The best public course in NJ hands down.

Go elsewhere.

Just recently played there after a little rainy morning. We thought it be a good time to go. No one will be on the course however, that was not the case. It took us four hours to get through 14 holes. There’s no Ranger to speed people off and make sure everyone’s doing the appropriate things. We saw the group in front of us have multiple balls, and the other group in front of them was walking and they were two holes behind everybody. So we just up and left. Also, there was so much sand on the greens. It was like I was putting in a bunker every single roll. My mom always, so Sandy it was so frustrating and not worth paying $75 to play this course at these conditions.

Excellent course. Elevated tee boxes, Very nice fairways, very fast greens. Roughs were pretty deep in some areas. Only issue is that we waited every hole for the group of 4 women ahead. Winded up finishing 25-30 mins behind pace.
