Reviews
We got married at SkyView in September 2026 and it was a perfect wedding. The venue itself is gorgeous – we received so many compliments from our guests during & after the wedding. While we didn’t get to have an outdoor ceremony due to weather, the main reception ballroom was a great backup. Our coordinator, Jenn, was communicative and helpful throughout the process, and the entire staff were extremely well-organized during the day of the wedding (shoutout in particular to Jenn, Jasmine, Laura, and Rylee)! The food was great, especially during cocktail hour – some of our guests’ favorites were the prime rib, eggplant rollatini, pub station (wings, popcorn shrimp). Many of our guests were full ahead of the reception. Outside of cocktail hour, we highly recommend the penne vodka as the first course, and the SkyView fat sandwich as the late-night snack selection. All of our guests had a great time at SkyView and we highly recommend it to prospective couples!
We got married this September in Skyview and we cannot say enough wonderful things about SkyView Golf Club and the entire team. From start to finish, Hildegard, Jenn, Laura, and everyone involved made our wedding day absolutely seamless. Their attention to detail was incredible, and every step of the planning process made us feel supported, cared for, and completely confident that everything would be taken care of. On the day of the wedding, they made everything run so smoothly that we were able to fully enjoy every moment. They truly went above and beyond to make the day feel special and personalized. Our guests are still talking about how amazing the food was and how exceptional the service was throughout the entire event. We are so grateful to the SkyView team for helping create such a perfect day and would recommend them to any couple without hesitation!
We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect venue for our wedding! From the moment we started planning, everyone was incredibly attentive, helpful, and genuinely invested in making our day everything we dreamed it would be. Hildegard was absolutely amazing throughout the entire process. She went above and beyond to make sure every single detail was perfect, and she made us feel so supported and taken care of from start to finish. She was attentive to all of our little requests, made sure everything ran smoothly, and somehow always seemed to be one step ahead of us. Her care and attention to detail truly made a difference and allowed us to relax and enjoy our wedding day knowing everything was in good hands. The entire staff was wonderful, professional, and so accommodating. The venue itself was beautiful, the food was incredible, and everything came together seamlessly. Our guests are still talking about what an amazing time they had! We are so grateful to everyone at Skyview Golf Club for helping make May 9, 2026 one of the most special and unforgettable days of our lives. We would wholeheartedly recommend Skyview to anyone looking for a wedding venue — and if you’re lucky enough to work with Hildegard, you’re in the best possible hands! ❤️
Choosing SkyView Golf Club as our wedding venue was the best decision that we made. We worked with Jenn and she made the entire planning process so seamless and easy. She was patient with all of our questions and we had full confidence in her. For the actual wedding day, the entire staff was absolutely incredible. Jenn was there the entire time and made sure we got everything we needed. We also had two bridal attendants who were extremely attentive and made the entire bridal party feel so comfortable. The maitre d' was helpful as well with making sure the ceremony and reception service went smoothly. Our guests were complimenting the food and service all night. The venue was beautiful and we would highly suggest SkyView to any newly engaged couples!
I genuinely do not even know where to begin this review but here goes nothing! SkyView Golf Club is one of those courses where the name makes perfect sense the moment you get out onto the property. I’ve played a lot of public golf around New Jersey, and SkyView genuinely delivered some of the most spectacular scenery I’ve experienced during a round. The views are absolutely incredible. As you climb through the property, you’re treated to huge panoramic views across the rolling hills and mountains of Sussex County. Several elevated tee boxes feel like overlooks rather than golf holes. On a clear day, with the deep blue sky, mountains stretching across the horizon and seemingly endless trees below you, it’s hard not to stop for a minute and take everything in. Then there are the holes overlooking the water. Standing high above the course with the lake visible through the valley below was easily one of the highlights of the round. Pictures are beautiful, but they really don’t capture the elevation or sense of scale you get standing there in person. And thankfully, this isn’t just a beautiful property with a golf course on it — the golf itself is excellent. The elevation changes are a huge part of SkyView’s personality. You’ll stand on elevated tees looking WAY down toward your target, then find yourself facing approaches back uphill later in the round. There are holes where you can absolutely send a drive into the air and watch it seemingly fly forever. It makes club selection interesting and gives the course a character you simply don’t get from flatter layouts. Conditions during my round were fantastic. The fairways were lush, green and beautifully striped, the rough was thick and healthy, and the tee boxes were very well maintained. Looking down some of these fairways from the elevated tees, the combination of immaculate grass, rolling terrain and mountains in the background almost looked like something from a golf calendar. I also loved that the course never became visually repetitive. One hole gives you a massive open vista. The next brings trees into play. Then you’re looking across a valley, climbing a hill, dealing with strategically placed bunkers or standing on another elevated tee wondering how much the downhill shot is actually going to affect your yardage. SkyView also rewards smart golf. You don’t need to attack everything with driver. With the slopes, elevation changes, bunkering and trees, putting yourself in the correct position can be far more valuable than simply chasing distance. Miss badly in certain areas and the course can absolutely punish you, but good shots are rewarded. It’s challenging without feeling unfair. And yes — take the cart. 😂 Looking at these hills from a photograph is one thing. Traveling through them for 18 holes gives you an entirely different appreciation for just how dramatic this property is. What impressed me most is that I can already picture specific holes and tee shots from the round. That’s usually how I judge whether a course was truly memorable. Some courses are perfectly nice but start blending together the second you leave the parking lot. SkyView does not. This is destination-worthy public golf in North Jersey: incredible elevation changes, fantastic conditions, memorable holes and views that legitimately make you stop between shots just to look around. If you’re a golfer in New Jersey and haven’t played SkyView yet, put it on your list. Play it on a clear day, give yourself time to enjoy the scenery, and don’t be surprised if your camera comes out almost as often as your clubs. What also impressed me was the fact that at the 3rd, 7th, and 18th you get to stop at the halfway house for drinks 🍹! They also have a cart girl who was amazing!! All of the staff here made the round even more memorable Absolutely deserving of 5 stars. One of the most visually impressive rounds I’ve played in New Jersey, and a course I would return to without hesitation. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
