Rating 71.6

Quail Brook Golf Course in Somerset is one of central New Jersey's top public courses. The challenging design is a favorite amongst local golfers. The layout has a diverse mix of holes, some of which are spacious and wide-open and others that are rolling and tight. Although the golf course may seem short at 6,630 yards from the back tees, don't be fooled by the yardage. The course can feel much longer thanks to the hilly terrain. The front nine has subtler undulations while the back nine is dramatically hilly, which makes it a tough course to walk. Quail Brook Golf Course's undulating fairways lead to challenging sloped greens that are framed with strategically placed bunkers. There aren't too many opportunities for driving, but your short game will definitely get a workout.

Great service

In a prior around I had left my four iron in the rough on 18. I called and asked about it, and several hours later they called back and said the club had been brought in and would be held. A week later I picked it up and the club was tagged with my name and telephone number. Rain and thunderstorms were forecast for today, but I played anyway and did 18 holes in three hours. BTW, the driving range has grass like mats and is unbeatable.

Country club like

The great condition of the course, the mindset of the staff and the generally wonderful people who play their gives this course the feel of a country club. Even on the Juneteenth holiday my foursome finished the round in four hours. You can’t beat it.

All good except pace of play

Had a 3 some

. Caught a 4 some on 5. Did play the front in 2.10. Back was brutal just over 2.30. And one of our group bailed after 15.

Saw the group ahead , 2 men 2 women , occasionally hit a second ball. Witnessed long walks to the cart- Here’s a thought - maybe drive over . You have a cart !! Never ever looked back. Most inconsiderate group I have ever been behind

Course is in good shape. Back 9 has quite a different feel from the front. Some interesting holes
