I had a tee time at 2:30pm on Saturday. I went inside to check in and the guy was very nice and helpful. However, the course ranger was annoying and confrontational for no reason. Why is he pairing up groups that were booked 30 minutes apart? There’s no one on the course anyway. Instead of enhancing the experience, he seemed more interested in hassling groups and creating tension. It put a damper on what should have been a relaxing day of golf. Also, I thought there were new owners and they were fixing this place up. The place is still a dog track but with a few less trees. I thought I was at Belmar Beach on 14. And the tee box on 16 had tire marks on it. There are much better-maintained courses in the area with nicer rangers. Won’t be back.

Haven't played golf in a number of years and Gamblers Ridge provided the perfect venue to get back into the game. Challenging but fair and offers various tee boxes for every skill level of the golfer!? Also reasonable green fees.

Played here on Saturday. Was looking forward to it as I haven't played this course since late last year. I had heard about how the new owners are making improvements. Tee time was a little after 11. Was notified early that morning that there was a frost delay of about 30 minutes. It happens. I appreciated the early heads up too. That was nice. We teed off right around 30 minutes after my original time. Right away, I noticed the improved course conditions. The fairways and rough were in great shape, as were the greens. What I didn't like was that as we reached the #2 tee box, there were still 2 groups waiting to tee off. The course was so backed up. Every hole was like this (about 20+ minutes for 3 golfers per hole). We ended up leaving after 9 holes because the guy who drove couldn't spend 6 hours on the course. If I decide to come back I hope this doesn't happen again. I don't know if this was a few slow groups holding everyone up, or if they are just overbooking. Hopefully they get this straightened out because nice course or not, nobody likes waiting 10 minutes on every tee box.

It's a little over an hour from where I live in Palisades Park, but the golf course is great. Even in winter, the greens, fairways and bunkers are well-maintained, and the staff are all friendly. The green fees are reasonable as well. I highly recommend it.

Course is in the best condition I’ve ever seen it, the new owners and grounds keepers have done a fantastic job with the fairways and greens. Mike checked in a few times during the round, it was nice to have a friendly figure check in and drive around the course grabbing trash, you can tell how much he cares. Looking forward to many future rounds here
