Course Highlights
Spooky Brook's large, well-maintained greens and walker-friendly layout consistently impress golfers seeking great value at a public course. The back nine delivers a notably more challenging and scenic experience that keeps players coming back.

Spooky Brook Golf Course in Somerset is a player-friendly course that is perfect for beginners. It offers just enough of a challenge but it still allows you some room for error. At 6,655 yards from the back tees, the golf course is relatively short but the greens, tees, and fairways offer plenty of room. The mostly flat terrain makes for an enjoyable walk and it's also wide open. While the golf course may not be the most formidable test, it does have a few challenges in store. Water has a presence throughout the course, especially on the back nine. Whether or not you are looking to hone your skills or if you want a casual round, the well maintained golf course appeals to any skill level. In addition to the course, Spooky Brook G.C. also has a driving range that you can use to warm-up.

First timer

Had an excellent experience. Played with three strangers and by the end of four hours, we were good friends. I am a senior golfer and the course was forgiving enough for me to have a great time. So much so I’m going back next Tuesday again. Enjoyed my self immensely. I highly recommend this golf course.

Even in 40°F weather, had a blast

2nd time out this year. Weather could've been better but after a long cold winter people were out to play. Course was surprisingly dry after all the rain recently. Got paired with a single who was a pleasure to play with. Ranger was very friendly and sent groups out accordingly. Pretty full course even in the frigid temps but pace of play wasn't bad. I do enjoy the Somerset courses

Fix you ball marks people!

Course was in great condition except for each green had 10-15 ball marks. My self and group members would repair 3-4 each green.
