About Crystal Springs Resort

Crystal Springs Resort is a 4,000-acre playground located only an hour across the New Jersey state line from New York City. It is one of the country’s largest golf resorts with six courses - Ballyowen, Black Bear, Cascades, Crystal Springs, Minerals and Wild Turkey – and three driving ranges. The Grand Cascades Lodge houses 220 guest rooms with an inspired welcome: An outdoor putting course leading to an indoor lobby with high ceilings, wood beams and a stone fireplace. Both it and the 175-room Minerals Hotel feature their own spas and pools. Children will love the Biosphere, an indoor pool complex with an aquarium, vortex pool and caves, 140-foot waterslide and café, all in a tropical theme. Twelve restaurants are spread out among the course clubhouses and hotels, delivering a variety of menus and price points. Between the Mineral Sports Club and Adventure Center, there’s always a new activity or program to enjoy.

There's plenty of great golf waiting for guests on Crystal Springs Golf Resort's seven courses, like the seventh hole at Wild Turkey Golf Club. Jason Scott Deegan/TravelGolf

Fun 9 hole SLOW WET GREENS.

Fun nine hole good layout, depending upon who’s in front of you you can play the whole course in an hour and a half to two hours. Playing in the fall early. The greens are really really wet and extremely slow. The fairways are in great shape the tea boxes are more dirt and debit than grass.

$60 bucks for 9

$60 bucks for a nine hole course is crazy. Went because a friend wanted to go. But really $60 bucks. Can play Great Gorge for an extra $20 bucks and play 18.
