The best golf courses in Princeton, New Jersey

“From tee to green, one cannot help being captured by the traditional and yet interesting design and routing, as well as the varied topography. The course is difficult and challenging, especially the greens, but not unfair.”

“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.”

“Great course. Open layout and semi-hilly makes it challenging. Not too many flat lies and no holes that are given birdies, so you have to fight for your score. The greens aren’t fast sometimes, but easy to read and flat-ish. Also had a career back nine here so maybe I’m biased”

“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.”

“They removed a ton of trees which really allows for better views and firmer conditions. A solid Raynor that will keep improving with time. Drainage is a real issue here, every time it rains the course struggles mightily.”

“A really cool modern golf course that is always kept it good shape. Can play really long from back tees. Very hard to walk due to the layout being around the Old.”

“Springdale is a decent course all around. Nothing spectacular, but everything’s pretty good. A solid range and practice facility and an old school golf course. A bit short for the modern game, but still fun for all skill levels. Conditions usually are good, not great.”

“Great course that makes you really play the course and not just mindlessly hit your shots. The rough and bunkers are real obstacles: if you want to score then you’ll have to keep it in the fairway.”

“Course was in decent shape, still played firm despite it being in the middle of a hot rainy spring/early summer. Greens were a bit slow but the layout is good enough to overcome rather uninteresting greens. Really fun risk reward shots and some cool views with the lack of trees.”

“Facility is pretty nice but the course just does not do it for me. Has a modern feel but no real theme or soul to the layout. Conditions are average and the green complexes are uninteresting.”

“Jasna is cool new school golf course. A few interesting holes, good mix of Par 3’s. 2 drivable Par 4’s. Has the unnatural look a lot of the TPC’s have. Greens weren’t the quickest but they were smooth.”

“Forest definitely the best at FE. Conditions are spotty, but the layout is cool. A good mix of hilly/flat, uphill/downhill, long/short holes.”

“A very friendly laid back small club. The course is very flat and sits on a very below average piece of land. While the front 9 starts strong, the stretch of 6-9 tends to blend together. Lots of tree lined straightaway par 4s.”
