Spring Meadow Golf Course

course is well maintained; amenities are great; staff is friendly. The only layout flaw is that the 9th hole doesn't take you back to the clubhouse, which makes it less likely to start at the back nine or only play the back 9.

I have played Spring Meadow a number of times. It's a cool layout and for the price, I have always been able to overlook the mediocre conditions (no sand in the bunkers, some areas of greens damaged, a few torn up tee boxes, etc). However after my most recent visit I will not be returning.

We had a 10:32 tee time, but ended up sitting for a half hour waiting to tee off. The starter claimed that there was a twosome he started on the 5th hold earlier in the day that he needed to put between us and the tee time before us (even though the tee times were only 10 minutes apart. This backed us and everyone behind us up for the first 4 holes, where we were waiting on every shot.

I guess the starter realized he created a mess, because once that extra twosome finished the 4th hole and left, he and the ranger starting harassing our group, saying there we were too far behind the group in front us, conveniently ignoring this was because of the now missing twosome he had stuck in there, which caused all the delays.

They forced us to skip a hole and then continue to hound us throughout the round even though we were playing faster than the group behind us, which is impressive given we were walking the group behind was in carts.

When we finished, we were able get to the parking lot, put our gear away, walk to the bar, go to the bathroom, and get halfway through our first beers before the group behind us finished more than 20 minutes after us, so we were clearly not holding anyone up, yet the staff harassed us the entire round when it was the starters screw up and not our pace that caused the problems.

Definitely will just pay the extra $20 to play the nicer county courses from now on.

The course is in pristine condition from the tee boxes to the greens A forgiving course with a less challenging layout the staff was great , made this newcomer feel welcomed Will definitely return

The greens here are fantastic. Large and well groomed. Lots of trees and rolling landscape.

Course is in good shape except for 3 to 4 tee boxes.A little bit of money could fix tee boxes and bathroom. Maybe State of NJ can help here since it is state land.

Nice course to play. The fairway were in pretty good shape with some sharp dog legs. Overall, a fun and fairly challenging course except for the tee boxes. I didn't have my drill and 1\4" bit to drill a hole for my martini tee but I wish I did. They were hard as a rock. Limited grass causing an uneven surface, with a lot of hard dirt. It's not a hard think to fix but I guess they don't want to. Greens we're ok but ball seemed to bounce a bit due to the recent aeration.
