Meadows Golf Club in Lincoln Park offers a casual and enjoyable round for players of all skill levels. For more of a challenge, golfers can try the blue tees while the white and the red tees are more forgiving of errant shots. The course sprawls across mostly flat terrain but there are a few subtly elevated greens to contend with. The layout is situated amidst native wetlands, which come into play on many of the holes. The back nine is more challenging than the front, with the toughest hole being the par-5 13th. At 455 yards, it's not a long hole but there are two large fairway bunkers and an elevated green that is surrounded by even more sand. The best view on the golf course can also be enjoyed from the middle of the green on this hole.

The course was very wet. There were puddles everywhere. The course should’ve been closed. Was very disappointed in the condition.

First Time Playing

Grounds were terrible from the rain.

Conflicted because I understand that playing in rain is not the courses fault, but man there were some humongous puddles on the fairways. Also, there was no starter so it was a free for all. We started 30 minutes after our time.

However, the course layout is actually nice, and I will come back to try again once it’s dried up a little bit.

An OK morning at the Meadows

It’s been a couple of years since I last played the Meadows course. They have made some big improvements but the course doesn’t drain any better. The layout is better. The greens had been aerated about 2 weeks ago and are still rough. 7th hole is flooded so temporary tee. It will get better. Ok for a casual round.

Perfect weather
Walked

Muddy Waters

Despite overall poor course conditions (due to water retainage), it's walkable, & if you don't mind the puddles, mud & eaten up fairways, bunkers, every (non-existent) tee box. No markers were a bonus!
Still, a beautiful (3.5 hours!) day and fun to watch playing partners' while I 'tried' to keep up.

Poor conditions but legit reasons

I’ve played here before and will again under better conditions. Course should be closed. Yes it’s December. Partially frozen grounds, puddles, wet, aerated greens, puddles in sand traps, cart path only. Should be closed and considered unplayable. If you’re going to charge to play and remain open the course should be playable. Yeah I didn’t have to book it but I can’t physically see the course. The people running it must know it’s not playable.

First year of playing golf.

This is a great course for its proximity and skill level. This is my first season playing golf and I had the opportunity to play a few course in northern New Jersey. I would def recomend Meadows and continue to play thete for learning, practicing and bringing friends of all levels to play as well.
