On an relatively mild high 40's December day the day after Christmas this was a nice relaxing getaway from the holiday routine. The course was in very good condition even as the greens were a little Velcro like, which is not unexpected in winter. Course will be closed for a couple months so probably won't get back there till early Spring. It's a nice break from 4 plus hours to go and play 9 holes. Not a good course to walk overall. Houses around buffered nicely from the course.

Course is in best shape it has been. Not a bad 9 holes but there are two holes that are bad designs. They can be playable once you figure them out but that doesn't make them good holes. Overall it's a fun course.

Fun golf course. Blind par 3 was strange. Back to back par 3's and back to back par 5's. Hills dominate and small greens but very playable course. The 10th hole could be reworked a little to provide more fairway to hit to off the tee. If I lived in the area I'd play there from time to time. Overall course in good shape including greens. Small greens fit the yardage of course.

I have not played the East course for maybe five years and that was my only time on the course. But I have played the West course a few times recently and the East course is every bit as challenging, it's just a different type of golf course. I still don't like the 17th hole however. Late season aeration was a disappointment but we adapted with a two putt rule in general. It was in the 60's but damp with an on again off again drizzle.

Old school course. Tight, hilly, small greens. Course in good shape and greens fast. These greens were not designed for today's green speeds. Too many unnecessary trees.

This is a solid layout and some fun holes. One little odd thing was a wall diagonally across a par 5 hole. It was windy and chilly so would like to have another shot on a better day. Good bunkering sets up risk reward on some par 4 holes At least one of the photos on file on this page is from the old course, not the North course..

I haven't played here for a few years. Always liked the course layout. Nice mix of long and short holes. On this Fall day the course was in very good shape. Observations from today are too many trees that serve no purpose like along the side and in front of the 17th tee for starters. Also large pine trees need to be cut up from the ground for health if not just to speed up play, but could cut out a bunch and might not even be too noticeable. One consistent are in some places houses are too close to the course.

I like the layout and I have played it before and after the fire. First issue is that I don't know why so many single players were put out on the course that rushed up behind groups to play through. I makes the players in groups feel rushed and it frustrates the single players for various reasons. Even as a single player can play faster, a single has no standing on the golf course. I had looked into membership for a place to go and play a few holes if I didn't have time for 18 holes, but it seems to be just a public golf course with no control as in on course rangers. New clubhouse looks great and I am sure it will be nice inside as well. Course overall in good condition.

Perhaps the best condition public course I have seen in the area. Fairways were good and greens were better. I don't go there often but maybe I should. Some holes need to be seen and played to learn. Very tough finishing hole for sure and back nine par 5's are interesting.

Fairways coming back with bluegrass being over seeded with bent grass. Greens roll good but slower than normal currently. Pace of play great until last five holes that appeared backed up due to one foursome.

This is a classic old style course using hilly terrain and small greens in the design. There are enough trees lining the fairways but not enough to make them unplayable. This first trip was a learning experience playing some of these holes. Unfortunately the course conditions are average at best. Most of the greens were good and they putted well but a handful nestled in trees had bare spots. It isn't a long course but two par 3's in 8 and 17 require a long iron or a hybrid along with accuracy. Accuracy is a key for the entire course.

If you are looking for a place to play when in South Jersey put Shore Gate on your list. This is a quality golf course that will challenge from every set of tees. If the ninth hole doesn't get your attention then surely the 15th will. It is in excellent shape and the big undulating greens can run fast.

I took advantage of a hot deal. It was cart path only and the fairways show a lot of weather damage from heat then excessive rains and it was cart path only. For the hot deal price this was OK. Had I had to pay full price I might have been disappointed. Layout is good and course very playable from gold tees for me as I transition from regular to senior tees this year. Greens were good but understandably cut longer and slow. Great place to play golf.

I don't play much golf in Maryland but there can't be many better golf facilities than this one. No two holes even remotely alike and with six sets of tees anyone can enjoy it.

There are a handful of holes you need to play a couple times to learn how to play them. The second hole was very quirky and the 14th you had to know yardage for two creeks that cross the fairway. Overall enjoyed the course. It's not long but the hills, particularly the side hill fairways, make up for that. Two long par 3's played tough. Course seems to have several areas with water damage, some tees were in bad shape but the greens were good. On the slow side and tricky breaks to read, or not read, into some putts.

I had not played here for a while. I was surprised that course conditions were mostly better than average. The greens putted well while the fairways were OK but some of the tees were just dirt. Layout is OK and back nine is a stiffer test than the front.

Took a chance to get golf in with an iffy weather forecast but it was on a hot deal. It started to deteriorate and picked up my drive on 15 and called it a day just in time as thunder and some lightning and rain hit as I got to the car. Played as a single and moved along front nine in a shade over an hour. Caught another single on 10 and we were behind a twosome that wasn't slow but impeded our pace. Overall course was in decent shape and compared to a couple other daily fee courses nearby just over the river in NJ it was better. Staff was friendly as usual.

This course if often referred to as one with great par 3 holes. It is an average layout packed together with low areas that always seem wet. Some fun holes with the par 3's then mostly just golf holes. I've played there a handful of times this year and the conditions are noticeably going the wrong way. On this last visit the turf conditions show deterioration of a good base with thin and bare spots. Staff is great in pro shop and grill room.

Fun layout to play. Inland from the high priced shore layouts and easy to get to from the Philly area. Fun course with some interesting holes. Don't need driver but only a couple holes take it out of your hands. Staff is always great and grill room top notch as well. Greens were slow but given extreme weather it is understandable to keep them cut longer to prevent potential burnout.

Aside from a couple long par 5 holes the course was very playable for the 72-y-o from the white tees. The holes are designed so that even short par 4's require thinking on how to play them with doglegs and ponds. The greens were on the slow side but they were very good and smooth and the ball rolled well. The only negative was we had to sit for 45 minutes and wait to play even as a large group was coming off the course and nobody was teeing off on one or ten right in front of us. Once on the course it was wide open.
