Front nine tees and greens open, back 9 tees open may 1st. They are in great condition, greens getting better every day, fairways are also growing in nice, not any rough around fairways, bring your credit card, cash not accepted on course, why not I don’t understand.
Front nine versus back nine
A lot of work done on front nine . Back nine still under construction but it helped my game by 10 shots over front nine so make the day excellent also price was right
Coming along great!
I’ve played this course over the years. During construction and temporary tees, this course was still great. Yesterday was the first time playing with regular tees and WOW do they make a difference. ( only played the front 9 ) The course layout is amazing, a short par 3 is now 200 yards. Tee boxes are pristine. Greens roll fast ( still some aeration ) Once this course is 100%, there is no doubt a go to course regularly. Even in its condition now, it’s worth the money.
This course has improved immensely.
The day I played, the greens were still recovering from aeration process in the back nine tee boxes were temporary tees. Very nice course.
Great Course
First time playing here and I had a great experience. Helpful staff, good pace of play, fun course that offers a good mix of both straightforward and challenging holes. I’ve seen some comments about the condition not being great in the past but when I played the course looked great. Some temp tee boxes on the back 9 but was told they’ll be ready to go in the next couple weeks. I look forward to come back here again soon!
Course is improving greatly!
People want multi year changes overnight. Happy to support a course that is putting so much money back into making this a great track. Wish the clubhouse would accept cash but course is so much improved over last year already and excited to see the continual hard working coming into fruition
A pleasurable golf experience
Great job with the tees and greens. I will be playing Pinelands many times this year. Staff friendly and helpful. 5 stars
April 2023 - Back Nine Still Under Construction
New tee boxes were in place, but only on the front nine were new tee boxes accessible. On the back nine, I was teeing off on uneven, patchy ground at best. Several modified tee boxes were moved 40 or more yards forward from the actual tee boxes, so it made for much shorter holes. Some areas surrounding tee boxes on the back nine were just bare dirt, as renovations are still ongoing. The fairways and greens were not cut, despite the practice green being cut, giving golfers a false representation of what was to come on their round. In my opinion, the increased greens fees were totally out of line considering the course conditions. Also, the snack shack at the turn does not accept CASH for purchases. Who does this? I won't be back until I hear they've completed all renovations. This place has great potential, but they still have a way to go.
Revised tee
First thing is had 9 yrs old grandson playing and course wouldn't allow a wawa bag with water on the course. It was a hot day and didn't want me grandson to dehydrated. Was to no cooler or bags allowed on course. Also modified tee boxes which meant all tee boxes were unavailable and green's were aerated and bumpy. Still payed full price. Very disappointing.
Temporary Tees
I really like Pinelands but playing in mid April was a disappointment due to temporary tees on every hole. Also, most greens had aerator marks on themI know they plan on opening the front soon but still a lot of work going on. I am sure when it is up and running review will improve
ALWAYS UNDER CONSTRUCTION
When I tell you this is one of the best course layouts in New Jersey, I’m not exaggerating. This course has so much potential but they can’t ever seem to have everything under control. Don’t play here unless you want 12 300 yard par 4’s. Tee boxes are under construction and look purer than most private clubs. No reason they should be closed. It’s the middle of April and I can’t even post a score there. That’s a huge problem. Greens were aerated on the back 9 but not the front? They punched them on the same day apparently.
Sad to see such a good track not being utilized the way it should be. Ownership prioritized their club house before the golf course. Massive problem.
Course was in terrible shape!
To be charged $50 per person for the shape the course was in is a crime. No mention that all of the tee boxes were under construction, hole nine was not a hole at all. The par three's were so far up a full pitching wedge would sail the green. It was also blatantly obvious that the greens had been very recently been air rated, so the greens were less than stellar. Some communication from that staff would have been nice. The course was so short my father and I played all 17 holes in two hours...The course shape was terrible and a more conducive price for that slope would have been $25 at best.
I have played Pinlands close to 25-30 times in the past three years and this was the worst I have ever seen it or any course frankly. After that experience, I don't know if we will play there again.
Course under repair
Course will be outstanding in a few months. There was no pr round information that all tees were temporary and moved WAY up. Had we known we would have played elsewhere. Had a problem with workers ithat made an issue of moving their vehicle when we needed to make a shot. Not a good day.
Under construction
Not one tee box was playable. all recently sodded
Great for future play, but shouldn’t have to pay full price when you’re basically playing from a fairway lie at every tee
Expensive
We were charged $80 full price and every tee box was under repair and the temporary tee box was 100 yards forward.
Should warn of extensive course construction
This course resembles a construction site, yet there's no notice when making tee time. Several holes had temporary greens and temporary tee boxes. The good news is they're working to vastly improve quality, which takes time. However, it is simple respect to notify would-be players that the course is under massive construction.
Temp tees, temp greens
I'd have been Ok with spending a few bucks here for a Sunday at 1 PM on any given day because I've played here before and it is a terrific course.
However I think 14 of the 18 holes on this day had either moved up temp tees, or a false temp green or both. It is essentially totally under repair and is in all intents and purposes a glorified par 3 course.
And the greens that are open? Aerated. I know this is the season, but the course should be up front about the conditions. When I asked a worker as I walked up how the course is, I got 'Fine, good shape.' Maybe the kid thought I meant somewhere else.
Save your money and go to a Par 3 executive course, at least until this is fixed up (in 2024 maybe it may all be grown in).
