Green Knoll Golf Course in Bridgewater Township has a varied terrain that provides a unique character to the course. The course sprawls across gently rolling hills dappled with mature trees. Much of the course's challenges are a result of the tricky contours. Some of the elevation changes are dramatic but there are also some subtle ones, which can be just as tricky. Further accuracy is required to maneuver the tight fairways. There are definitely challenges in store throughout but overall the golf course's playability appeals to all skill levels, from novices to avid golfers. It measures a manageable 6,443 yards from the back tees. In addition to the 18-hole course, there is also a nine-hole pitch-and-putt course. Green Knoll is one of five golf courses operated by the Somerset County Park Commission.

Nice course in decent shape except for sand traps.

Wouldn’t recommend playing here after it rains…. Course doesn’t seem to drain well

Bring bug spray. Should enforce pace of play more/ better.

Challenging but Well-kept

I lost quite a few balls playing around the trees and water but the fairways and rough grass are maintained much better than other courses I’ve played in New Jersey. Only got 11 holes but still felt like it was a good value for what I paid.

Awful Customer Service and Staff Friendliness

I’ve been playing here for 10 years and never have I heard the bs rule of “once you drive to the back 9, you can’t get refunded”. Lightning in the air and starting to rain. Didn’t hit a tee ball and you can’t refund any money of the jacked up rates you charge for rounds. Terrible experience and customer service. Best of luck!

County member and resident. My home course that I have played well over 50 times. 9/10 times the staff is so rude and unfriendly. Will 100% never be back. BS customer service and accountability.

Do better.

Horrible treatment to golfers. Always bad attitudes as well

I’ve been playing here for 10 years and never have I heard the bs rule of “once you drive to the back 9, you can’t get refunded”. Lightning in the air and starting to rain. Didn’t hit a tee ball and you can’t refund any money of the jacked up rates you charge for rounds. Terrible experience and customer service. Best of luck!

Not to mention how rude the staff is 9/10 being there. County member and resident. Surely won’t be back which is a shame because this is my home town course. Do better.

Great course

For a public course it is in great shape. Many challenging holes, you may need to play strategically. Just your basic club house, vending machines & bathrooms. Got a hot deal which made it even better. I would still play this course without a hot deal.

Nice public course

This is a nice course in the Somerset County park system.

Well maintained from tee to green.

Not pristine and manicured like a country club but very good conditions for a public golf course.

No food and beverage available with the exception of some vending machines in the club house.

Excellent place if you’re just interested in playing a round and not hanging out afterwards.

No driving range but a large, well maintained putting green.

Pace of play was good for a weekday. Caught up to the group ahead on the back 9 but waiting time was acceptable. Might be slower on weekends.

Would recommend to others.

Not worth it

Lobby of the pro shop smelled like an elderly home.

Group in front of us walked resulting in 5+ hour round.

No cart girl for drinks. Only thing available was vending machines in the smelley pro shop.

Tee boxes below average with some not level.

Fairways and greens were good.
