Bowling Green Golf Club
About
Bowling Green Golf Club is in the heart of northern New Jersey, surrounded by miles of idyllic countryside. An abundance of mature oaks and towering red pines characterizes the scenic course. This quick, shady layout is a great round for walkers. The golf course has a classic links design that is easily played in less than four hours. Like most traditional links courses, the gently undulating terrain has the perfect pitch and roll. It also provides each hole with unique challenges that require accuracy and strategy. Trees heavily line the fairways, presenting some of the course's most formidable challenges. Bowling Green Golf Club's front nine is slightly more forgiving than the back nine, which incorporates the natural ponds and wetlands on a few holes. There are also some tricky doglegs to contend with.

The Way Golf Should Be
Played a round (first time this course) on a Sat afternoon in June...usually a prime time for crowded conditions and slower play but we experienced neither. Course is very well kept and was in great shape despite heavy rains the night before. Even under pandemic restrictions, with the range open and the halfway house laying down some righteous dogs you could almost a normal world existed for 4 hours. Staff were very helpful and seemed genuinely glad to be there accommodating golfers. If this is what slightly off the beaten path gets you, then I’m a believer in the effort: driving a short piece afforded us enjoying the game in peace and without the annoyances that so often accompany higher trafficked venues.
Well maintained, great value.
Grabbed an end of the week tee time with three co workers. Staff was great especially with some of the recent complications. Played through a wet day and course was still in really good shape. Would absolutely play here again.
Slow greens
Course is in good condition. Greens were recently aerated, very slow and bumpy..staff, especially the starter very unfriendly almost rude. Wish they pave the cart paths.
Hidden Gem
You will not find a better place for a great price. Always a good pace, if not a ranger will be there to move it along. I love going during the week as it is usually pretty empty. Enjoy your round and afterwards the food is very good !
Classic Course Flow
Interesting mix of open fairways, with tight tee offs blended in, water hazards and large greens. Overall a nice rhythm to the course and consistency in design. Grass this time of year was perfect. Tee boxes better than most greens at NY munis. Leaves can hide your balls so hit a provisional if you don’t wanna poke around.
Great Day
Course is in excellent shape. Greens running true. Pace of play was very good. Excellent day of golf.
An Enjoyable Autumn Round of Golf
Played Bowling Green for the first time. The course was in great condition. The pace of play for a Saturday afternoon was acceptable. I recommend playing this course. Nice scenery.
ok course, not great
course is in ok shape, the greens are in average condition, but not what you expect on a course where you pay near $100/round. Holes are laid out well. but fairways and greens can be maintained better. We enjoyed but would not recommend for this price.
Rating 3.5/5.
Just Good Golf
At first, the course may seem boring, but no it’s not. It’s a very good golf course, and it requires you to be straight off of the tee. The course is always in good shape.
Fabulous course
My favorite course, like playing a private course great layout.great pace of play, friendly helpful staff,,and always in great condition!
Greens are in great condition. Course is narrow but good layout with different shot selections of the tees
