Friendly staff, nice layout, but the fairways and greens are in bad shape with an abundance of unrepaired divots and ball marks. No sand in the sand buckets on the cart to do your own part. Pace of play was ridiculous - we waited for every shot from 1-18, and finished in 4 hours and 55 minutes - totally unacceptable. The only ranger we saw the entire 5 hours were two who brought a cart out when one of our groups broke down. This course is now managed by Billy Casper's Mgmt Co. - not Morris County Park Commission - I'd play elsewhere and am done here.

Could be one of most scenic courses in NJ, however, somewhat spoiled by poor layout of cart paths, minimal on-course facilities and lapses in course maintainance. Most of expensive of Morris County muni's but not clearly as good a value as the others.

This is a great course and a must play for any golfer in NJ. This is easily in my top 5 courses played. To see my full review of the course and pictures of all 18 holes please visit my site at www.golfcoursereviewgurus.com

We played after aeration of greens; they gave a discount, which was fair. Beautiful setting in a valley, with several fairways along the hillside. For a county course, a bit pricey, but worth it.
