Mattawang Golf Club has changed very little since it first opened in 1960. The traditional layout has withstood the test of time as a challenging but playable layout. The course was designed to blend seamlessly into the natural setting while still testing your shot-making skills. You won’t find any man-made water hazards or artificial mounding on this golf course, instead you’ll be challenged by natural streams and ponds and mature evergreens. At first glance, the layout is seemingly wide open, but don’t let your guard down because the fairways are actually quite tight and many of them are strategically lined with trees. In keeping with the time it was built, the greens are smaller than those you would find on most modern golf courses and heavily protected by sand traps. Over the years, Mattawang Golf Club has built a reputation for having some of the well maintained putting surfaces in the area.

4.5 hour round is common on a Saturday in NJ but the ranger could have moved things along.

Course is in immaculate condition, second to none of all the courses we play in our rotation. Only wish they had an earlier first tee time than 8:00. We like to get out early and beat the heat during the summer.

Sunday morning fun

Played early at734 . Pace of play was great. The greens were in great condition and true. The course was in great shape condition and pretty dry fairways, with no standing water due to overnight rains. Fun times with our walk up twosome of Pete and Rick. Thanks for a great round.

Played on July 26

Course was in very good shape. Tee boxes were impeccable. Fairways green & soft. Greens gettable and rolling true. Traps well maintained. Incredible shape considering the weather we've had locally over the past few weeks.

My only negative feedback would be the lack of drinking water on the course.

Look foreard to playeng again soon.

Well maintained courses and friendly staffs

Course is in excellent condition. Not to many people play in a could-be-raining afternoon from weather forecast. We breeze through 18 holes in 2 and 1/2 hours.
