About
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.

The conditions of the course are horrendous.
The greens were in terrible condition- brown, dirt spots, etc. and the fairways weren’t any better. There were a few fairways with weeds and high strands of grass. Overall upkeep needs improvement. The only saving grace was the pace of play as there weren’t many golfers out…
Basic golf
We have played here about a dozen times in the last three years. No bar or restaurant, no drink cart just basic golf. Pace of play is generally good. There is real sand in the bunkers, not like the dry dirt in some other courses. Narrow fairways but not a lot of trees so don't be surprised if you're playing from the adjacent fairway. Obviously I enjoy playing here otherwise I wouldn't have gone back so many times.
Good course for the money
Course is in good condition, most important things like tee boxes and greens are in mid-season form. Pace of play is great. When I need to get in a round in under 4 hours it’s my go to spot
Great course!!
Yesterday (11 June 2023) was my 3rd time playing here and booked it for Fathers Day with my son. Nice small warm up range which uses "floater" balls is perfect to get in some swings and the practice putting green next to the parking lot is in great condition. Love the conditions of the tee-boxes and greens. Almost every tee box is crowned in the middle except the par 3 3rd hole. Most if not all greens are sloped back to front just the way they should be. Two (2) fairways (5th, and i think the 11th) have some weed overgrowth but they are small areas and not a major deal.
Been playing nearly 30 years and yesterday I shot shot even par 36 on the front 9 with birdies on holes 2 & 5. I must've ran out of gas in the heat on the back nine and my 8.5 index came back to life! 5 double bogeys, +11, shot 83 total. SMH. about 45 minutes from Staten Island, NY and we will be back many more times! Especially after yesterdays best nine for me and after finding out an extra 9 or 18 holes can be had by paying an additional cart fee (if the course is not booked out).
Thanks for the thorough review, glad to see you enjoy the club and played well. That back nine can be very tough!!
Hope to see you again soon.
Sunday friends
Usually the course is in better shape, but for a prepay course the fairways were awful, they are losing greens and pace of play was over 4 hours 45 minutes!! Not again, Sorry
Keith, we appreciate you taking the time to leave a review, but I believe the negative comments are quite overstated.
We are not losing any greens or even close.
We also show your round was completed in 4 hours and 30 minutes.
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.

Great condition
Course was in great condition for the money. Highly recommended.
Thank you very much Del, glad to see you enjoy the course!
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review, we appreciate the five stars!
Lacks basic amenities.
This was once one of my favorite courses in the area. I was shocked to find no drinking water out on the course. Also there is no place to get any food. The course maintenance was average to below average. For the money there are better options in the area.
We appreciate your thoughts.
Great day for golf
Great weather. Course was busy but pace of play was moving. Course conditions are better and better every time I come back following last years drought.
John, thanks for your continued support, glad to see you enjoyed the course on a busy holiday weekend.
Thanks, glad to see you enjoyed the day!
Go play it!
Great layout. Good conditions. Friend ly staff. Fun to play
Thanks Tim, we appreciate you making the trip from PA
Fun Track, but Punched/Sandy greens at the moment
It’s definitely a fun little track that makes you hit some shots..
Bad luck that the greens were still recovering from a punch/covered in sand, and tee boxes could be flatter with a trim.
$80 for an out of towner on a weekend - seems about right these days
We appreciate you taking the time to leave a review. Greens work has to be done twice a year.
Fine course, 5 hour round
Course conditions were decent, but the round was 5 hours long. My group waited on every shot from start to finish, with at least two groups in front of us doing the same
Sorry about the pace of play issues, last Sunday was a Murphy's Law day. We had a bad car accident in front of the building which caused many players to be late, start late and overall bog down. The rangers did their best.
Great golf experience
First time and really liked it. The course slowly picked up in challenge and character and I truly enjoyed. Parts of the fairways still wore scars of last years drought, but conditions were good. Will definitely come back.
Thank you very much for the well thought out review, great to see that enjoyed the course.
It is tough to respond without more info.
