Harkers Hollow Golf Club

Mostly all the greens were in bad shape-also water not filled in the ball washers and no drinking water out on the course. No place to eat or drink after the round.

First off I am an avid NJ golfer from the area. Harkers has had a woeful past 5 years, to say it went downhill is an understatement.

10 years ago Harkers Hollow was an absolutely amazing, professionally maintained gold course.

3 years ago Harkers was in OK condition. Nothing to write about but playable.

This year(April 2013) the course has officially hit rock bottom and is unplayable. Please save your money. The greens are beyond repairable. The course needs to be shut down and reseeded if it is going to stay open this summer. There is no way to fix this course without shutting it down.

Also, they should call it HACKERS HOLLOW because you will get stuck behind people who have NO idea how to golf or maintain a pace. If we had not cut in front of them, the round would have took 6+ hours judging by where they were when we left.

The owner also owns Apple Mountain so it's no surprise this course is in disarray. Nothing is maintained, the course is a complete mess and a joke. The guy is too cheap to fix it up. The name and reputation is officially ruined. I would stay far away from Harkers and Apple unless the price goes down to about $15-20 for 18 and a cart...

If you're from the area, drive a good 25-45 minutes and go elsewhere. PA has great inexpensive golf courses, and out of warren county you have a lot of options.

Lastly, it is important not to support businesses like this because it will never get better. If you do not golf there, maybe the owner will get a hint and put some money into. The place could be a VERY good golf course with money and labor! Otherwise, STAY FAR AWAY PLEASE!

Sad, gone to ruin, greens are brown and bare! Par 3 course looks better. Have removed ALL of the heritage.... Scharre Run ruined, no more benches, dedicated stones overgrown, driving range looks sad. No wonder they went into bankruptcy

Thank goodness the course turned public and gave me a chance to be an "unofficial" member of Harkers Hollow. Great, older course with excellent features that was built in 1923 and still has the charm of the good, old days! Getting back to it's original shape with tight fairways and really fast greens. A must play!

The fairways were fine but the greens and tee boxes were awful. The greens had dirt patchs and weeds. Putting on them was ridiculous. On the tee boxes it was hard to find a level area to hit from. Again, a lot of dirt patches and depressions.

This was, without a doubt the worst conditioned golf course I've ever played in my life. Most greens had giant bare spots. Most fairways and all tees were just crabgrass. Even the hot deal price is wayyyyyy too much for this dump. Go play in a pasture instead.

The course has a fun layout, the conditions are the worst i've seen yet. To play this course for $30 is an insult with what you get.

Tee boxes were "manicured" crabgrass.
Large sections of several greens were bare.
Patchy turf conditions in fairways.
Poor conditions in sand bunkers.
Layout was boring and uninspired.

Nice layout bur fairways are dotted with bare spots and greens are just terrible.

Course could be ok if the doubled the size of all the greens and totally rebuilt them as the elevation changes make it an interesting layout. However the greens are totally destroyed (25% of any given green is just dirt and the rest is spotty at best) and the fairways aren't much better. When I went they also hadn't cleared out the falling leaves so you spent 5 minutes looking for your ball even if it was in the middle of the fairway as the leaves hide everything. Course needs a LOT of work. The turf range is the one big plus

I remember driving by this course years ago when it was private and marveling its pristine condition. Now after bankruptcy and becoming a public course it is only a shell of its previous shape. Nothing to recommend other than its inexpensive and the views are wonderful.

Great potential and terrific layout! I was disapointed in the conditions of the fairway, tees and greens; it requires a great deal of repair TLC!

Poorly conditioned...poor greens,... diseased...denuding tee areas and boxes....no water on the course for drinking....sand bunkers more like a macadam base with a thin sand cover..listed Pro...Dachisen... retired...and no information on the present pro...... never again, and I mean never!

I enjoy playing older courses. However, I am aware that HH had been experiencing difficult economic times. This year it is under new ownership. Golfers can see that efforts are being made to restore the course to it's former conditions. Yet, this may take another year. I will not return until 2013.

This course is Garbage, pure and utter garbage. Feels like your hitting a ball in someone's unkempt backyard. Crabgrass, crabgrass, and more crabgrass. Two thumbs down to the staff and greens-keeper. The only redeeming quality was the food at the bar.

We booked a time thru Golf Now based on having played this course during our very mild winter. At the time the course was being "worked on" for the upcoming golf season. Well, hopefully they close the course now and work on it for next year. Every green had (what the asst. pro told us) a fungus growing on it. Many fairways and sand traps without fungus issues also need attention. The course layout is very interesting with many challenging shots. You would probably use all the clubs in your bag at some point. It has great possibilities and I, for one, would like to see someone repair this course to make it enjoyable to play. We booked for $39 (inexpensive) and when we got to the course, they only charges us $29. Thanks ! Still cannot recommend.
