Rating 67.2

The standard 18-hole Green Tree Golf Course keeps in mind both skilled and inexperienced golfers. This public course has tight fairways lined with trees and greens of Rye Grass. The longest tees have a yardage of 5709, playing to a par of 70.

The golf course has three sets of teeboxes to provide an interesting game. There is also a driving range and practice green for beginners or those that would like some practice. The course is accessible from many major roads such as Routes 30 and 40 as well as the Atlantic City Expressway. The first shot is a difficult par-4 dogleg right that has water, bunkers, and heavy forest to look out for.

Problem with golf now app

My complaint is not with the coarse but the golf now app. The directions to the coarse provided in your app were 20 miles off. Causing us to miss our tee time significantly and almost not being able to play at all. If there is anything you can do to fix this issue please let me know. Thanks.

Cold day

We had an 8:19 tee time but were delayed for frost. Staff was great with communication of delay, reason, and estimated time we could get out. We got out 1 hour after schedule (earlier then originally thought)! Course was in great shape for the time of year. Definitely looking forward to playing it again.

Greentree is a great Muni course to walk, all things considered. Total yardage is on the short side, but you still get to use the big stick plenty (there's a par 6, after all). The true-rolling greens are significantly sloped and the staff seem to enjoy brutal pin placements to offset the shorter distances.

The cart paths are terrible and in the off-season, the fairways can get clumpy. Otherwise, you can't go wrong.

Staff are like family (in both good and bad ways)...

Great Day For Golf

Played with a friend, booking through Golf Now and getting an outstanding rate. Course in fairly good shape. Pace of play was excellent. Two golfers finished 18 holes in 3 hours. Only complaint, snack bar is rarely open now that summer season is over. Needed a hot snack having left from work to play round. Always a good place to get in an afternoon round.

It' better then watching the NFL

Played on recent Sunday afternoon and zipped around the course. For the most part the greens were in good shape, tee boxes passable the fairways were ok with a few rough spots but if nobody is looking just roll the ball onto some grass. I've been playing here for years and there are a handful of holes that i never pared, but there is always next Sunday. What time do the Birds play?

Poor conditions

Tee boxes and portions of fairways were poorly maintained. In some cases packed sand rather than grass. Played on day after rain so some rough areas were muddy but not marked off to keep carts away.

Also very slow play.
