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.

Pristine Conditions.

First time playing Quail Brook. One of the the best courses I’ve played this year. Friendly staff and course conditions are perfect from the tee boxes to the fairways to the greens.

Can’t wait to play here again

Not a level playing field

Quail Brook is an often lauded member of the somerset county golf course system. Like the others, it’s always in great shape. What sets it apart from its closest neighbor, Spooky Brook, is its seemingly lack of a level playing surface. From its collection of angled fairways to its undulating greens one leg always feels longer than the other. This with its lightening fast putting surfaces makes for an interesting and challenging round of golf. For golfers who like a course with a bite, Quail Brook is a great place to play. Enjoy !!!

QB 10/4/24

The groups in front of us were extremely slow, even though some groups were 2 players.

We could not finish our round and could play only 13 holes.

We started at 2:35pm and generally take 4 hrs to complete a round.

But the groups in front of us forced us to wait for long periods on every hole.
