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.

Steady

A pleasant surprise for a March day. However it really doesn't matter because whatever time of year I play at spooky Brook the course is always in good condition and the employees are always very helpful.

Flooded

Played in rain..slight drizzle, probably less than quarter of an inch yet every fairway and every green was flooded. The course does not drain..it was impossible to put in the puddle of water. Maybe they should have closed the course..would not recommend this course when it’s raining or even afterwards.

Staff makes a difference

The best thing about this course is its staff working there. Friendly and eager, they get you out there as fast as they possibly can even if it’s not your reserved tee time.

Thank you for making it a pleasant and fun experience.

fun course with some good holes

the first time i played here last year didnt think much of it. guess because the day we played it was a 5 hour round. this time it was 37 degrees and only 8 other Eskimos out there. found the layout better this time around with some solid golf holes. worth the cost if you can get for $40 or less. somerset really needs to get a vendor to take on the courses for burgers and beers

Well maintained course

Spooky Brook is a very well maintained course. From tee to green, it was in great shape. The fairways are generally forgiving, The greens are mostly pretty large, and not difficult to read.

The layout is okay, but certainly not remarkable. You won't be wow'ed, but you'll be pleased with a very well kept course.
