Mattawang Golf Club
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.

We appreciate you taking the time to leave a review.
I needed to pick a course half way between Montgomery County, PA and my son in Hoboken, NJ. Mattawang was exactly the midpoint. We thoroughly enjoyed our round at this course, and will definitely return.
Thanks Frank, glad to see you enjoyed a round with your son and we look forward to your return.
Thanks Sean, appreciate you taking the time to leave a review.
Hidden gem
Ive played a few times lately. The course is in pretty good shape considering the weather for these past weeks.
I think its a hidden gem. Desk staff is friendly and the cart kid Michael was also very friendly!
i'll be back to try to shave off a couple strokes..
Thanks! appreciate you repeated play and kind words!
Hot day
Course is getting brown from lack of rain. Carts were allowed in rough only and no crossing the fairway. This is totally understandable due to the lack of rain in NJ over recent weeks. The greens must be getting plenty of water. They were very receptive and good shots were stopping quickly. As usual they were rolling very true. Drives were running a long way due to the hard dry conditions. Played in just under 4.5 hours. Make sure you tee off before 9 as this course struggles with pace of play as the day goes on. 5+ hour rounds are common. Back 9 is tougher than the front. I'll definitely be playing here again. Oh and bunkers have recently been filled with new sand that is very fluffy. They do a great job maintaining the course. Hope we get rain soon!
Thanks Hank, we appreciate you taking the time to leave a review. We too are in hopes of some rain!
Just a fyi, 5+ hour rounds have not been common at all since we changed our tee time system a few years ago.
Best bang for your buck !
This place is doing an amazing job keeping the course in great shape . They were out watering the greens and fairways throughout the round . They are trying everything in there power to keep the fairways and greens in amazing shape . Tee boxes are good fairways a tad dry as expected in this dry weather ( but they are doing there best ) greens are amazing . Great job to the ground crew
Thanks Jojo! It is nice to see you appreciate the work of the grounds crew. It has been a very difficult year for them! Enjoy the remainder of your golf season.
first time there in 20 years.
Nice people, fair prices and we were all but alone on the course as of 4PM. the front nine is much easier to score. The back is much more difficult and the course is LONG 6500 yds from the whites. be aware of that if you play there. lots of nature around and well maintained. We will be back. The length of the course may be the reason there were only 7 cars in the lot when we arrived.
A nice place to play . A hidden gem but long par 4 holes 388, 407, 437,426, 400,390,
It is great to see you came back for the first time in so long, hopefully you do not wait that long to join us again!

Mattawang Desperately Needs Water
Mother nature’s lack of rain has played shear havoc with this golf course. Although the greens are just fine, right now, you will be playing on quite a bit of Bermuda hay instead of the course’s normally well kept fairways. The $58 fee with cart per player, even on a Friday afternoon, is just way too much to be charging to play this course right now. As far as off course amenities are concerned, it would also be nice if they would get their coffee machine back in service for us morning golfers. I’ve been to this course about 6 times in the past 4 months, and every time the pro shop employees have to break the same bad news.
Much of this review differs from others opinions playing recently and the very same day. The coffee service was running for the morning golfers,. Your tee time was 1:27 and your request was to get coffee for the back nine at 3:30 PM.
Nice course. Extra s a little lacking. Tees greens n fairways in great condition
Thanks, glad to see you enjoyed conditions.
Bob, great to see you back for another Friday round! Enjoy!!
Thanks for taking the time to leave a review, glad to see you enjoyed the course and the day.

Course had very dry conditions due to lack of rain, but fairways and greens were in good shape. Greens small and fast. Quiet setting.
Thanks, glad to see you enjoyed the course and the setting!
