Pinch Brook Golf Course in Florham Park may be a short course, but it should not be underestimated. The layout offers all the challenges of a championship course conveniently wrapped in an executive-length course. Water hazards come into play on nearly every hole, including a pond on the seventh that is shaped like the state of New Jersey. The elevated and undulating greens putt fast and true. They present a test for even the most seasoned golfers. The par-3 holes are particularly tough. Most of them feature strategically placed bunkers fiercely guarding the double-tiered greens, that or a forced carry. The golf course is great for honing your short game skills or for squeezing in a quick but challenging round. Pinch Brook G.C. is hailed by locals as the best short course in northern New Jersey.

Good course for the money

This is a very nice course, and for the price I paid, was well worth it. The people behind the desk can be a little snobby and off putting, but they gave me a better deal and an earlier tee time when I showed up early, so they are businessmen at heart.

Overall, good time, and it was worth the money.

Nice flat well maintained course

Pinch Brook is a very well maintained course, easy to navigate, moderately challenging and the staff all very friendly. Pretty landscaping with lilly ponds, weeping willows and lots of wild life. Got a birdie on 9th hole - lots of possibilites!

Great course for a casual round of golf

Very enjoyable place to be.
Should be played at a faster pace for a relatively short course.

Not a bad course. The Golfnow.com hot deal is a bargain. I'm not sure what happened to the other reviewer but my greens fees including cart was less than $20 on a weekday.

Nice Course...beware golf now deal

I booked an 8:10 am tee time at this course through golf now that was supposed to include a round of golf and motor cart. However, when I arrived at pinch brook, I was informed that there was some sort of mistake and that the cart wasn't actually supposed to be included. Rather than honor the mistake, they wanted to charge me an additional $17 for the cart and said that I should take up the issue with golf now. Very disappointing!

Pinch Brook was having issues with golfnow posting incorrect pricing so its not the course fault, why should they lose money. especially when residents would pay more to play than a golf now booking?? I bet you got the golf cart as I have played here many times and they have always honored any golfnow pricing issues. so for that they should be thanked!!

Perfect course for the beginners and ladies.

Water hazards give the short holes some difficulty.

It is a course to sharp your iron game

a lot of part 3 to sharp your short game. If you have 3 to 4 hours for an easy afternoon, it is for you. Not regular 18 holes course. Short one, but decent. p.s. I didn't say it is easy, right!
