No driving range. No drinking water available on course. Water fountains have been removed and not replaced. You will not see a beverage cart girl until around 9am. So if you are playing early bring water, as once again, there is no drinking water on the course.
The course itself is beat up. Fairway has unfixed divots. Only primary cut. An inch off the fairway you will find an assortment of conditions. No grass, crab grass, thick grass and dirt. Around the greens also in bad shape. The movement of the town to remove town employees from the course maintenance has resulted in “dogtrack” like conditions. Troon Golf has recently taken over for Applied Golf. The course is open pretty much all year, this translates into awful course conditions as divots and ball marks created in January, Will not grow back. Greens have many unfixed ball marks.
Recent tree work is very noticeable and opens up the course in a great way.
Bunkers are new on pines and wood course. These bunkers are now having issues, with a thin layer of sand and then hard cement like gravel. Lakeside bunkers are currently having a full renovation.
Pace of play is 4.5-5 hour round on weekends. The issue is the three different nines which makes the round inconsistent. Your front nine could be 2 hours pace of play, but your back nine is 2.5 hour pace which is frustrating. You never know what your back nine will be like pace of play wise. You could be going from the 9th to 10th hole and have to all of a sudden wait 15 minutes because new groups are teeing off.
The course brings in almost 1 million dollars per year in revenue for the town. The course does not see it, the golfers don’t see it.

Beautifully maintained course with a great layout and challenging holes. Only a short drive from Bergen County, making it super convenient. Staff were welcoming, greens rolled true, and the overall pace of play was smooth. Definitely worth a visit if you’re in the area!

Excellent course! 27 holes only about 15 minutes away from Bergen County. We really enjoyed our time here. Staff was nice and pace of play was pretty good. Seemed to be a big walker course.
