Great Staff Rough Course

About what you’d expect from a public course around this time of year. In very rough shape but at $24 on a mid day hot deal I can’t complain. Everyone who works there is extremely friendly and helpful and they do a ton of stuff with kids which is great. And they have a driving range!

Nice course

Got a good price from Golf Now. Course is maintained well. The holes on the other side of the canal were a bit muddy from a recent storm. The starter said the were under water three days prior. Would play it again at a good price

Worst Golf Course in America

For a golf course calling itself a Country Club, this was an absolute joke. The fairways were ripped to shreds. 14-17 were cart path only and were basically underwater. 17 was utterly unplayable. Hot dogs from cart girl were ice cold. Not to mention there were these killer cicada hornets everywhere. They burrow underground and there were dirt mounds where they would nest. One of the holes they were so bad around the tee box we had to play from the blue tees. This course was so disappointing that they should’ve paid us to play it. For the price it was an absolute ripoff and I will never play there again.

Saturday golf

I overall like this course. Nice layout, greens slope in the front. The conditions in the back 4-5 holes are terrible. Very wet even when it hasn’t rained in a few days. A lot of sand in the fairways and lots of bugs. In the front 13 they have random hornet spots in different areas of the course/tee box. They have a great chef at the turn/19th hole. Highly suggest eating there.

Post Storm?

The back 9 were mostly unplayable. Why were 14, 15, 16 and 17 open? Not sure, but there was lots of water everywhere. Need new shoes.

Nice layout

Nice layout. Some holes a little beat up. But, greens were in good shape. Couple fairways a bit chewed up. You can see how this used to be a great course. Good bones. Tight fairways.

Very fun but short course. The course was in good shape and the greens were quick.

I look forward to one day playing it again.

Great day at PCC!

This was my first round at Princeton CC and while it was brutally hot out, we had a great time and were impressed with the course. The fairways and greens were in very nice shape and while the layout of the course is fairly basic, the mix of distances for the 18 holes was perfect. We will be going back for sure. Also, kudos to the staff, very nice folks
