In summary

Essex County Country Club is highly regarded for its beautifully maintained and challenging golf course, often ranked among the top in New Jersey. The club offers excellent amenities, including quality dining services and a friendly, professional staff. While the course layout is praised for its strategic design, some visitors mention occasional slow greens and interference between holes due to the compact footprint. Additionally, the membership process has been criticized by a few for being unclear.

Bethpage Black meets Wild Turkey. ECCC is my new favorite course in North NJ! A true test with elevation changes, tiered greens and steep green side bunkers - challenging, but not unfair. Dining service and food quality was fantastic, as well.

Fantastic country club, easily one of the best in the state. The golf course is regularly rated among the top 10 in the region, and deserves to be ranked even higher. The back nine is commonly referred to as having the best back nine in the state (behind Pine Valley). The front nine, while a bit more scorable, has some great holes as well. The conditions are always pristine with long rough, tightly mown fairways, firm and fast greens.

A beautiful and challenging golf course. Their website has a detailed outline of the holes layout. Read it before playing here...it will save you some strokes...

Great club with great history. The golf course is the best in the state of NJ. Challenging course to play but calm and fun environment. They renovated the club a decade ago, it some time to get used to it but layout is nice. The food and drinks are decent, staff is nice and the store apparel is great. Members only club but I recommend coming over if you get invited.

The event I attended at the Essex County country club was job related. They did such a beautiful job with the room for dinner and the-wait staff. I would highly recommend this place.

Fun course, interesting course layout. Some greens are quite challenging with steep green-side hills and bunkers below. Due to the limited overall course footprint, there are some interference between holes. The club room and the restaurant is nice. Staff and caddies are friendly.
