Rating 70.8

Green Knoll Golf Course in Bridgewater Township has a varied terrain that provides a unique character to the course. The course sprawls across gently rolling hills dappled with mature trees. Much of the course's challenges are a result of the tricky contours. Some of the elevation changes are dramatic but there are also some subtle ones, which can be just as tricky. Further accuracy is required to maneuver the tight fairways. There are definitely challenges in store throughout but overall the golf course's playability appeals to all skill levels, from novices to avid golfers. It measures a manageable 6,443 yards from the back tees. In addition to the 18-hole course, there is also a nine-hole pitch-and-putt course. Green Knoll is one of five golf courses operated by the Somerset County Park Commission.

Greens

Greens were aerated and poorly dressed. Putting was horrible for $65 so left after 5 holes!! These courses should advertise when greens are freshly aerated so a golfer has the choice to book or not book!! Or at the very least offer a simple discount to a golfer for putting on crappy greens !

Fun course, except for hole 5

Great wide open, forgiving course. Only issue I would say are the clowns that live near hole 5 that blast air horns when you tee off.

Neat layout

I really enjoy the layout of the course. The greens were rolling well for the time of year and the fairways were not bad considering it had snowed 4 days earlier when I played.
