Nice course

Friendly course with very little elevation change and with open fairways so it's easier to find your ball. Restaurant was very good with very friendly staff.

Good conditions and price.

There’s been a lot of rain recently in the North Jersey area. I was expecting a pretty wet round but there were only a few spots where it seemed wet. 4 hour 15 minute round on a Sunday, can’t complain about that!

Extra fee for riding alone?

I play this course at least once a week, and I’ve been playing here well over a decade. This was my first time out this season, and I have NEVER in my life, been asked to pay an extra $18 to ride alone. I was a single playing with 3 strangers (a grandfather, son, and grandson) and the starter told me to double up with the grandfather or I had to pay for the extra seat. Not to mention, the course was cart path only, I could have maybe understood they don’t want 3-4 carts on the fairways at once, but what difference does it make if they’re all on the path anyway. In total I paid $98 to play a course that was in $50 condition. Overall scumbag move from a place I love to play.
