Short but tight

Very nice course. It’s tight and tree lined but short. Greens and fairways in good shape. 15 and 17 are a little water logged but overall the course in fun to play. Will return

Could be better

Decent layout though kind of boring. Back nine was sloppy wet, especially 17. Lot of fall leaves hindered finding errant balls.

Solid Course

Not sure why Princeton Country Club (PCC) is receiving such poor reviews. Just played there for the first time and it was very manageable. People are saying tight/narrow fairways but there is A LOT of room to make the fairway - maybe just work on your shot? Pace of play was fine, it’s golf. Yes there is work being done to some holes but easily playable. Loved the openness of the course and scenery. Honestly not the most difficult if your looking for a challenge but a solid option none the less. Thanks PCC!

Always on the verge

After a year, Princeton hasn't changed. Tight, very small greens, slanted back to front, traps on both sides at the bottoms. Plenty of trees to narrow the fairways. I had three short chips severely downhill just off the fringe that even good shots could not stop tap-in close. The greens were aerated and 6-10 footers were too tough

Pace of play awful

The only reason I didn't give this course a five star rating was the pace of play. It was easily the worst I've ever seen from a group ahead. It was a foursome of seniors who were taking their leisurely time and refusing to allow groups to play through. There was no ranger at all out on the course, which seems to be a recurring theme here, and it got so bad that they had a line of three groups behind them waiting to tee off. We seriously considered calling the clubhouse and asking for a ranger to come out. Eventually we skipped 16 just to get ahead of them. The course really needs to improve the presence of rangers and monitor pace of play better.
