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.

One employee ruined great rounding.

Last year I experienced very bad incident with woman starter. This year the same. Senior lady was nice but another one still showed the same. I learned from other golfers who said she is notorious.

Used to be well maintained

The tee box is like the worst municipal county course the green is decent the bunker is like cement with lots of ground under repairs. I wish a better management will take this course over to bring it back to its old glory!!! I always love the layout and the view but something should change

Always a good time

Course is always fun with a great layout and it is well maintained. Been playing here for a few years now. Father’s Day definitely had some lazy dads not fixing pitch marks but that’s on the players not the course. Will be back again and again and again.

Fun but slow day

I see people complaining about the cart paths and the carts. If you are looking for top of the line carts or paths that are paved smooth then don't play here. The course was well kept some t boxes were good others not so much but for $45 during the week the place is well worth it. Only problem was pace of play. It was slow. 1130 t time and finished exactly 5 hours. The burgers at the turn were good. Oh and the greens are pretty tough. Played rail/lake and some challenging putting but great day overall.

Unorganized and overcrowded

Worst 10 holes in my life. Took me and my brother 4.5 hours to get through 10 holes because we were constantly waiting on people. We had to leave after the 10th hole because it wasn't worth staying at that point. The staff were extremely unorganized not know where to send golfers due to having 3 sperate 9 hole courses. I was supposed to be refunded, but the staff did not follow through. Its a shame how mismanaged this course was. I never write reviews, but had to express myself this time. I will never being going back.

No Rangers

Fine course but pace of play was slow. Often waiting for group in front of us to tee off as they were waiting for groups in front of them. Did not see a ranger during the entire round to move the pace along.
