Needs some help, has potential

Course has a good layout, but the grounds are in terrible condition. From what I understand it is under new ownership and I guess they are in the process of repairing and rebuilding it. I knew this going out and I was still pretty shocked at how things were. There was one tee box that had green grass, but the real issue we had was the ground was harder than rock. We could of used a hammer to get our tees in the ground. Fairways were also all rock hard, couldn't take a divot if you wanted to. Everything rolls and rolls and rolls here, grass (whats left of it) doesn't hold any shot. If the new ownership gets a good grounds crew out there and they work on it for the next year or two it could be in nice shape. But it's a far ways off as it is currently. Pace was slow, we waited on every single hole, no one out there keeping players on time. Also dress code seemed to be come as you are, saw a few pairs of denim shorts out there.

Improving every day

Consider this my local course. The new owners are consistently improving the course as well as the pro shop. Im a sucker for new golf hats and they have added nearly 2 dozen different local club hats since the beginning of the summer. Also the bar always has a rotating stock of great beers on tap.

Golf at Centerton

The new management is making a serious effort to revive this golf course. The previous management had this course taken down The course needs lots of work. The greens are long better but the fairways have patchy grass.

The weather was great

We were 25 min late due to an online booking that never got to their system. That also created slow play. It was a 5 hr round. Some greens are not good n a lot of rough needs work. A lot of the Sr tee boxes were just a cut out patch and not an actual tee box. But the price was good and u get what u pay for. But if I paid regular price at anytime, I wouldnt Have been too happy

Rough shape

Course had more weeds then my backyard. Also

It would have been cheaper to book direct with the course than through golf now. Ridiculous

It's getting better all the time

They are moving in the right direction, it won't happen overnight but everything is improving.I just hope they don't get too popular and price me out. if you haven't played here in awhile go back and see for yourself,' but don't pay the big big bucks just yet.

Not worth it -- not at all

There are so many decent courses to play in South Jersey that one has to wonder how it is that Centerton is even an option.

First, let's talk fees. We were a threesome. Two of my partners received a "2 for $61 special rate". I was charged the full $49 because I was a single, even though I was part of the threesome. Centerton could have extended the $31 rate to me, but chose not to. That's bad form, certainly not conducive to building good will.

So, what did I get for that $49? A course where every tee was so torn up and unlevel that it was difficult to find a spot where one could comfortably tee off. That is unacceptable at any course.

What else? 16 out of the 18 greens were in such a state of disrepair (huge sections of each green that are dug out, uneven, unkept) that you cannot expect the ball to roll evenly or fairly. It's unacceptable.

Bottom line, we went there because we'd heard if was "under new management" and had been "improved" since our prior visit several years ago. Well, it hasn't. It was worse.

Centerton, you've lost my business forever. Period. Full stop.

A $25 Course

You get what you pay for at this course. They are attempting to improve it. Greens were fairly good shape, tee boxes need a lot of work. Not a real challenging course. Mostly flat and relatively easy.

Nice people at the course both the workers and other players, but would not pay more than $25 to play.

The course has great potential.

The Fairways were in awful shape. They desperately need water. Most of the greens were in good shape.

The sand traps are pathetic. The sand trap at the green of the 6th hole had chunks of sod in it. Ridiculous especially on the Memorial day week end.

The course has a lot of potential. I hope everything is addressed soon.
