concert on the greens

If you like loud stereo music and conversations while playing then this is the course for you. Just not for me anymore.

This course has a very relaxed atmosphere, great staff, reasonable greens fees, is easy to walk, and the greens are in great shape. It tends to attract a lot of beginners, though, likely due to the price point, so watch out for errant shots. If you're looking for a 5 star country club experience, then this course isn't for you. But, if you're looking to have an affordable, low stress practice round, then this place is hard to beat in northern NJ.

Cramped and Poorly Designed

Just an insanely cramped course. Especially coming around the back end we needed to wait 20 minutes a hole to tee off, including because of people in our fairway (that is shared with another hole). For this price there are better courses to play – galloping, ash, spooky. It's just not that fun unless you're messing around.

Very slow

I'm not sure if they overbooked, or if it was just a matter of everyone coming out on the first really beautiful weekend day of the season, but it was almost unbearably slow.

It's a fun little course, with a lot of character. It can get dangerous out there because the fairways all cross each other.

9 hole course

The CC maintains their greens. Fairways are maintained. Sure, there's a few rough patches, but for the price and atmosphere, what more do you want? Staff is super friendly and if you golf there enough they're willing to work with you on groupings etc.

Bad Shape

Early in the season so can only go up from here. Course is in pretty bad shape. Each tee box has mats laid out. Lots of bare spots and flooded areas. Holes are close together so hard kind of hard to navigate and balls are all over the place. (Mind your heads) Pretty cheap to play for a quick nine but would recommend elsewhere for same cost. Club house is nicely set up clean and lots of merch avail.
