Tamarack is my jam!

I have been playing tamarack for quite some time and I can’t stress enough how pleased I am with the improvements they have been making. The greens on the west course were putting true and quicker than last year. The course has always been wet in the past but there appears to have been large drains put in all over the course to combat this. Fairways were lush and set my ball up perfectly for approach shots. Check this course out!

First time out of the house!

Everything went according to schedule, teed off on time. Was never pushed by twosome behind us. Course was in ok shape, putting a lot of sod down. Greens need work, it’s a good weekday course to fine tune ur game.

Beautiful Day

Greens were fast, fairways were very well cut, and the westward 9 cup walk, with a temperature of 84 degrees was wonderful. I wasn't in a hurry, so I stopped to watch a family with two children behind me for a moment. The day and the fringes on the green were so beautiful, that the children were literally rolling down the short hill of the green, green grass-feeling joyful. It was getting late so I allowed the family to play through. Afterwards, I drove a great shot from the blue to the fairway. Wow, what a great day at Tamarack.

Good value

Greens and a few spots were a little rough, but overall very pleased. Staff did a good job given all cyber current restrictions due to the virus. Pace of play was very good.

Better

Played four days before this and greens were very slow. Yesterday they were better. Tees and fairways are good, still strange playing as a two ball.

Not as bad as Reviewers Indicated

It appears they are trying. The greens were slow due to previous heavy sanding. Once the grass starts growing a roller and a nice cut would be ideal.

Fairways were in good condition. Greens were being seeded. Overall it appears Middlesex Cnty is becoming more attentive to the condition of the golf course.

One of the worst courses in NJ

Due to lack of basic landscaping maintenance, Tamarack West and East are in horrible playing condition and sadly are two of the worst county courses in NJ.

Listed are negatives: poor drainage, dirt bare spots, weeds, unplayable greens due to too much sand and bare spots, bunkers only have 1 inch of sand with compacted concrete like base.

The only positive is that the course has a good layout and can potentially be decent.

This lack of maintenance seems to be a trend with all 3 Middlesex County Courses (Tamarack West and East, and Meadows).
