Rating Snapshot
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.

Excellent greens
First time playing the course. I was a little nervous pulling into course because of the surroundings; but I was very pleasantly surprised after teeing off. I played lakes and quarry. All the greens are healthy and fast. Fairways are lush and a very nice layout. I would return
tee times need to be spaced out more.....and although i understand its to preserve the course but cart path only on some holes when the course is extremely dry makes no sense.....It just makes the wait longer
Great scenery
Not only is the course fun to play and well maintained, the views are amazing. The cats are clean. The greens are fast, fairways well kept. Even the concessions are fast and priced well.
Fun course good challenge can’t wait to play again
Seen better days.
I've played this coarse several times over the years, but its current condition is mediocre at best. The cart paths are in horrible shape as it was a roller coaster ride throughout. The carts themselves are really old and dated. The rough was uneven and slightly overgrown which made finding balls a challenge all day. Being within a crumbling and deteriorated abandoned hotel complex make's the visual unappealing. For a $60 round in a pinch, I'd begrudgingly consider it one more time but for $97 I won't return.
Although there are marks of aeration, it was good compared to the price I bought at Golf Now.
great day of golf
we have played here before and always enjoy the course
we play from the white tees and find the course challenging, but fair
course is in excellent condition
1st round of the season
The course was in good shape. Course is challenging and fun to play.
Golf Play
Like the electric golf carts. No ball washers, club cleaners, and no ability to bring a personal ball and club cleaner on course. Need more porta-johns per course, water coolers would be appreciated as there were no service carts for drinks, food, etc. Range Marshalls would be greatly appreciated. Finally, members need to be educated on USGA rules of golf, as well as, a course in manners.
Will Play Again
Good Course & Friendly Staff. Hope To See Better Cart Path Next Time🌹
First timer
Great course. Very playable for average golfers. Great conditions with tough greens.
Solid Courses
Great Gorge is solid—a good challenge for all types of players.
Tired and old
In general, this is barely a 4 star course. 3.5 at best. Everything just seemed tired and old. Between the abandoned old playboy resort buildings and deteriorating parking lots and roads, It just felt like Hugh Hefner was still haunting the place being creepy.
$75 a round is steep for carts with NO GPS and the course conditions were as good as a county course. Which is pretty much mediocre.
Staff are nice, but....I won't be back anytime soon.
Best Conditions i have seen in a while!
Coarse was in great shape , staff friendly and very accommodating, pro shop is stocked and grill was up and running . And even a bonus. Outdoor grill for fast turn, staff actually used all 3 9’s to alleviate traffic . Definitely will return
