The people that work there were great especially the Ranger his name was Pat

First time we played the course ,was very pleasantly surprised what a nice courses it is ,it was in pretty good shape except for all the goose poop that’s not acceptable should do something about that greens an fairways very good bunkers needed a little help but not bad tee boxes ok pace of play on the front was so so .The Foursome in front of us very slow had many holes open in front of them . There is only two of us so on the ninth hole par three we skipped and went to the 10th and played the back in less than an 140 minutes .Then went back and played the ninth hole .Pat The Ranger which we ran into on the 12th hole was so nice and give us a lot of pointers to the cores because we’ve never played it thanks Pat you’re awesome I’ll definitely be back

Good course

Only bad thing was we had a foursome and rode with a great guy but complete stranger. When you share a cart you shouldn’t be charged for a full cart. But great day.

HHK

Sad to see piles of Debris/tpules of branches; tree cuts on the course at several holes and not any decorative accents…… lack of maintainable attention that for a few bucks would make this a go to course.

faults

Luckily all 18 holes were open. Flooding had almost shut down the back nine. One par 5 was [played as a par three due to flooding. Geese were quite a problem as typical of Bergen County courses.

Walked

slow pace unfriendly at times

Pace was slow because there were plenty of slow/beginner players on a hot day. I understand that this happens frequently on this course especially on weekends and holidays. But to have the ranger rush you constantly when it's backed up is absurd. We just end up rushing and waiting on the tee box 10+ minutes each hole.
