About Mountain Creek Resort

Mountain Creek Resort is a four-season destination in Vernon, N.J., just an hour outside of New York City. It features a waterpark; the 27-hole Great Gorge course, which was purchased in 2018; the Treescape Aerial Adventure Park, home to zip-lining, climbing obstacles and rope walks; and a Bike Park of 52 trails that is loaded with jumps and 1,000 feet of vertical drop. The course was part of the old Playboy Club in the 1970s and 1980s, attracting famous names such as Dean Martin and Bob Hope for a game. It’s a beautiful property with wonderful mountain views and elevation changes. Guests can stay in the Appalachian hotel or enjoy more space and privacy in a one- to three-bedroom townhome rental at Black Creek Sanctuary. Both accommodations offer outdoor pool and hot tub facilities.

I’m not really motivated to share because I like the course and the experience every time I go. The more people that come the slower the rounds go lol.

Good staff and great golf.

Nor’Easter

Course was great as usual. The fact they didn’t close during a Nor’Easter and crazy rain and winds was nuts. Practically forced to play in that weather because GoflNow wouldn’t give me credit or rain check unless the golf course itself closed. It was an experience to say the least.

Great day to Golf!

We golf annually at the Gorge, same time each year. I usually golf with a total of 11-12

We all had a great day, and the weather started off cool but warmed up as we golfed.

I highly recommend this course for its value and breath-taking views.

Thanks to the great Staff.

Tough greens

While the course is in fairly good condition, their cart path can use much repair....be prepared to be bumped around 😁

Pretty open & wide fairways but pretty challenging greens! Fairways don't roll much, I think they needed to mow the grass down more. Overall good experience for the price paid.
