Gem
Great layout, hidden gem, greens could be quicker but may not have cut since had early am storms.
Hi, u741842840. Thank you so much for the great review. We are glad you had an incredible time, and we hope to see you again soon! Thanks for choosing Francis Byrne Golf Course.
Challenging golf course and we’ll maintained
The bunkers could be given more attention, new sand added and groomed.
Need more rangers on the course to make sure the pace of a round is increased. The few rangers they have on the course need to be firm in enforcing a faster pace for the round. Slow pace would be my biggest complaint about Byrne.
We apologize for the pace of play issue you experienced. We always try to keep a great pace when having our golfers on the course. Thank you for taking the time to give us your feedback as we will use your review to better the experience going forward. We hope you give us another try in the near future!
Solid Course with sub-par amenities
I play this course all the time and over the years the renovations and upgrades that have been made to the course are great. Course is in decent shape most of the time (although currently the 7th green is under repair) and it's a good test of golf. Why they don't sell beer or have any kind of real food service is a problem that should be rectified.
Hi, u314160485236. Thank you so much for your feedback. We are glad you had enjoyed your time at Francis Byrne Golf Course, and pride ourselves on delivering the best experience possible.

Overcharged
I was supposed to pay $116; I called golf now and the rep was supposed to call me back today with the update. Haven't heard back and I do not want $60 in credit for Monday - Thursday. I only play on the weekends.

Really good bang for the buck
Hilly course. Almost exclusively par 3 and par 4. Some really unique architecture. I will definitely be coming back.

Very disappointed
This is my tenth year as a Essex County golf member. The condition of Byrne is the worst it’s ever been, particularly the greens. The last few years have had excellent conditions. I’ve played Weequahic twice this year and the conditions there are very good. I’ve even asked if the same groundskeeper is at Byrne this year because of the poor conditions.
Agree, with mab2121. Played there on 5/14, surprised at the conditions at this stage in the season. Hoping they can turn it around soon.

NIce course condition in the spring
It is the nicest weather of this year. The course is packed but the pace is acceptable. Enjoy a round of nice golf without much of wind.
Thank you for taking the time to review us, drfcc. Your feedback is valuable, and we look forward to delivering you excellent service again soon. Francis Byrne Golf Course thanks you!

Need to offer handicap flags
