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.

Good for time of year

Considering how bad the weather had been leading up to the courses opening, I thought Quail Brook was in exceptionally good shape. Greens were tough to get a read on...some real fast...some real slow. Fairways and rough were in good shape though. Course is clearly well taken care of. Not an overly difficult course....pretty flat. Good course to work on your game with. Definitely worth it for the price I got through Golfnow.

Suburban Course, good value

I play this course 1-3x a week. Its a good value through golfnow.
The layout is challenging enough for me (17 handicap) and the greens are pretty true.

Nothing spectacular from a "views of nature" perspective but that there are many trees between holes makes each hole feel secluded. (and also makes me choose other courses in the fall since there are leaves everywhere).

There are yardage markers on every sprinkler head, and the tee boxes are pretty accurate. It's not architects, neshanic, or a crystal springs course, but its a quality course that I will play again.
