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.

Played the course many years ago in its gay day. Unbelievable views, glad to see it being revitalized -

Cart paths need some work. but I’m sure it’s coming.

I have played it several times this fall and I’m a Li w as us challenged by this course.

Beautiful courses and best value for the price.

Three courses are beautiful!

Lake course. Quarry course and Rail course. I also liked club house and food they served such as grilled hotdog and hamburger which gave us to play 18 holes.

Nice day of fall golf

Had a great round yesterday with a couple friends. Very warm November day. The course was in terrific shape. You have to hand it to grounds crew. All the leaves were blown into the woods. The fairways and rough were incredible as were the traps. The greens were awesome looking. Yet they were a bit fast being this late in the season. It was difficult putting and getting the speed right. All in all a great round. And the Hef's Hut restaurant in the clubhouse was amazing. Great look and feel. Nice menu and drink selection. All the staff at Great Gorge were friendly and welcoming. Definitely will be back.

Course was great, speed was not

6 plus hour round of golf… we waited at least 10 minutes before we could tee off each hole, much longer on par 3s. Back 9 was quicker, but after 3 1/2 hours for front 9, we couldn’t even finish the round. Really unfortunate for an otherwise nice course.
