Galloping Hill Golf Course

Course is great, layout is top notch but due to rain night before they closed the back 9. They had players play the learning center and still charged full rate. That’s a joke to me and very poor customer service. They don’t care cause they print money, such is life.

Played after a bit of rain, back 9 was closed so they added the practice facility to my booking in exchange to make my round 18. No discount offered, so unfortunate I didn’t get to play the whole course. Some greens weren’t playing well, but good conditions generally. Pace was slow only because we had an older ground in front and it was cart path only.

I booked this course looking for a good test of golf, 6850 yards, 138 slope. Haven't played this in 34 years so I booked it instead of Neshanic or Heron. What I got was maybe 6200 (that is being generous) yards AND sanded green which no one of course mentions until you see for yourself on the first green. I should say on the first TAN, nothing green about them today.

Then on the 2nd tee box I realize the back tees are not set up and it looked like they never are (WHICH IS INEXCUSABLE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!). The tees were way up. sometimes two or more boxes forward, I didn't pay $84 dollars to flip wedges into sanded TANS (greens). And there is nothing quite like putting on wet sanded greens all morning, did I mention I paid $84?

I rated the value today as poor but that is as low as I could go, a few words come to mind but I will refrain. I get this needs to be done but can someone say something before hand? GIVE ME AN OPTION TO PLAY? It's a shame because under all the sand the greens looked great and it's a pretty cool layout. Tee boxes and fairways were nice and the rough was lush. Drainage is an issue on the lower holes.

The pace of play was great, the carts are awesome and I played with three very nice gentlemen who are regulars. They were outraged that they changed me what they did. All in all it should have been a great day, even birdied the first hole, and it was dreadful. I should have turned around on the 2nd tee box and got my money back.

Been a few years since I've played the hill and I thought it was in really good shape. It's a tough walk, but greens are close to next tee except for 11 tto 12. Pace was kinda slow. Group in front had an entire hole open in front of them. How could you not know you're not holding up the entire course!?!?! PSA be mindful of your pace and keep up with the group ahead!

Had a great time playing! Pace of play was slightly slow.

Played it on a super warm day. Not a course to walk in general, but regretted it especially. My watch measured over 700 feet of elevation change throughout the round.

Greens rolled fast and true.

Only downside is my buddy’s cart GPS didn’t work on that day. Otherwise excellent experience.

Definitely will be back.

Just recently played there after a little rainy morning. We thought it be a good time to go. No one will be on the course however, that was not the case. It took us four hours to get through 14 holes. There’s no Ranger to speed people off and make sure everyone’s doing the appropriate things. We saw the group in front of us have multiple balls, and the other group in front of them was walking and they were two holes behind everybody. So we just up and left. Also, there was so much sand on the greens. It was like I was putting in a bunker every single roll. My mom always, so Sandy it was so frustrating and not worth paying $75 to play this course at these conditions.

Excellent course. Elevated tee boxes, Very nice fairways, very fast greens. Roughs were pretty deep in some areas. Only issue is that we waited every hole for the group of 4 women ahead. Winded up finishing 25-30 mins behind pace.

Just wish I was able to get a tee time more often on this course. Being a 7 day card holder I’m never able to get tee times. That’s my only complaint. Otherwise it’s a great course
