2hrs30mins and wasn’t even through 7 holes

Probably one of the worst paces of play ever!! 2hrs30mins and we were only through 7 holes!!! By the time we finished the 9th hole the total time it took to play 9 holes was about 2hrs and 50 mins ! Almost three hours 9 holes ! What a joke I walked off after that and didn’t even finish. Course usual has backup and probably needs a marshal at all times.

SLOW ROUND needs rangers

For what it cost to play the number one public golf course in NJ, it should not have taken longer to play compared to any muni/county course in the state. 5 HOURS AND 15mins is the insane and uncalled for nowadays. It didn’t help that the group in front of us was also with the group in front of them. Seeing an 8some on the tee box was quite infuriating, enough so to throw you off your game. The only point something was said to them was at the 10th when the group behind us said something to the staff at the turn. Were we a twosome on a Sunday? Yes but we as well as the other twosome behind us were keeping a proper pacing as to not be on top of one another. So the solution instead of moving song the “mock outing” that was in front us they moved along the twosome behind us to join us. 5Hours and 15mins was absurd to play at a course charging premium rates. We need to get back to rangering courses to help regulate pace.

Great course understand the value increase

It is always a great course that usually has plenty of tee times and have made tremendous improvements so I understand the raise in rate but 90 is a bit steep right now, 80 on the weekend is about right

Worst pace of play

Seemed like we were waiting on every single shot . Tee shots and approach shots always waiting. Consider maybe bumping back the tee boxes or have rangers on the course especially on that 4th hole.. shouldn’t take 5+ hours

Consider staggering the tee times a little more

Love the course but due to the combo of short holes followed by long holes ..like 1-4 it gets a little bit backed up

Fix the fairways and the bunkers

Nice relaxing round with my brother and two of.our friends who don't quite play as often so the pace and lack of.being rushed was nice. The greens we're the best part they rolled nice but the fairways and bunkers need work. Both were dry and burnt and the bunkers were loaded with rocks or just unplayable due to being way to firm

Over the top ranger

Great course ... front desk staff were super friendly and accommodating... however the ranger was super over the top on going purely off the sheet of paper time range as to where you should be at what time and what hole ... not taking into account that the group behind us were a group of ladies teeing it up from the ladies tees so they are always going to be up on his at any point especially on the par 3s. Love the course but the rangers need to evaluate the realtime pace of play and less on what a sheet is telling them. Took us about 4hrs and 20mins.

Good weather
Used cart

Really... Aeration at the end of august

Greens were horrible and bumpy the balls while putting were bouncing every which way... nice course... not worth the 61 for the way those greens played.. unless i missed it there should have been some sort of warning the greens were aerated... pace of play was also slow.. it was a nice looking course.. just wish the greens were not aerated and pace of play was faster ... id like to give this course another try but im not to sure
