Skyway Golf Course at Lincoln Park West

I play Skyway on and off during the season as its really close to my house. Of the 20 times or so that I have played this course in the last 3 years, today it was in it's worse possible condition.

The bunkers had very little sand, you could actually see the drainage pipes in them. The fairways were chewed up. And the worst part were the greens. They extremely inconsistent and half of them were sanded down like crazy.

I really hope this was an off day and the course can go back to the pristine condition it was in (especially the greens).

This is a really high-quality nine hole golf course. Don’t expect much from the off course facilities, but the course itself is a very fun and beautiful challenge set in the middle of a very industrial area. I wouldn’t be surprised if enemies of the Sopranos were buried during the course construction :)

Fescue was high, greens are fast and true, wind can be a big factor. I’m looking forward to playing it again now that I know the layout

I played on Father’s Day so I expected a packed course and slower than ordinary play. Well 2 hours and 20 mins in I was about to tee off on the 7th hole- almost 25 mins. per hole! So where did the course management go wrong? First they grew the fescue as high as I’ve eve seen it- bad move that makes the course too challenging for the caliber of player the course attracts; 2) Little on course presence to make sure that the pace is maintained

As a side note they were totally unprepared for a busy Sunday. No hot dogs available in the clubhouse grill by 1 PM. Outdoor grill dismantled by 2 PM. I was told that the Fodd and Bev manager is off on Sunday and the delivery is on Monday. The employees at the course are nice but you could see the impact of lack of effective management. I’ve always loved this course, but with all the sub $50 tee times ( 18 holes) available at other courses this year, I don’t see myself returning anytime soon. P.S. I walked off after teeing off on 7. Asking me to hit my shots 10 mins apart is a course’s biggest mistake. Takes all the fun out of it...

Living in Hudson County and NOT having $500,00.00 to join Liberty or Bayonne is a drag. Finally having a public course within the county is a true blessing. Finding out that the course is not only beautiful, well maintained and challenging, is only improved upon by the staff. They treated us as if we HAD paid 1/2 million dollars. No question as to the fact that we will be back. Skyway is on top of my local course recommendations!

A nine hole course demanding one keep it in the fairway, or be prepared for unplayables and lost balls in long rough and mounds covered with weeds, especially on the three tough par 5's. Actually, ascending the mounds lining the fairways is prohibited. Regardless, the course is a fair test of one's skills sometimes complicated by the winds which tend to blow regularly. Still, it's a golfing oasis in crowded Jersey City where only the elites can play private Liberty National.

An empty parking lot here doesn’t mean the course is empty since many of the golfers arrive via Lyft/Uber from Hoboken and Jersey City.

The course is in great condition with firm fairways that are wide enough for a fade but a slice gets you in the fescue. Hitting out if the fescue if you can find your ball is really tough. Play a provisional for the errant tee shot.

Greens were reasonably fast and true. The bunkers our 4 some explored were all in good condition.

This course is best when walked as the cart only slows down play if you venture over the mounds or into the fescue.

The course was very well maintained for the time of year. Retained excellent playability in the wind. It does have a different make-up of holes, having 3 of each par hole. That adds to the variety. Overall, very solid. A recent book was released ranking the 25 best nine hole courses in North America, this course is better than one of the courses on that list, in my opinion.

greens in good condition, fairways good condition wide fairways on most fairways

A great course to get out and play 9 holes. It has a good mix of par 3’s , 4’s and 5’s. Always in decent shape!

Golf now advertised $22 and someone behind the counter claimed that the price was the incorrect. I had booked the tee time through golf now and they initially weren't willing to honor it. After a few seconds of panic and uncertainty, another staff member told their colleague to give me the price and render the miscommunication through golfnow. It appeared that this had happened before to the location and through golfnow. I would be wary about booking a tee time with Skyway again, as their advertised prices online DO NOT correlate to the rates they want at the clubhouse. BE WARY ABOUT THIS COURSE, ESPECIALLY IF YOU ARE NOT A HUDSON COUNTY RESIDENT!!!!

I can't say enough about Skyway. The course is great. The day I played, I saw the maintenance crew sanding divots in the fairways and fixing ball marks on the greens.

The views are breathtaking. But, the staff at Skyway are absolutely the best. From the time I arrived in the parking lot until the time I left, I felt as if the staff wanted my experience to be more memorable than I did. To me, this is what customer service is all about. I will be back, and next time, and not alone.

Just went out for quick round. Rain kept many away, course was wide open.

I am just amazed how great the greens are, they roll very true. The course was in greart shape.

I have enjoyed every round i have played out there. A must play.

Played on a weekday. Fast pace of play. Great links style course within the city—good value too. Slope rating is definitely not accurate. Course is much easier than a slope of 135 for example. More like 125. But regardless a nice and fun track. Friendliest staff too.

Great course! Layout is great! Fairways great! Greens great! Weather beautiful! My game... needs some help today.

...for out of county. $49 to ride 9 holes as a senior?And that's probably why the pace of play was good, not many golfers.

Otherwise a very good golf course. It's difficult from off the fairway, so keep in straight. Greens are excellent.
