Ridge is a really fun and unique course in the middle of nowhere. It’s a modern layout with plenty of room in the landing areas. Some of the greens are a bit extreme, but still fair if not above the hole. Some great views on the top of the mountain on the back 9.

Great course, sorta a hidden gem. Can be challenging to get a good free time here if not a local. Course is well kept and has 3 separate 9’s. Grass range and putting area well kept. Staff are alright but not the nicest.

One of the best driving ranges and facilities I’ve seen. It’s a super difficult course tee-green, but the greens aren’t as punishing as the rest. High grass and long holes might challenge you, but it’s a good place to play.

A good Monmouth county public gem. Best kept public course in the area. A few doglegs that don’t do to well design wise for hitters over 220, but a course that’s fun to play all the time. Not difficult, but a good round to be played and good place to be.

How we rank
This ranking uses each golfer’s scenery rating, on a 0.5–5 scale. Scenery is the scenery score golfers give when they log a round. Every golfer counts once per course: repeat rounds are averaged first, then the course score is the average across golfers. A course needs scenery ratings from at least 5 different golfers. Ties go to the course with more golfers, then the higher Course Vaults score. Only open courses with a published Course Vaults score (at least 5 explicit ratings) are eligible, and a page is published only when at least 5 courses qualify. City pages include courses within about 25 miles of Princeton Junction, so nearby suburbs can appear. Rankings refresh about hourly.
