Great Gorge Golf Club - Lake/Quarry Course
About
Great Gorge Golf Club is situated on 500 acres of naturally preserved land, nestled in the Vernon Valley between the Wawayanda and Pochuck Mountain Peaks. Designed by George Fazio in 1970 on behalf of Hugh Hefner for his Great Gorge Playboy Club, the course boasts 3 championship nines: Rail, Lake and Quarry. With four tee box options, the course is manageable for newer golfers yet challenging for lower handicap players, making Great Gorge an ideal venue for all golfers.

Mr. Winston
First time playing, but not the last time. No disappointments from start to finish.
Course Rangers
Needs rangers to speed up the play. We got stuck behind a Group of 6 that were not very good. We skipped a hole to get past them.
Hidden Gem!
Great place and great people. Would be nice if they had coffee and/or food available when we got there (~8:30AM) but I don't want to pick on them for that as everything else was superb. This is no doubt because like every business these days its tough to get people to work We will be back!
Good conditions considering the lack of rain we've had.
Ground crews were watering many parts of the courses. Tee boxes and greens were in excellent condition. Some of the fairways were a bit dry and others were being watered. Considering the lack rain the area has had I think the courses were in better condition than most would usually be. Staff was friendly and helpful. Beverage Cart visits were frequent and cart girl was very friendly too. Overall a great day on a great course.
Greens fast but holding, despite drought. Great job by maintenance staff. The starter, Mona, is very friendly and did an excellent job getting us out on time. Highly recommend.
Unbelievable
Q to rail . What a perfect day for golf and the course was just spectacular!
challenging layout
Challenging layout - Quarry seemed harder than Rail but blind shots lead to many lost balls. Local knowledge here would help.
Ok course. 2 hours non weather delay
Tee time was 11:40. Finally teed off around 1:30. No weather issues just poor planning on the course. They did give a free range bucket of maybe 30-35 balls but not neatly enough for a 2 hour delay. Should have been fully refunded or a free round offer anything less is insulting at a 2 hour delay. Basically all they did was apologize and tell us to wait longer.
Course itself isn’t in bad shape but far from good. Tee boxes are horrendous not level at all. The golf carts breaks had issues and on this course that is a big deal. Be careful driving carts use a lot of caution the cart path has potholes bumps and is in terrible shape.
Overall it’s not bad but for the price we paid there is far better out there to play. Combined with the terrible delay and no effort to make up the delay not sure I could recommend this course to anyone at the moment.
$10.20 Cart Fee Charge by Golf Now?
What's up with Golf now adding a $10.20 cart fee?
If I booked directly with the golf course they do not charge a cart fee.
Golf Now? What a rip off !
