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.

Bad overgrowth

Most of the holes are lined with rough and then overgrown grass areas, and grass areas are located in too many places alongside greens and elsewhere on the golf course. This growth is typically between shin-high and knee-high and is underlined with poison ivy. There is also a threat of deer ticks. Finding a ball in theseAreas is nearly impossible and very slow causing much delay in a round of golf.

Solid

First time playing QB in a couple of years.

Will be back. Course is in good shape.

Our 3 some was behind a slow 4 some so the pace of play could have been better.

The back was extremely slow,

Thursday afternoon league pace killer

Played on Thursday afternoon and unfortunately was behind a golf league. 3 hours front 9, but cruised through the back. Don’t book Thursday late.

Unmowed grass

The deep grass areas that have not been mowed are too prevalent on the course. They generate many bugs and also loss of many golf balls. The rough alongside fairways is also boardered by deep grass that also gobbles up golf balls. This is way overdone on Quail Brook.
