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.

Love this course

This is one of my favorite courses. The only criticism I would have is the peace of play. I wish that someone would come out every once in a while to check the pace of play. Sometimes you get stuck waiting at every hole

Challenging course, very good conditioing

Course was in very good shape. Pace was excellent, even on a Saturday morning. Greens are tough and pretty quick. Course is walkable, although there are a few long green-to-tee walks. Tees and fairways were in good shape too.
