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.

First Time Playing

Great value for the money.

This is my first time playing this course. I am a super senior and I was not overwhelmed by the difficulty of the course. It was very fair and laid out beautifully. The conditions were excellent and I will definitely play there again. The staff couldn’t have been friendlier. I told the starter this was my first time playing and he came out out of his booth and gave me a copy of the entire courses layout. Just a great experience.

First time this year

The course is in good shape. Greens were smooth

There are no water stations on the course

No opportunity to refill a water bottle which makes it difficult to stay hydrated - so be prepared on these hot days and bring plenty of water

Good course, well maintained, but the layout is not good for walking. There are 4 stretches the go down a steep hill, then under a road through a long tunnel and back up a steep incline on the other side. I walked over 8 miles. And the carts run rough (gas) and could use some TLC

Classy course

The staff could have trained for a 5 star hotel. I lost my 5 iron on the course a week ago. They had the club on hand tagged with my name. Very dependable.

My only concern is the golf carts -the gas peddles stick and cause the cart to lurch back and forth.

Nice course

Booked the Hot Deal on GolfNow, only $50 w/cart. Course was in great condition. Greens and fairways in great shape. Pace of play was good. Would be nice if they had a beverage/snack cart available, but no other complaints. They were running low on power carts, but we did get one 20 minutes prior to our tee time.
