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

Very Nice Course!

Walked 18 with two friends starting on-time at 2:40. Course conditions were excellent! Pace of play was very good. Tee boxes and greens were in very nice shape. No food/drink cart on course. Wouldn't walk 18 again (too much distance between holes. Will definitely play here again...with a cart.

Junior PGA EVENT

Monday had a Junior PGA Event. This course was in prestige condition. Fairways, greens are almost to perfection. Those sand bunkers were fluffy and very easy to get out of.

We sure had a great time.

First Time Playing

Most holes had a rise in the fairway obstructing your ability to see the group ahead when teeing off. Also long cart drives between holes. Course was challenging With bunker placement, though, and well-maintained.

First Time Playing

Immaculate greens

First time playing here and I was super impressed with the greens. They’re not fast but they are very smooth and have some challenging slopes and undulations. Excellent warmup facilities featuring a full size driving range and a practice sand bunker. Pace of play slowed dramatically on the back nine but was okay overall. Played from the blue tees and all par fours were easily reachable in two except the 420 yard 18th.

Wanted 2 with mustard and BBQ onions

Hot Sunday (95 & sunny), played the round in 4 hours. Maybe it was too hot for most normal people to play golf. Course was in great shape, fairways and greens as they should be.

Only down side was the Sabrett truck an out of hot dogs af the turn, only had 1 dirty water dog with mustard and BBQ onions. Probably shouldn't have inhaled the dog, but was pretty hungry.
