Good course, in great condition. Each hole is a replica of a famous hole from Europe/U.K. Everything flows really well, it’s wide open, but you still need to hit good shots in order to score well. 16/17 seemed a bit out of place when you look at the course as a whole. Pace was right on track and the rangers were really nice and wanted to get to know us. One downside was the group behind would fire off their tee shots before we could even get our second shots in, then just kept going and had no respect or patience. I would come back. Priced decently, and if it’s a cooler day and you go out late…

Beautiful links course that was well kept. Challenging enough for a course without trees and very unique back nine. Each hole of the course is modelled after a famous hole in Europe. The food was pretty good and friendly staff. However the water at each hole was empty which was ridiculous to me. There wasn't any water all 18 holes of the course. But overall a great place and I'll be going back.

Meant for the more experienced golfer, this links course offers holes that will test your skills. Prepare for winds, and bring a few extra balls. Fairways were decent shape for August, and the greens are wicked fast.

It is definitely one of my favorite courses in New Jersey. They designed each hole based on a legendary course in Scotland, Ireland, England, and France.

I really enjoyed this course. It's close to my house so we play it often. It's also priced well. It's mostly wide open so you get some wind which is great during hot summer days. Lots of unique holes and, of course, a great finish on 18 dumping into the vagabond for burgers.

Pretty good course. Nice elevation changes and thankfully the greens are relatively wide. The rough isnt so forgiving, but its not as bad as it used to be. I usually only lose 10 balls on this course... Beer tends to help

I tried calling the clubhouse and left a message - I have still not received a call back- UPDATE- The GM called me back somehow even though he didn't get my message, so how did you get my number? The GM vaguely remembers the day but was unsure about what to do about the situation - The interaction was just to save a google review- I do not wanna play here again & not looking for a free round , what I was looking for was some accountability. Vagabond Kitchen & Tap is fantastic — highly recommend stopping in for a drink or bite to eat. Unfortunately, the same can’t be said for the golf course a…

Second year playing at this course, cannot recommend this place enough. 10/10. Course is in incredible condition. I will speak past the course for a moment. The people. The people at this course are absolute class. From the guys that check in your bags, to Ben the starter, to Chris the ranger. Special shoutout to Chris, the ranger, an absolute asset to this course. Chris took time to help my friend find his ball, escorted my girlfriend to the club house bathroom while the course bathrooms were going through maintenance cleaning, and stayed up to date with our 2v2 best ball scramble all day. W…
