the staff are still friendly and helpful - the course has been reduced to an 18-hole course. There are a few tough and very narrow holes which make it challenging. Unfortunately, a couple of blind tee shots on holes leave these holes rated at below average.

Course was in great shape but they recently changed from 27 holes to 18. Garmin hasn't updated the layout yet so the GPS watch doesn't work on some holes. Staff was friendly and helpful. Will definitely play here again.

Eagle Lakewood

Eagle Ridge is one of the better courses in Ocean County. However a couple improvements are necessary. Tee boxes and bunkers need some help. Fairways and greens are in good shape. Would be nice to have some water jugs on the course.

Also, pin placements are not identified.

Ruined the course with the changes.

Staff was great. Was a great course back in day. Then adding the 3rd 9 added to it. But over the last few years they ruined it by taking out the front nine and piecing the rest together. Another greedy builder ruined something good. Won’t be back. To many other options.

Challenging Diversity

Enjoyed the round. Tees, Fairways and Greens were perfect. Rough was high and thick. Layout is a bit strange and the course crisscrossed a few times from back and front. Need to address the rocks on the bunkers.
