You get what you pay for
Booked on golf now for $35 including cart. Problem with this course is that it seemed the fairways and greens had not been cut in many days. The fairway grass length was like the first cut and the greens felt more like what a fairway length should be. It was disappointing because I played on a Monday and it did not rain over the weekend so there was not a great excuse. Also many, many tee boxes are badly ripped up. Price and pace were fine but probably not a repeat visit for me.
It was OK
Round was a little slower than expected (5+ hours) and I am not sure why. The people in front of us were on the slow side but they seemed to be waiting for the people in front of them quite a bit. Course itself was in fine shape for this time of the year. They have an issue on the 17th hole of which they are aware and are in the process of fixing.
Quick round
Teed off at 6:40 by myself finished a leisurely round at 9:15. Staff was friendly and accommodating. Course was in excellent shape.
Waiting game
The day started having to wait for golf carts to come in to start our round. We all had wet socks from all the water and mud. Every hole had 3 to 4 foursomes on it and at least 2 foursomes waiting at the T box. Our round started around 220 and as we finished up the 17th hole we were told we couldn’t go to the 18th hole and our round was over. It would be too dark before we finished. That was at around 715. Just about 5 hours of cart path only golf and didn’t even finish. It was the most tiring and slowest round of golf I ever played.
Decent place
You get what you pay for. Overall not bad. Hot dogs are awful
Hello, u314162393020. Thank you for leaving us a review. We are sorry to hear your experience was anything short of 5 stars, but we hope you will give us another try in the future. Thank you for choosing Gambler Ridge Golf Club.
Poor drainage causes ponding on fairways making several holes unplayable.
Perpetually Cart Path Only, I am crossing this course off my list until a drainage system solves the ponding everywhere problem or we get an extended dry period..
We apologize for the inconvenience caused by the cart path restrictions and appreciate your feedback on our drainage system. Thank you for taking the time to share your experience.
Conditions made it a long day
Course was in good condition, but weather compromised the round as we were cart path only due to the heavy rains the days before and the high winds. We were making good pace with the group ahead of us, until we made the turn when the groups in front of us switched making for a longer round. Didn't help matters when our cart got hit by a errant tee shot from them between 16 green and 17 tee. They claimed they yelled fore, but happed so fast not sure if we heard them. Other than that, it was a decent round of golf.
Thank you for your understanding regarding the weather conditions and for highlighting the course's good condition despite these challenges. We apologize for the inconvenience caused by the slower pace in the second half and the unfortunate incident with the errant tee shot; we hope to provide a smoother experience in the future.
Great course at great price
I have played many courses in NJ but I always like Gamblers because the course layouts are easy to my eyes and the course condition is always good.
Thank you for your kind words about our course! We're thrilled to hear you enjoy our course layouts and conditions. We look forward to welcoming you back soon!
Do Better
Played this course plenty of times never any complaints! But this round was a lot different! The greens were air raided and they had fertilized it as well! Every green had holes fertilizer rocks!! If there’s a need for hat and obviously there was. The course should have been shut down for he day or at least price it accordingly! Very disappointed in Gambles! I hope this isn’t a start to a downhill decline!! I’ll give it a go again and I hope it’s different!! Do Better
We're genuinely sorry for the disappointing experience caused by our maintenance activities. Thank you for your feedback, and we will consider your suggestions to improve moving forward.
Group of 3
Course was in decent shape except for the Tee boxes and the greens were covered with a small granular substance making putting impossible
We're sorry to hear that the condition of the Tee boxes and greens impacted your experience negatively. Thank you for bringing this to our attention, and we will work on improving them.
Top 2 worst course in NJ and it isn’t 2
No starter, first cart I got in didn’t start, second one I had to step on the gas for 3 seconds before it started moving, 9/18 greens had two holes because they can’t fill an old hole, greens were basically conditioned as fairways and full of old divot holes, some tee boxes look like they haven’t been cut since last season. Spend the couple extra bucks on a nicer course.
Don’t waste your money
Horrible course, greens are in terrible condition along with the fairways if you even want to call them that. Only positive is the pace of play because no one plays here so you can play as fast or as slow as you want. That doesn’t matter though because this course is worth about $5 to play and the carts barely even start up. The best part is more than half the greens have a second hole that they just haven’t bothered to fill in.
We're thrilled you love the course! Thank you for understanding the cart path only policy during the early season.
