Good value for 50 bucks

I am a newer golfer, and enjoyed the course. They let us just play as a pair. Felt like it was a good test for someone who shoots in the 90s

Course staff

Where do we start!? If you have to deal with the course director, good luck. His Napolean complex let’s his attitude overstep. The clubhouse staff is rude. Rangers on the course are really nice and funny. If I were you, play any other course around, the amount you pay here not worth it. Try Paramus golf club, may spend a little more but much better condition.

Windy weather
Used cart

Early season round...

Course played well, the greens and tee-boxes in good shape for the beginning of the season.
The rough was cut very low and ground hard so the ball rolled out.
The greens were surprisingly fast.

typical bergen county course

Nice long course. good greens, fairways trimmed and roughs were easy to find errant shots. Typical of Bergen courses...waited nearly all holes. Very few hazards. Only 1 water hole. I would return.

Comfortable but long challenging course

Nice Course, greens are in good condition for this time of the year. It is wide, open but pretty long Course, that's the challenge. A reasonable driving distance, along with a great long or hybrid striking is required, otherwise, you'll be playing a strong bogey...

Tough to score

A Very good long, flat and demanding course. Need a good drive in every hole, playing from the back. To bad for me the green were just aeration. Have to come back.

rude staff. no rain check

i’ve played here many times over the years. Played today and in fairness the course was in pretty good condition. 4 1/2 holes in, we got torrential rain that left massive puddles and flooding on the fairways and greens. This course does not drain well and became unplayable. We waited for him a while and then drove in in the rain. The whole course was heading to the clubhouse. When I got there and ask for a rain check, the staff was incredibly rude and just barked “no rain checks no rain checks no rain checks for anyone “. it turns out they do have a handprinted sign at the check-in desk that says no refunds once your round starts. The course was unplayable. The rain was continuing. There was lightning in the area. But “no rain checks no rain checks no rain checks“ no empathy no apology just rudely barking “no rain checks“ over and over and over and over. If this review is annoying to you imagine how it felt to all the golfers. Be aware this course does not believe in player/customer service. I will not be going back and I do not recommend this course to anybody. There are too many other great options in the region.

I truly do not like to write bad reviews. These guys deserved it. They could’ve handled this better with just even the little bit of effort. But they did not try at all.

also course does not drain well. It does not handle water well. So be aware before you play. Check your weather conditions carefully and frankly, you’re better off booking elsewhere

Nice round to start the weekend

This is a favorite of mine, as a NYC resident a bit tough to get tee times. So a 7:40, 24 hours in advance and nabbed a twosome. Starter got us out at 7:35, pace of play was great, done in just under 4 hours. Course conditions were excellent for a Bergen County Course, especially the greens. My only issue was there was no food or beverage and water put out at only 5-6 of the tee boxes. Otherwise, a fun solid round, will definitely be back!

Pretty standard county course

Definitely good bang for buck, I paid $50 and got a cart. That being said, most people are walking so the pace definitely feels a bit slow which can be frustrating
