Shot Makers

My wife wanted to play it for her birthday. The course was packed, but we played in just 4 hours, moved very quickly. The staff was excellent, very friendly and informative. The course conditions were excellent. The course isn't real long, so you don't try to overpower it, shot maker's course. Will play again.

Great Value- Great conditions

Played on Memorial day morning, had first tee time and was paired with 2 other singles. Have not played here in aprrox 8 years and staff told me I would not recognize it- they were right! Course is in excellent condition and a good challenge for what would be considered a "short course"

Painful

Course is in good shape and fun layout.4 some in front was painfully slow hitting two, three tee balls. Standing in groups watching each shot, all on a Saturday and the ranger just strolled by. Too painful to return......

The work they've done has paid off

The last time I played there was a couple years back and the entire course has been upgraded since. On a huge golf Memorial Day weekend they had the best prices and the pace of play was great. We teed off at the right time and were not stuck waiting on any tee boxes. Challenging course with tight fairways and fast greens. Will definitely go back

Pleasantly surprised

Princeton C. C. Is a gem tucked away from the busy Route 1. The layout is not run of the mill with some wide open fairways and more then a few that will make you pay the price if you slice or hook. Looking foward to playing it again.

good round

The staff was excellent very friendly and helpful. The course was in great condition. The on l y downfall was the greens were covered with debris due to the wind and time of year. Once the trees finish unloading flowers and pollen it will be perfect.

Golf course needs better maintenance

Greens are not in good shape.
There are a lot of divots on the fairway.
Bunkers are not raked.
The course needs better maintenance.
Overall it is good to play for the price.

Course improved a lot better than last year.

It was 39 degrees cold. So cold, but course was not frozen. Facilities are improved a lot better than last year. Real enjoyable course even open all winter. Food was unavailable at all even hot coffee or tea. Finished 18 hole in 3 hours. Golfnow made very cheap green fee with cart. Everything was all right except green condition. Still hole 13 through 17 are very wet. I drove 1 hour 10 minutes to play there, but still it is really recommendable winter course.

Was hoping for more

Course was in good shape for playing in November. Pace of play was bad. There was no one pushing people along. We had to skip a hole to get past a slow group drinking a bottle of wine in front of us. It obviously didn't come from the clubhouse. Hot dog at the halfway house was embarrassing. Greens were in good shape and they were fast. Fairways were good and there was a a lack of fallen leaves on the ground so that means grounds keeping is doing their job. Just gotta work on F&B and pace of play

great value

I have played this course a half of dozen times. Well maintained and somewhat challenging, I usually play as two on the occasion of adding a third. I have yet to go out at my scheduled tee time due to heavy traffic on the course. Every time players have been added to my group whether they were walking or riding which for the most part does not bother me except for the skill level of the added player has often slowed the pace of play. That being said, I will continue to play this course, but perhaps at a later time in the day.

Very enjoyable round

Clubhouse staff was outstanding. Was playing as a single with a 8:10am tee time. The starter got me out with the first group. Played the round in three hours! Course was in nice shape. This place will be in my rotation from now on.
