7/22/12..Tee off was 8:39 and waited on every tee box and every shot thereafter..Sometimes 2 groups at the tee box at the same time..This is the reason people quit golf or dont start playing,SLOW PLAY..Greens were horrible, littered with ball marks,very slow, and in ragged condition,the ball didnt roll smoothly on any green..We left after 15 holes..Save your money and go to Bowling Green..

The rangers were very nice but didnt keep the pace of play up..

Played the course last week. It was in good shape. Course has very large green and is enjoyable for the average golfer. Rangers were great. For a video review of the course and pictures of each hole visit our site:

If you want to be eaten alive by black flies go play golf here its a nice course but the bugs drove me nuts and my wife couldnt take it they drew blood thats how bad it was spend your hard earned money somewhere else where you can enjoy a good game of golf

snobs run this place. i will never play it again. rangers a pushy and obnoxious. there was no one in front or behind us and they still felt the need to play forecaddie. cut back on the rudeness and rangers and they can cut greens fees. it's supposed to be a friendly leaisurely game but at black bear it's cram em the course and make em run. the rangers detracted from the day so much i forgot the course.

This course has without question the most pushiest rangers of all the NJ public courses. My 4-some and I lagged behind the group ahead of us due to some lost balls, and the ranger kept bugging us, thus ruining what was supposed to be a relaxing round of golf. The funny thing is that there was no one behind us. We weren't slowing anyone down at all! As far as the course itself, its a decent, fairly challenging mountain course with a nice clubhouse. But those rangers ruined my experience and I will never go again. I tell all my friends at work not to play there and recommend Skyview instead (the rangers there are extremely nice and not pushy).

Don't go out there within 7-10 days of the twice-a-year aeration of the greens and fairways, it's like puting on a beach.

I play this track 4-10 times a year and I love it. It is a scenic gem, particularly in the early fall. The course is very well maintained and the greens are excellent. The over all layout and setup is challenging, but fair. Not so tough that you get discouraged, but if you go to sleep out there you will be hunting in the forest for your next shot.

The back nine is set high in the hills, making for some spectacular elevation changes and views. The greens vary from subtle to multi-tiered, with a couple of Pinehurst#2 style upside down saucers for good measure.
