About
Broadacres Golf Club is situated in southern Rockland County on the border between New York and New Jersey. Its convenient location allows for easy access from both states and it's only a 20-minute ride from midtown Manhattan. The golf course has nine holes with an alternate set of tees for an 18-hole round. The layout sprawls across rolling hills dappled with towering oak trees. The golf course incorporates a variety of elevation changes that range from subtle to dramatic. With narrow, tree-lined fairways and undulating greens, accuracy will serve you well on this course. You'll face several doglegs and there are strategically placed bunkers fiercely guarding the greens. Broadacres Golf Club's signature third hole is one of the toughest holes in the area. This par 3 plays up a steep hill to an undulating green.

Solid 9 Hole Course
This is a tight 9 hole course (that you play twice to get in your 18). Greens were great. Fairways were fine. Roughs had a lot of unintentional blotches. The oddest part of the course was venturing to the clubhouse. You park in a clearing of woods about a quarter mile away from course and almost walk through the first hole to get there.
Challenging.
I am a 8 handicap and have been addicted to mastering this challenging fun course. Really enjoy it! Greens fun slow and lots of breaks and grounds kept up very well. Very easy to fit a round in on this fast paced course.
Flat course
I haven't played this course in 10 years at least, and the course and clubhouse are in mediocre condition. It's nine hole course which doesn't bother me. The course is very flat but somehow it's still interesting to play. Don't overspend for a tee time here. Conditions of the greens is good not slick as you would imagine. Go play!!!
Nice course nice weather
I read the reviews and decided to give this course a try. It was a nice course but was quite surprised the pro shop was nothing more than a desk with a computer and a couple of shirts and hats on a folding table. The people were nice and somewhat welcoming drinking beer outside on the patio. The rough was very hard to find your ball. I took this into account and switched to playing with Srixon bright yellow balls to assist with finding my ball. The greens were slick and great to play. Well maintained. The bunkers were a little hard to get out of due to rain from the night before. The greens were well protected by bunkers. There was even a bunker in the middle of the fairway on a par 5. A cruel joke to play on players. The pace of play was fast first round of 9 holes. Met the rangers who was very nice to deal with as he directed my group. Then we got to the second go around and came up on a small group of two playing at pace of snails. The group in front of them were also playing at the pace of snails. Ranger stated he has never seen so many non golfers playing today. All in all will play this course again.
No Blue Hill
Its a charming nine-hole course thats not that challenging even to the average player. The staff can be weird. The pace was brutally slow the day i played.
No rangers, no cart girls.
Not bad
Overall a decent place. Course was in good shape. Not too challenging with no leaves on the trees yet. Pace was fine although it could always be quicker. Something about the guy behind the pro shop counter was off, but whatever.
Nasty Pro Shop
The Pro shop was extremely rude! They complained about golf now and I told them to take it up with them.
nice course
Nice course, nut the pace of play was brutally slow for the first 9. Played much faster second time around.
Nice 9 Hold Course
Heard through the grape vine about this course. Its in a odd spot being on the grounds of Rockland Physch Center but only the first and last holes have a view of the facillity. Forgiving somewhat but very good greens. I recommend it if you want to play 9 holes but beware their are quite a a few beginners in the afternoon.
Broadacres Golf Course
Course is very good shape. Greens are excellent !!
Without a golf now coupon the green fee's are expensive for anyone who doesn't live in the town.
Would play more often if fees were lower
Close to home, but not a fan
Tried to get out on Blue Hill golf course, but could not find a tee time all morning till early afternoon, got out quick on Broadacres.. at the 2hr 25 min mark, I was on hole 7 and just called it quits.. When golf is that slow, it takes the fun out of it. I don't mind new/young/bad golfers, but just get to your ball, and go. It only takes one or two groups, to make everyone else suffer, and just takes the enjoyment out of the day. The starter was a nice fellow, did not see one ranger.
Good layout, challenging
Course was in good shape, although some areas was hard pan . Very challenging for a nine. Would like to play there again.
First Time
Great staff. Didn't try food or beverage. Clean course. Easy to play. People behind us rushed us through, didn't like that
Rockland County's Hidden Gem
Hidden in a municipal complex just off the Palisades Parkway, you will find one heck of an interesting 9 hole golf course. Broadacres is a classically designed NY tree lined course.
Hole 3 is a daunting 230 yard uphill par 3 and hole 4 is a super long par 4, you will find that making par on either of these two holes feels more like a birdie. Fortunately, if you play 18, you can take two cracks at them, or if you prefer play 9 from the blues and 9 from the whites, you get a very different look at them. Hole 7 is another fun little hole, a nearly drivable par 4 that is reminiscent of Ridgewood country club's famous "nickel and dime" hole.
Overall, this course is a great track to walk or take beginners to. But it isn't an easy course. It is located on the border of Rockland and Bergen county NJ and is only about 30 mins from the George Washington Bridge. Definitely worth the drive from NYC, if your not looking for a course with a lot of amenities.
Greens were well maintained.
Course was in the middle of a old psychiatric hospital which was really weird, but the course was actually well maintained.
