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.

Great course

Great track. Very different with 100 foot high tees and fabulous views. It was a 5 hour round so that wasn't good.

Had one of the best cuban sandwiches afterward. Definitely one of the must plays in northern new jersey. Worth the ride.

Nice Course but slow

I found the course to be challenging and in great shape this late in the season. The girls taking you up the hill in the big carts is a nice touch. The starter was also very friendly. The only negative was the pace of play was extremely slow. It took over five hours to finish the round.

Beautiful Course - Fast Pace

Beautiful course, very well kept / maintained grass. Pace of game was very quick. Wouldn’t recommend for beginners TBH, majority of the players who were there had minimal errors. But if you don’t care, I would HIGHLY recommend going.

Enjoyable Day

Except for the aerated greens the course was in good shape with difficult pin placements. Well worth the few extra minute drive north of the Crystal Springs facilities.

Beautiful

Played rail side to quarry. Really nice layout. One hole had an old train platform by the green that they built a bunker around. The quarry 9 was sweet too with a crystal clear pond. Nice elevation changes.

Decent Course

Like all courses now it's pricey for what you get. Fairways we're in good shape. Greens recovering from aeration so putting was not reliable. Traps were awful - dirt with rocks. Just fill them in and cover with grass at this point.
