Challenging for an executive course, expensive for one too

It was a challenging course with tons of hazards to practice distance and accuracy. Narrow fairways, lots of debris and tall grass. If you get stuck in the rough, you’ll forever be stuck there, grass is super thick and long. We lost a ton of balls - it is super hard to find them either in the rough or any of the hazards. Lots of creeks - I’d say 80% of the holes have a creek somewhere on them. It is hard to use the driver for the par 4s because they’re mostly holes you’d want to lay up, so I got very little driver practice.

We didn’t realize when booking that it is an executive course, so all par 3s with four par 4s for the 18. (2 each 9). We bought a cart which was $40 for two of us without realizing it was executive, and I am pregnant so a regular 18 hole course is a lot to walk currently.

It does have some Portos on the course, which again I appreciate!

Well kept executive

I enjoyed my round, scored about my handicap but now knowing a couple details about the layout I'd be interested in going back to improve.
Good learner's course.

Bird waste

Fairways have lot of bird waste, especially on the 3rd and 8th holes. Cannot walk any where on these two without walk through it

Wet weather
Walked

Nice short course.

I have not played the course in the Spring, Summer, or Fall, so I do not know what it is like when the grass is green and growing and there are leaves on the trees.
Therefore, my review may not be worth that much.

However, I like the course a lot. Many of the holes are very well designed and visually attractive. It is easy to walk, and you are for the most part surrounded by nature.

The greens were in good shape. Some holes don't drain well (3 is the worst) so it can be swampy.

This round we finished in a little over three hours, but it can take longer.

I have to try it during real golf season. You should too.

Raritan Landing

Decent executive course, nice design. Super short par 4s. All good here except the multiple groups of 5somes and 6somes out there. Seems to be normal there too. I was a single and luckily found 3 cool guys to play with. Clubhouse is closed for renovations.

Great little course

Great short course. Currently no clubhouse so there is no food or bathrooms other than a couple of portapotties. That said would still come here again and again

Great value

Very nice executive course. In good shape particularly after a day of rain. Greens and tees in good shape. Only four fairways come into play and they were in good shape as well. $16 through GolfNow for 18 holes… Can’t beat that.
Easily walked by this seasoned citizen. Was fairly empty when I played most likely due to 90* temp. 2.5 hours playing by myself. <4 miles to walk. Only drawbacks are lack of water to drink on the course and poor signage.

This course is also a boost for the golf ego;)

Good Par 3 Course

Really nice par 3 course. Unexpected but beneficial as you don't get to work on par 3 as often. Definitely a feeler course as it relates to clubs and distance to hole. Recommended with push cart!

Holiday Round

Short course was easy to walk. Tee boxes, fairways, greens and bunkers were in great shape. Round took longer than expected because a lot of folks were freed from work for Juneteenth holiday. Would play here again.

This is a short par-three course (only 3 legit par-four holes. Pace of play is extremely slow. Lots of beginners on the course.

Not worth the money

For experienced golfers you can get a much better round for the same price (maybe even less) as what this place cost.
