About
Nestled in the hills of Scotts Mountain, Harkers Hollow Golf Club was carved from a sloping hillside, giving it a challenging terrain with plenty of elevation changes. Opened in 1929, the golf course has a classic layout designed by Robert White, the first president of the PGA of America. Although it is a seemingly mild 6,551 yards from the back tees, the course plays much longer and harder thanks to the undulating terrain. The layout does offer a few lengthy holes as well as some interesting par 3s. The greens are small and fast with breaks ranging from subtle to dramatic. There is hardly any water but the Lopatcong Creek does run the entire length of the golf course and requires the occasional carry. The par-3 fifth hole is the club's signature. It is particularly notable for its scenery, which is why it has served as the backdrop for many weddings.

Incredible value
Such a hidden gem of a course. Really solid challenge from the tips. Narrow, sloped fairways. Small, well-protected greens. So glad the new ownership revitalized this course. It's as good as it's ever been. Greens roll smooth and fairways are in great shape.
Only one concern
Started as a 4some and experienced our first delay at the 4th tee which continued thru the 18th hole getting longer delays from hole 4 thru 16. At the 12th, one group was on the green, another standing at the tee box, and two groups waiting at the tee. But, it was a good day, the course was fine and I’m looking to return and would encourage others to play here as well.
harkers hollow
very happy improving every year!was paired with 2 idiots playing blue tees who couldn't break 200 they were also late they didnt belong on the course !split up and played as a 2some!!!!!!4hrs 10 min
Huge improvements
This course has come long way in a few short years. Greens were fantastic. Cart paths and some traps need work but what a big improvement.
Fun and challenging
Very fun course withe great views. Holes 13,14,15 all play on a down hill slope which is challenging as it will roll forever. All in all you will have fun and enjoy the beautiful course.
good course
went out early so pace of play was not an issue. course was in decent condition, fairways were good and the rough was tough. greens were a little hard and you need to pay attention to the direction of the breaks.
Overall a great course for the money!
Great conditions, beautiful surroundings. Course is a bit wide open so keep your head on a swivel for those that like to play fairways other than their own. Tee boxes could use some attention, bent a few plastic tees trying to get them in the ground.
