The bad reviews surely are old. I played here and had a fantastic time - the layout of the course is phenomenal, the conditions are top. A bit challenging for the higher handicapers, but great risk-reward. Staff super helpful and professional. A bit pricey, but you get what you pay. Recommended.

What a course. The best I’ve played this year, and I’ve played a few great courses. In New Jersey make this course one to visit for sure! Immaculate conditions throughout. Some greens had some careless people not fix their pitch marks but other than that I cannot complain. Very hospitable staff too!

Shore Gate is easily one of the nicest courses near the Jersey shore. Featuring undulating greens and fairways, with a terrific and interesting layout, this course will keep you coming back. Although it is not in eye-popping condition as it had been in the past years, it is still a sight to behold. When it is in top shape, you’ll feel like you walked into the TV during the PGA tour. Plenty of tee boxes (some very far back) maintain the championship course feel. The risk-reward design presents you with constant gambles, with deep sand traps galore. One hole is half sand trap. Some traps have the good sand, but some look like the old Sand Barrens course. Even though it is a shore course, you’ll survive without bug spray, and won’t get punished by the afternoon bay breeze. Excellent practice facilities also. A MUST play.
