Very Beautiful Course - Great Value
One of the most scenic courses in North Jersey. Only downfall was that the greens had been recently aerated and no mention on GolfNow. Otherwise Excellent

Good day out
In short beautiful views course could use some TLC on the cart path, but the view made up for it. Well kept enough for the money. It is a shame the area has such run down appearance but once you are out the course that goes a away and you get some good view especially with the turning leaves.
