Forest Hill Field Club sits in Bloomfield, New Jersey, occupying rolling terrain in the northern part of the state. The course was designed by A.W. Tillinghast, the prolific architect whose portfolio includes Winged Foot, Baltusrol, and Bethpage Black. Tillinghast worked extensively in the New York metropolitan area during the 1920s, and Forest Hill reflects his characteristic approach to routing over natural contours and creating strategic interest through bunkering and green complexes. The layout moves across varied topography typical of northern New Jersey, with elevation changes that provide both visual interest and strategic challenge. Tillinghast's design philosophy emphasized shot values and variety, and the course features the kind of thoughtful hole sequencing and green contouring that mark his work from this period. The property's mature tree-lined corridors and natural land movement give the course a traditional parkland character. Forest Hill Field Club has served as a private club for nearly a century, maintaining its role as a neighborhood institution in the Bloomfield area. The course represents one of many Tillinghast designs in New Jersey and the broader region, part of the architect's substantial contribution to golf in the Northeast during the golden age of course architecture. The club continues to operate as a family-oriented private facility, offering golf and other recreational amenities to its membership.
