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.

This course has value for money. The course provides enough yards to hit nearly all clubs in the bag.
Play here as often. Bring your cold water cooler, there's no cart drinks on the course. Staff are great and the course provides enough challenges to keep you wanting to break your target.
Course conditions
The greens seemed to have been aerated a few days before we played. The tee boxes and fairways were in great shape. Always a great time at Mattawang!!
Bob, it is great to see you back for another season! Glad to see you had a nice day.
Back 9 closed
Always a great course, unfortunately the back 9 is still closed and the greens were recently aerated but still in great condition.
Still closed?? The back nine was closed for 7 hours one day only to do the course work. Enjoy the season!
Thank you for trying Mattawang. Glad to see you enjoyed the day!
Nice layout
Always in great shape, real sand in the bunkers, none of that washed out hard pan. Narrow fairways but not a lot of trees so it’s relatively easy to find errant shots. Small driving range for warming up. Wish they had a bar/grill/snack bar. Just a good day of golf.
Ram, thanks for returning in 2025. We appreciate your support!
Thanks for making the trip from Staten Island!
Thank you for joining us for some late winter golf. Enjoy the '25 season.
Great public course
Friendly staff and fun course. Carts are kinda pricy ($20/person)
Thanks for the kind words. Glad you enjoyed the course. I think you will find the price of the carts to be average. Most clubs include the price of the cart in with the greens fee. We give golfers the choice to walk or ride on weekends and all through the week. Enjoy 2025!
Great course
Great course even in the off season. Small greens but they roll great
Thank you for joining us on one of the few playable days this winter. Hope to see you again soon!
Great Place to Play During the Offseason
We travel down to Mattawang from NJ’s most northern county, Sussex, during the offseason because the greens are kept open all year and the conditions are very good considering the time of year.
We greatly appreciate you making the long journey to Mattawang in the off season. Hopefully, the weather allows us a lot of nice days this winter and into spring.
Always a good round
We try to play here frequently. Course is always in good shape, better than a lot of the county courses. Good pace of play.
Thank you Ram! As always we appreciate your support and feedback.
Thank you Hyun, we are glad you found Mattawang and it is great to see you enjoyed the course.
