Overpriced

You can’t charge someone 70 dollars when your tee boxes are as terrible as they were. I understand it’s September but drop your price then. Ridiculous to even think that’s a fair price point.

In need of maintenance

I accept burnt out fairways from drought, but no yardage markers is not drought related. How hard is it to put in a few colored stakes to show 100, 150 and 200 yards from the green. Even the marks on the cart path were illegible. Also no one fixes ball marks anymore. Finally how about a ranger to enforce pace of play.

First Time Playing

I have passed the course on the NJ Turnpike countless times and always made a note that I should play it. What I heard was that it was always on n poor shape.

The course definitely needs work. The dry spring and summer have it burned out in n numerous places and crabgrass around the greens and aprons needs maintenance. That being said, the layout is terrific. It has so much potential to be a terrific course.

The staff, at least those I met, were courteous and professional. The greens rolled true and we’re a good speed.

The property it is on is beautiful.

I hope it keeps getting some serious TLC. Seeding som of the bare areas is a must, but I will definitely play here again

Tamarack West

The average rating was due to the drought conditions and nit much the course could actually do. It was dry and hard, with some wicked bounces....But expected given the hot dry weather lately.....The ONLKY issue would be the pace of play, and lack of any rangers pushing the pace to increase. Watching from the tee box as someone on the rough takes 6-7 practice swings, then hits it 2 feet is a bit much. Or watching someone 6 putt on the green........They just need someone to enforce a better pace of play......Stop worrying about cooler enforcement and more about pace of play enforcement........Letting someone bring their own water or gatorade is NOT a crime......You make enough money off the golfers........Otherwise it was a nice time.......

Fairway dried out

The fairaways and rough are dried up and hitting most of the time in hard dirt. Greens are good but paying full price for out of county is not near worth it.
