Disappointing, Aug 21, 2007

reviewer: Anonymous from Montclair, NJ

I was very disappointed with this course. The greens were horrible and a few fairways were a mess too. Feels like a county course but costs twice as much.

Enjoyable course, May 21, 2007

reviewer: Jim from Wyckoff NJ

It is a very nice course with a great layout. Relatively secluded (no condos and fairways are not parallel to each other) and speed of play is good. Usually in very good condition, although the fairways are not "spongy".
