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.

Good Condition need a ranger

The course was in good shape except for bare spots on a few tees. The pace of play ground to a halt on the back 9 as the 2 foursomes ahead of us had at least 3 open holes in front of them by the end & there was no ranger to move them along

GGG 9.14.24

Greeted by friendly staff and started on time. Unfortunately,

My start time was on the back end of a tournament and pace of play was extremely slow. The fairways and tee boxes were in good conditions while the greens still had a slight bumpiness from aeration a few weeks ago.

Food at Hef’s Hut was very good.

Nice course

The course os in great shape. Worth going to and does not get the respect it deserves. The only know is the car paths need repaving. If forced to take a cart, have the conditions better. The golf course tres, fairways and greens were in great shape. Especially for this tome of year

Starter !!!

The elderly female starter at this course attended to her familiar customers first, making us wait for a long time. We patiently began our round, but all the greens were aerated. They should have informed us about this situation in advance.

Great Golf

Pulled into a large parking lot and it was nice to have a gentleman driving around picking players up in the lot and bring up to clubhouse.

The woman started has the worst attitude and is harsh! The carts are locked until it is your time to play. She gives us the okay to go to first tee and then she comes flying down the hill screaming at us to stop. Once again screaming to stop and not go to the tee. She is yelling everything is backed up the first couple of tees. She then tell me we have to wait another 20 minutes before teeing off. Turned into 30 minutes. It was okay we had time to practice our putting. Finally get to the tee and the group in front of us took over 15 shots to get to the tee. The first 6 holes we were backed up. The pace was slow-no rangers were present the entire round. Back nine was great. It seems many players dropped off after nine. Greens were recently air rated.

Cart girl was nice in the course BUT her puts were very short. She tried to tell me that a 3 count is all she pours…um no it’s a 5 count.

Had a fun day and will definitely be back.
