Course in nice shape- bunkers are pathetic for the $
The course overall is in the best shape I've ever seen it and have played a million times over the years. The greens get beat up due to lots of play but were OK. The bunkers are offensively bad for the money they are charging now. For $160+ its really unacceptable to have bunkers basically with gravel in them. They redid 1 &18 and the rest are awful. Seems like they are filling in a lot of them with grass but seems pretty silly for a course of this caliber and cost to not have bunkers, with sand?
Oh Crystal👍
If it’s your first time playing at any of the golf courses at Crystal Springs you’re in for a treat, but Crystal is a phenomenal course the crystal Springs front nine and the back nine classic is amazing. Wonderful challenge for all levels. Beginners might have a bit of trouble due to the undulation of greens and the fairways and lengthy carries.🍀
Stephen at the pro shop is absolutely amazing. The staff is phenomenal the girls in the carts just wonderful 🙏
conditions of the golf course were phenomenal greens are in wonderful shape running quick and true only issue. Bunkers were a little mush, but that’s understandable due to the severe amounts of rain that we’ve been experiencing up here in Sussex County area, no wet spots on the golf course at all. Thanks again very much look forward to playing the course once again thank you so much. Keep up the good work. 🇺🇸☘️🙏👍
Horrible conditions
I haven’t played here in 3 years. The course is in horrendous condition. I contacted them to complain and they didn’t even respond. Avoid this.
enjoyed it
9 hole course, pretty straightforward layout which worked for me and my 12 year old son. beautiful scenery as you'd expect at crystal springs. better players will likely find this course pretty easy.
negatives were aerated greens and rock hard sand traps, but we had just gotten hammered by a big storm two days earlier so i'll give them a pass.
the tavern was great for a meal afterward. overall, definitely enjoyed it and will be back.
Best birthday round
We got the golf and beer rate. The course was great and the food and beer were top notch. Very friendly staff. Excellent day.
Great first experience
Just a shoutout to black bear the staff was very friendly and the course was in great condition. Thanks for a great afternoon
Best TEC in Jersey
Course is in good shape, they recently had lots of rain, so they were redoing a lot of the sand traps, but the rest of the course was good. The pace of play moves right along and the layout is great with very few blind shots. What makes this place is Rachel at the halfway house. She makes the best Taylor ham, egg, and cheese (TEC) sandwich in New Jersey. The TEC is unbelievable.
