Former president of the PGA of America, Leo Fraser, designed the 18-hole public course at the Mays Landing Golf Club with both advanced and beginning golfers in mind. Touted as the "best birdie for the buck," the Mays Landing golf course provides a great value for all golfers. The course was meticulously designed over 175 acres of beautiful pineland with scenic tree-lined fairways.

Mays Landing Golf Club provides an experience similar to one at a private country club with its excellent service and amenities including a pro shop, restaurant, and PGA instructors on site. On hot days they even have cool towels for you and they always have roaming beverage carts. The course is 6,633 yards at the longest tees, playing to a par of 72.

This course I would rate average as far as condition and playability (cart paths need repair, rough is very rough) but what sets this golf course apart is their hospitality. The moment my son and I got out of my truck somebody came over with a cart smiling and put bags in cart and told me to take it up to pro shop. Helpful Marshall directed me when I got to pro shop and pro shop was very helpful with tips and info. We came early and used their practice facilities which are the best I have seen yet, largest putting green, bunker practice, chipping practice, the Marshall came by and said whenever I was ready I could go to first tee. I have been to nicer golf courses with grumpy people working at it, which I never understood, but here they really make you feel right at home and it is reasonably priced. I will be coming back here again soon even though it is 30 minutes away as I feel they want you there, not like other golf courses where they make you feel like you are bothering them.

This is very similar to most Jersey shore courses. It had a good mixture of hazards and none of the holes seemed redundant. The staff was extremely friendly and accommodating. There's a bar right at the first hole and you can restock at the turn.

If I had to nitpick, there were a few dry patches and the fairway bunkers weren't in the best shape. The greens were recently aerated, but should be fine soon. It was a great course for the value and I'll definitely be back in the future.

"Aeration Notice Not Given?!"

I typically enjoy playing at Mays Landing, as their course is of reasonable quality and you can find decent deals. However, not giving an aeration notice is ridiculous, especially considering their website's tee time bookings are linked through GolfNow as well. The greens were completely unplayable with massive aeration holes and felt more like wet hilly sponges than anything else. I had "putts" jumping multiple inches off of the ground.

We played this course for the first time. We enjoyed it very much and loved the five t blocks. They had aerated the greens which made putting a little trying. We will go back when the greens are back to normal.
