Harkers Hollow Golf Club

This course is owned by the same people as Apple Mountain. For me to get there is a bot over an hour away the same as Apple Mountain. The difference both are hilly course's but Apple Mountain is in better condition. The staff was very friendly and gave us honest information on the conditions. The greens were in great shape but some of the tee boxes needed a lot of work. From what we were told the are doing improvements to the place some I hope one day it will be back to it's formed glory

A nice course but the back nine had a lot of leaves lost a few balls is fun o play

Course much improved from earlier this year - efforts to make improvements to conditions are evident. Fairways were damaged before - better now. Greens are excellent. Course staff friendly and efficient. Seems to draw older players, but slower ones were courteous and allowed me as a single to play through at first opportunity. Hills and slope of back nine require (in my opinion) a power cart - difficult walk in some places. At rate I got through GolfNow, this was a good value and I enjoyed the round.

Layout nice, but playing in a cow pasture is not my idea of fun. Greens not bad, everything else THE WORST. Plus NO senior tees.

Course has great potential. Tee boxes and fairways have been let go as well as sand traps. Very poorly maintained. Greens appearance was pleasing but very spongy and soft. With some work this can be a great course.

The course layout is fairly good, but the conditions were not. Crabgrass is everywhere! Most greens are in good condition, but that is the only part of the course that is. Bunkers were virtually unrecognizable, mostly dirt, grass and, you guessed it, crabgrass!

The price for 18 holes was great for the western New Jersey area but he course is not in good shape. the sand traps are over grown, the fairways are a mix of grass and weeds and the tee boxes are not maintained. The greens were in good shape. The course is basically a back and forth pattern of holes with very few interesting design elements. For a day a with your friends on the links the price to play here would have to determine if I go back. the hot deals had me drive the 45 minutes to get there but the course did not make it so I have to go back.

Great layout, wonderful scenery, 3 1/2 hour round on a Sunday, friendly staff and players, good greens, ... what more can you ask for? Well I guess fairways cut shorter without being 75% crab grass. Also, either add sand to the bunkers or truly make then grass bunkers. Having said that, I played the course with my nine year old son and we had a great time. Course plays fair and has a nice mix of holes. If you are not picky regarding fairway playing like fairways, the course is fun to play.

The course overall in poor condition with lack of regular maintain ce is visually noticeable from the get go and through out the course. The greens rolled well which is what ever course needs at a minumin to call themselves a course. I recommend the course for the average and or beginning players but for your die hard and or people wanting to play on manicured tees, greens, bunkers, and rough this is not at this point the place to go. I only took the opportunity to play it from what I heard it was when it was private. As a golfer I would love to see this course be better maintained and if done if would definitely be a course I would play regular just on for its characteris

There was no sand in the sand traps but solid ground and grass. In one trap there was even a real animal trap!!!!! Tee boxes were bare sand and in some were cut merely in the middle of the fairway. Greens were ok. Beautiful views though. Bought a Hot Deal from $14 with cart. At least a couple of dollars more than a large bucket of range balls in my area.

The course has a nice layout with some interesting holes but is not well maintained. Bunkers were overgrown with grass/weeds and fairways were in poor condition at best. Would have loved to see/play this course when it was a country club. For the price I paid I would play it again.

The first three things I noticed when I arrived at the first tee

1. The course was in bad shape. Tee boxes were torn up/dead and the fairways were just weeds cut really low

2. The bunkers all had grass and weeds growing through them.

3. nobody was really there. Which tells me that this course is not good enough for anyone else either.

the greens were okay only because no one plays there (or hits the greens). Although I paid 15 dollars through golf now, it still wasn't worth it. spend the 25-35 somewhere else and actually enjoy yourself.

I played this course when it was private. It was in great shape. This time I couldn't believe the conditions. Greens were OK but fairways were burning out and being overgrown with crabgrass. Traps were very poor and being infested with crabgrass. Wait for good reviews before playing this course !!

Bunkers are overgrown, course is in bad condition. Don't waste your time with this course.

Harkers used to be a really nice private course but went public. Only issues I have: they don't water enough (at all?) during dry seasons so the greens and fairways get really burnt out and they let the greens grow longer making them really slow. Great value though, would not pay more than $40 to play there. Need to play here early and late in the season, Playing in July/August you run the risk of no grass in the fairways. Oh, and they stopped taking care of the traps, looks like they're letting them grow in with grass.

The course lay out is excellent, but it seems like there is no superintendence. The fairways are worse than any golf courses in this world, nobody taking care of the fairways. There are no sands in any of the bunkers, but all the bunkers are strategic place. The sad true about this golf course is simply no one taking care of it.

Great beginner course for the not so seasoned amateur. Fairways are a bit rough, but when you don't hit the fairway often it doesn't matter much anyway. Friendly staff, and met a legendary older gentleman named Mick. Would play this course again.

Nice layout greens were in very good condition..fairways need work and the rough must have been set up by the USGA for the US Open..the guy was "mowing" it as we played but was really just knocking it down

Very good potential, some holes with great views, but they need better management. Greens were just ok, lots of brown spots and a lot of pins were filled with disgusting green murky water..

Worst fairways I have ever seen. There was more dirt than grass on the fairways and was horrible to play.

It was also the first time I have ever seen groundskeepers using turkey basters to clear water off a tee box. I don't think they know what they're doing. I would not recommend this course to anyone.

Went out by myself and finished the round in under 2 hours on a Friday afternoon.
