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.

Love this course
I love that can play 2 of us
Beautiful course too
Rainy Day but course played well
Scattered rain all morning but the course held up well. Only negatives were the tee boxes and the bunkers. I know we are later in the season but the Tee boxes had a lot of divots, holes, and just needed to be maintained. Started teeing 2 yards behind the markers. Bunkers need to be maintained a bit more. Well at least players need to do their part after playing from it.
GREAT GORGE REVIEW
Course has so much potential. T-boxes, rough, and sand traps all need work and TLC. Greens were nice and super fast...almost too fast. Cart paths in terrible condition as is parking lot. I thought it was a bit pricey for what you got. This should be about a $50 course vice a $90. But layout is great and fun. Could really be a top course with right care and vision.
Great day
Course was in good shape with some challenging holes. Views were an added bonus as is Hef’s Hut for a cold beverage after the round.
Great price
Fast greens challenging blind shots from elevated tees course a must play
Recommend playing
Looking forward to going back and play this again
It’s been awhile…
I haven’t played Great Gorge in over 10 years. Played Rail/Quarry today and a lot has changed. First, the fairways and weren’t uniformly in great shape. Tee boxes and greens were in pretty good shape. Second, they removed the gps system from the golf carts. Not knocking the course, but I remember it being pristine back in the day.. It was def worth the $46 hot deal though.
Views are amazing and greens can be tricky if you’re not paying attention. Can be challenging enough for low handicappers and enjoyable for high handicappers depending on what set of tees you hit from.
All in all, we’ll worth the fee, but def wouldn’t travel from Staten Island again. It’s not the course I remember.

Unfriendly female staff
This course is designed to be quite difficult and many challenges await. However, the unkindness of the staff rather than the course made it quite unpleasant during the game, and I vowed not to come back to this golf course again because of the steps.
