OVERBOOKED

I play this course quite often but no more. There were so many foursomes and it appears the staff did not adhere to tee times as we teed off on the 1st hole and before we got out to our second shots there was another foursome on the first tee. My son and I left after 12 holes due to unbearable slow play. Tee time was 2:10 and when we left it was almost 6pm. Never again especially on the weekend

Nice course for the money

overall course was about 3.5/5. I'm from NJ and our courses right now are very green. Greystone was not as well groomed and greens were off. Staff was very friendly

Great condition - rough just a bit too high

Very green and lush - rough just a bit too deep - lost balls in rough just off fairway. Cart Path only due to recent rains Very nice day out.

Nice short course/very good value

Overall 8/10. White tee boxes in very poor shape not much grass, Greens left something to be desired - some bare spots and many ball marks. Fairways were in very good shape. Great price for 18 holes with cart on a Sunday...

Great Course - Great Day

Course was in excellent shape. Pace of play was horrendous. Our threesome had to wait at every hole to tee off. Definitely needed Rangers out there to move some of the people along. Normally I don't hesitate to play here but after today's round I might think twice about returning.

GREAT value for a very nice course

Staff was very friendly, course in excellent condition. Only drawback is a lot of the bunkers were filled with rock and the cart paths need to be paved/leveled

Very Beautiful Course - Great Value

One of the most scenic courses in North Jersey. Only downfall was that the greens had been recently aerated and no mention on GolfNow. Otherwise Excellent

EXCELLENT VALUE/COURSE IN NEAR PERFECT CONDITION

Course was in near perfect condition. Only things I can think of is that there were many wet/muddy spots although it hasn't rained in almost a week. Also they were working on re-paving the cart paths and many bulldozers on course - can't knock them for sprucing up the course. Hard to believe but there weren't many golfers at the course at all. Played as a single and finished under 3 1/2 hours (included 20 minute break between nines). Highly recommend so long as weather cooperates.

Great Condition/Value

Got a teatime for 2 On a hot deal for under $30 each. The course was in excellent condition for early November and was truly scenic and lush. Layout was very nice and course played somewhat difficult but fair

Very NIce Experience

Staff was friendly. Course was in excellent shape especially in beginning of November. Fairways, tee boxes and greens all plush and in great shape. Greens especially fast. Got Hot Deal for $29 - worth every penny - even at regular price. Will definitely go back...

Poor overall conditions - New ownership upgrading

I have played this course over the years for the last 30 years or so. It went from a battered piece of garbage to a lush and luxurious country club type course and now back to a piece of garbage in need of work. Tee boxes looked like the rough and fairways had many bare spots and stones throughout as well as an overabundance of crabgrass. Owners are moving tee boxes and re-routing holes for a much more fluid round and it did appear as if they were trying to refurbish the course. Hopefully, in a few years it will be lush and luxurious again - but with that you'll most likely experience higher fees and slower play times

We appreciate you leaving us a review, and you're absolutely correct - we're putting a lot of time and effort (and money) into bringing this course back to being the lush and luxurious country club-type course you describe. We hope you'll book another round with us soon to see the results of all our hard work for yourself!
