Reviews
Had a tee time for noon, show up at 11:40 to check in and was then told they had a 2 hour frost delay and were running behind so bad that the 10am hour tee times were just going out. We were not notified prior to our arrival that there was a delay. I have never played on a course that does not text/email when there is an issue with scheduled tee times. We only played 9 because holes were backed up seven groups back. Will not be coming back to pay $90plus for poor communication. If we would have played 18 we would have been there six plus hours. Not fair to the customers to have a poor experience because you don't want people to cancel due to the delay.
Golf Shop Staff: 0/5 Management: 0/5 Course Conditions: 3.75/5 Pace of Play: 4/5 What a shame. This course has the potential to be a very good public golf facility. The layout is decent, the pace of play was very good for a public golf course, and the course itself was in decent condition. Unfortunately, the customer service experience completely overshadowed the golf. My group booked a 6:30 a.m. tee time through GolfNow for Sunday, June 7. We arrived early and found no staff on site. Assuming there may have been an error, I checked both GolfNow and the course website. The course website was still advertising 6:30 a.m. tee times, including for the following Sunday, so there was no reason for us to believe our reservation was incorrect. We were not the only group tugging on the doors thinking we could pay for our rounds prior to 7am. When the staff eventually arrived, we were greeted with anything but hospitality. As soon as we mentioned our 6:30 a.m. tee time, one staff member laughed and joked, “Charge them triple.” If the course no longer intends to offer tee times that early, that issue belongs with management—not the customers who booked a time that was publicly available. The first comment from the golf professional was that someone had parked in his parking spot. There was no signage indicating any reserved parking, and it was a strange thing to bring up when welcoming paying customers. The interaction felt unnecessarily negative and set the tone for the rest of the experience. After taking payment, there were no directions regarding cart pickup, the driving range, or even a simple “have a good round.” Every interaction inside the golf shop felt cold and unwelcoming. Ironically, the only genuinely pleasant interaction we had all morning was with a gentleman I assume was the superintendent. He was friendly, professional, and enjoyable to talk with while we waited for the golf shop staff to arrive. As a former PGA professional, I find it disappointing to see customer service handled this way. Growing the game starts with making golfers feel welcome, whether they are members, regulars, or first-time visitors. The course has potential, but for $90+ per round, golfers should expect more than decent conditions—they should also expect basic hospitality. Unfortunately, based on this experience, I will not be returning. Good news for the golf pro's parking situation... I would stir clear unless you enjoy paying $90+ to feel ostracized.
$98 for a Sunday round. The tee boxes were in pretty rough shape, some sloping, most with a lot of divots. The fairways weren’t bad, and the bunkers were in solid condition. The greens have seen better days, tons of pitch marks and scars. Some greens had orange trails as if a mower was leaking something. Tee sheet was packed and didn’t see a ranger enforcing pace of play at all. Definitely seems like a load em up and take their money situation. In no way is this course worth $98.
First tee time Friday 8/23 and my first time playing here. Course is in really great shape for the price ($41). Not terribly difficult or long, which is great for my skill level. Some interesting holes and greens. Driving range was closed, I think this is normal on Fridays to prepare for the weekend. Greens were recently aerated but played fairly well. Some deer met me on the first hole. Finished in 3 hours (the joy of teeing first) Will most definitely be back!
Some fairways are better than others, sand traps need a little attention. I would come again, super close to my home in Delran. They're currently doing some construction on hole 2, which is closed today.
