Just okay

The course was not in great shape, especially the greens. They were aerated and covered in sand. Made green play very difficult. Fairways were patchy and off the fairways were not mowed in areas. Layout is good and has potential to be very nice but it needs a little more

upkeep.

Sad

Fairways have many bare spots,, rough overgrown with weeds, overall unkempt appearance, greens had been aerated and sanded, no advance notice, no discount. No rangers to enforce pace of play

Worst Round / Pace of play

Besides having worst conditions I’ve seen all summer. This course allowed a foursome to hold up the whole course. With booking an evening tee time during the week. The pace of play was over 5 hours. Even though it’s the cheapest course around. Not worth the $32 when the staff will do nothing to make things better. Employees love sending friends out on course for free and hold everyone up.

Great Course - everything else horrid

1- The golf course never alerted GN that the greens were aerated and was charged full freight. With that said they were in better shape then the course. I’ve played many courses in bad shape. I’ve never seen a course this bad.

2- The golf course never alerted GN it was cart path only as well and we weren’t alerted until the 7th hole. A manger (we think) came out to tell us. When he did we apologized and said we weren’t told. His reply “Well now you are.”

3- Tamarack West is a phenomenal course. What a shame they have let this turn into. Hopefully one day it will be back to where it was in the 1990’s when I played there last because it doesn’t deserve to be treated this bad and poorly run. Shame on you Middlesex County NJ.

Surprising

The greens are in surprising good shape, for Tamarack at least.

Better than the East Course!

We've played the East course several times and the West is much better! It would be very wet after a hard rain, but as long as its dry, the layout is better and the holes more interesting. Tough water holes and long par 3s!

Beautiful course but ZERO maintenance

Tamarack is a beautiful course but unfortunately the condition of the course (tee boxes, greens, fairway, rough) are all horrendous. One of the worst conditions I have seen a course.

Dehydrated course!!! Water

The course could be much better if they watered it and repaired the fairways and greens. Lots of holes with major matches of dirt. If in better condition would have been more enjoyable to play.
