Crystal Springs Resort

I really enjoy Wild Turkey however there was no starter no ranger and groups just went a tee off The group in front of us I believe were supposed to tee off after us .

The value at $43 via a GolfNow Hot Deal was pretty good. , but the staff yelled at my foursome from on top of the hill to get off of the course. The started did not mention it and we did not appreciate the aggressiveness of the staff in yelling at us. With that said, this is a typical course that runs through many backyards and avoiding houses will be a challenge for the errant golfer. The moguls on both sides are more like large hills that turned into a game of where's waldo? when looking for balls. Decent course, very fun par 3 on back 9, but cart path-only made this an endurance test and greatly reduced the experience. Will not be back.

We got a Friday tee time at 11:30am for $33 per golfer. Can’t beat that price. But the pace of play was extremely slow.

This course is also a course for children’s golf and foot golf. So not only are there two pins on every green, but the fairways and rough are littered with giant holes and flags for foot golf.

Course is in good condition but it took over 5 hours to play the nine twice because of how backed up everything was between the regular golfers and the families playing “foot golf”.

Overall, this was a fun day. Crystal Springs requires your game to be sharp as it is tight and played long in the cold, fall air. Have to be on right tier in greens too.

I booked it on golf now. The course was dry as a bone. Except for the first par five which one portion of it seemed like it was pretty soggy. There was no reason for it to be cartpath only for the entire round. Literally one hole was all that was needed. It’s slowed everything down. 2 1/2 hours for nine holes. Really disappointed.

I played in2 hours and 20 minutes, great conditions including greens, friendly staff.

Wild Turkey is a well maintained very playable course. Pace of play was 4.15 pushing up against dark. Started worked well to accommodate everyone. Greens, fairways and tee boxes were in great shape even in November. The course in fairly wide open and leaves room for some miss hits. Greens roll true. Had a very fun afternoon. Thanks to GolfNow perks we all played for free!

You have to hit your spots on this relatively tight and tricky layout. Lots of out of bounds and skinny fairways make this a shot makers golf course. A good test of your abilities.

Good value, 18 holes with cart for $26. Played in 3 hours. Good course for Average Golfers, not for beginners or Kids learning the game. Elevations make a poor walking course. They should build some bridges for more direct access to greens after hitting your approach shots. Greens are undulating, so very quick on the wrong side of a putt or chip.

We got a hot deal and played this course for $55. Really challenging course but beautiful and very interesting.

I have played Crystal Springs many times. For all the headaches it causes you because of its difficulty, it's still fun to play. The conditions were great, greens were perfectly smooth and fairly quick. I always recommend it, but remember that you'll very likely shoot higher than you do elsewhere.

With all that said, this day felt like a money grab. $70 is too much for Crystal Springs. Tee times are packed 10 minutes apart which hurts pace of play. Many of the tees were way up so the course was not playing it's true yardage. On some holes the tips, blue and white tees were all grouped together. Just an absolute joke of a course setup. Felt like it was silly season out there, except with premium pricing.

No ball washers or water coolers and they still had the stupid metal piece in the holes. Aren't we over this by now? Nobody is getting the virus from touching a flag stick, hole, ball washer or water cooler that sit exposed to UV rays all day long.

If you're going to reduce amenities and not make it feel normal, you can't be charging a premium. The prices NJ courses are charging for a round of golf this year are absurd. I haven't played many of my favorites because of this and I won't be back to Crystal/Wild Turkey/Ballyowen until they bring their pricing back down to a reasonable level.

A beautiful November day but three hours to play the front nine and we had 4.30 minutes of daylight when we teed off and only got in 14 holes. Not a ranger seen all day... It is hard with leaves down to find balls but they said they were full from 6.30 pm on and so why are there no rangers on the course to help move people along.. Some blind tee shots saw the group behind us hit right into us on several occasions. Great course but disappoint day

rounds should not take 5 hours; especially with the shorter days and high prices
