Back 9 Is Better Than Front 9...

The course was in okay conditions for it's age, but I do think groundskeeping could do a better job with certain areas of the course. The teeboxes, fairways, and greens were in great shape. The bunkers could use some manicuring around the edges, and the rough needs a lot of attention like adding weed & feed and over seeding. You can see the course is going to get dried out quickly if they don't start watering the course daily. They really need to water the course multiple times a day or its going to get burnt up quickly. We would recommend this to friends and would go back and play it again.

The best course in Jersey

LCC is honestly the best golf course in this NJ. If you don’t believe me go golf on a Sunday at 12:30. You arrive at 10:30, hit the range then by 11:15 you’re sitting at Maggie’s tiki bar having drinks until 12:15. Get 2-3 boozers in ya then go visit the most polite old man to start your round. Then once you’re playing, there’s nothing but amazing vibes on the course super nice fairways good pace of play fantastic greens and the best hole of all time hole 12. Nothing but rockets for cart girls and great vibes. once the round is over you go back to Maggie‘s for live music and dinner can’t beat this place.

A Pleasant Surprise!

Wow..way better than I expected. Greens were fast and true. Bunkers were well manicured with quality sand. Old school layout..in a good way. No housing, no noise. If you've never played, I think you'll be impressed. Not a long course, but plenty of room off the tee to small, interesting, contoured greens that will test your short game. Lively outdoor bar area too!

Terrible experience

They had no starter or ranger and course was way backed up. Teed off 20 minutes late. Group in front of us was backing up the whole course and wouldn’t let us play through. Called the club house and said they couldn’t send anyone to go talk to them. Had a 3 hour round and never even saw the group two in front of us. Terrible experience would never come back

Liars

Booked a single rider. Apparently there is a $10 fee for single rider not disclosed on GolfNow. Guy at front desk yelling at me that that is the policy. Never heard of extra fees being tacked on at club. Con artists. Disrespectful.

Sorry you were upset by the Booking information. Rather than charge for a full cart, we try and charge for a shared cart and only add an incremental $10 for a single rider. When you select a tee time we do try and have GN state that as clear as possible. I hope you stay and play next time and enjoy the course and its amenities.

Older gentleman in pro shop very rude. He was struggling with someone on the phone as I waited then 4 others golfers came in and he took them ahead of me because he knew them even when they all said I was there 1st. Sorry I was not a friend but I would have liked to warm up but couldn't because of the wait time and not being his buddy. Now the starter was a good dude real nice. Course is fun Lil track greens are interesting in a good way. Few tricky holes on back 9 if you don't know the course.
