very hilly course and an excellent change of pace from flat boring courses. if you are from Union County and not using the county card to play the three UC courses, you are missing out. GHGC also has a single nine thats great for twilight golf. if its hot, you will need a cart unless you are part goat, but thats half the fun: the elevation. old school clubhouse to have a beer, which is slated to be renovated to hold NJGA. support your local courses or they might go away.

If you can hit the ball straight and a good amount of yardage, your fine

the terrain makes it so you want your ball to be elevated most of the time

As a young golfer in high school, this course would be good for a nice, quick, short, round. The terrain makes it tougher then it looks.

very nice people working.

Layout,

not maintained well, fairways chewed up

Decent layout, lots of elevated greens. Tends to get crowded on weekends and lots of beginner golfers with the extra nine. Fairways and tee boxes get very chewed up.

Well Kept

Bad Tee time system

I always find myself coming back to this course. It is a great place to get your game back into shape. The people are very nice and there aren't many hackers out there. Most of the time, I go very early by myself and wind up with a good person to play with. On price and you can play the whole day.

Good

A graet tract - some terrific holes. Very nice scenery.

Hole #12: Too badd they can't get rid of the sink whole which has turned this scenic par 5 into a par 4. Additionally, due to the amount of shade, several t-boxes and greens are not always in the best of shape. Have shown much improvement this yr (03) regardless of all the rain we've had.

A very nice course. Let's hope they keep it that way and not fall back into the old habits before the renovation. Each week there seems to be asthetic improvements such as white fences, new cart paths, etc.... Greens are much better this yr.

Customer Service

Very friendly staff.

Clubhouse facilities are very old but they serve the purpose.

Hilly terrain. The first hole of each of the 3 9s are good, I like the North 9 (?) the most - steep drop, big dog right. Some outstanding par 4s. Pretty wide open and little water, you won't loses many balls here. Very accessable, right off the Parkway near the Union tolls. Total of 27 holes, mix and match your 9s for variety if you play there a couple of times.

Some holes (most of the par 3s and two of the par 4s) are so basic it seems like someone realized they were shy a couple of holes so they squeezed them in there. But the rest are so good you just blink past the bad holes and get on with the great ones. Unfortunately, the South 9 (?) has three of the worst holes at 6, 7, and 8. 6 is an iffy par 4, 7 is a par 3 that you would make in your back yard and 8 is only a little better. Then 9 is a great hole with lots of personality. Go figure.

I loved this course. The shame is, it could be better. Some of the holes are really terrific, challenging and pretty. Teeing off 75 feet above or below a green with a big dog right or left is common. Others seem to just be thrown out there to round out 18 holes. More positives than negatives though.

Friendly folks, not much going on in the tiny clubhouse.

Hills that keep you guessing.

Greens are very eractic.

Very hilly course with suspect greens. None of the thr greens match up with putting surface. Course is set up very nice with some challenging holes. Not too many straight par 4's were you can just shoo it ou there, and the par 5's are reachable in 2 if you have the muscle. Par 3's need some work. Over all a enjoyable Union county course. Still don't understand the tee time system though. You can easily walk on, playing the 9 hole and the front 9 of the 18.
