The Pro Shop is a small decent space and clean. The layout is neat and organized. The counter attendant was friendly and helpful. A small selection of attire and equipment for every size and category of golfer. Plenty of Picatinny Arsenal gear for your liking. This course is not open year-round and closes in the Fall (exact date TBD). Briefly talked to the Golf Pro and he appears to be knowledgeable and nice...unlike others who try to act like "Shooter McGavin"!!

Since they are government workers, you are not treated as a customer. They do not honor your tee times. If you check in early instead of using the practice area to warm up they will force you to head out immediately. I think that comes down from "on-high" because most of the workers in the shop are genuinely very good people. It is just not a customer comes first place. They know the government won't insist on quality performance. The course is in theory easy to maintain, it is pretty flat and easy to keep cut. However they have extremely high rough and no graduated rough. So a lot of fun is taken out of the experience, literally one inch off the fairway and your ball can be buried under thick, six inch rough. Most of the members are very unhappy about the maintenance of the rough and fairways. Most fairways are tight, thin, weak grass, there are very few places where there is that spongy fairway grass that private sector courses are required to provide. I will give credit to a drainage project undertaken about 3 years ago, it was extremely successful.

This review will be focused on the driving range section but I will say that I appreciate that they…read morehave a multitude of different activities you can do depending on your interests. I normally go to a certain range not too far from this location but the Toptracer digital flight tracking machines had peaked my interest. While my main focus is on ball striking, I wanted to go the extra mile and utilize Toptracer to get an idea of distance gaping my woods/irons. THE EXPERIENCE Things may have changed from some previous reviews but the golf mats were perfectly fine. There weren't any glaring wear issues and I've definitely seen worse. The golf balls were fine and still had dimples left so no complaints on that end as well. The real interest and determining factor of my experience was TopTracer Technology. With the help of the digital flight tracking machines that were installed in every stall, I was able to get some raw data that helped me distance gap my clubs. Keep in mind that all the data is relative to the conditions (especially cold conditions) but I was able to get the answers I was looking for. Toptracer is able to tell you carry, total distance, launch angle, and other useful information to help optimize your clubs. I personally used the data to see how I hit my multiple drivers and find which one I hit best. It was mission accomplished. Of note, there is a small practice green with some chipping mats surrounding it. There are maybe two holes that you can use for putting and the rest are mostly for chipping targets. OTHER INFO -In addition to golf, they have pickleball courts/mini golf/paintball/turfed field and other offerings to keep you interested -The cost was marginally higher compared to your typical range but in my opinion worth it. The small bucket cost 12 dollars here compared to 10 dollars to a normal one without the digital flight tracking. FINAL THOUGHTS While Anchor Golf is a little farther from the driving range I used to use, it's well worth it for the experience to see your raw data. I would recommend giving this place a try!

Warm and friendly staff, helpful anytime we needed them. Now the bad... and it's a lot. Many sand traps were marked "ground under repair"... full dirt and some rather large rocks. I'd say this is a short term thing but from reading other reviews it's been like this for a long time. Is it THAT HARD to bring in some truckloads of nice white sand, fix drainage issues, grab some shovels and make some distinct borders on the traps and upgrade the place ? Next are the fairways.. they all have HUNDREDS of poorly (or not at all) repaired divots... days, weeks or months worth of rounds.... come on, have some staff go out with carts and buckets of seed-filled soil and repair this nonsense ! I've seen better on $35 muni courses. Put buckets or containers of soil and seed on each cart !!! Many high end courses send out a team every night that starts on the first hole after the last group tees off and fills all the divots to preserve and recreate the fairways. Next let's talk about the signs directing the carts off the fairway to the paved paths.... I've never seen them so far away from the greens in my 30-plus years of avid golf.... on some holes you weren't allowed to drive within 100 yards of the green !!! That's ridiculous, especially given the huge divot problem affecting each and every fairway on the course. While we are on the topic of cart paths, there's some locations where there's a 30-40 foot walk up a grassy hill to get to the tee boxes... that's just wrong and easily corrected ! Lastly, there's no GPS on the carts. For a high daily fee course that positions itself as a deluxe resort course ($110 for the round) that's just cheap, pathetic and inexcusable. There's many $50 courses that have GPS on their carts. In summary the scenery and layout is nice, but it's worth $50 not $110. I don't know how the other courses on the property are, but I'm not sure I'm willing to throw this much money away again to try another. I don't mind paying big $$ for a top notch experience. Over the years I've played Doral ($250), Sawgrass ($600), Pinehurst #2 ($485) and many others, but this course seems to be just a money grab without the substance.

There is a mixture of holes throughout the course. Some tee shots you hit downhill and some are uphill. Most of the greens are smaller than your average size green so make sure you are hitting your irons straight. The 18th hole is one of the most beautiful finishing holes I have played. I look forward to returning to MRGC one day.

In the beginning planning stages, Jackie and Tim were so great about accommodating our crazy schedules and answering our many questions. They were so patient and very helpful in providing suggestions and feedback when we needed it. They allowed us to "drop by" at all hours so we could plan for each of our vendors and even set up the ballroom one day with all the tables so we could really visualize how the room would look. The day of the wedding was more than we ever could have imagined. It really exceeded my expectations in every way. The food was absolutely spectacular. Tim and the chef really went above and beyond to ensure our menu was exactly what we wanted and each dish was impeccable. We had guests commenting on how it was the best "wedding food" they have ever had and felt like they had a meal from a 5-star restaurant! The service was more than we would have ever imagined. Each staff member was very professional and helpful in making sure our guests were very well taken care of. We had a guest mention that his glass wasn't empty all night because his waitress was on top of making sure he was so well cared for! The bar staff was amazing - they were engaging and professional and really had hustle to make sure our guests didn't have to wait around for a cocktail. It was most appreciated! The appetizer stations were set up so beautifully as was the dessert display ! My husband was totally blown away with the dessert feast, it was incredible. They were able to adjust our flowers from different areas to accent the tables and did it so discreetly I had NO idea it even happened until I walked in the dessert room! We had an ice cream bar as well and the service was amazing - it was a great feature to the dessert area. Tim and Katherine were so detailed oriented and made sure everything ran flawlessly from start to finish. The newly renovated club is absolutely stunning!! Its so elegant and modern - very light and bright. The outdoor terrace bar is spectacular - it's huge and unlike anything I've ever seen before. Its so well crafted and has details that are a real standout. Katherine really took care of every little element that I hadn't even thought of - the smallest touches made the biggest difference! The staff put together a really cute candy bar display. I was out on the golf course taking photos and a staff member stuck by my side to make sure I was well hydrated and didn't need anything, food, water, etc. She was able to grab my husband a beer to keep him going through photos! It was a really nice touch! Bottom line - MCGC exceeded ALL my expectations in everyday. The staff really went above and beyond for us and our guests. I would absolutely do another event here.

Staff was exceptional and Head Pro Ty Hayes was an absolute pleasure. Driving range is Irons only as it would land balls down the hill into the holes. Practice green is small but serviceable. Course itself is built among countless old houses and it is in a word TIGHT & greens are SMALL. Like playing in a bowling alley and hitting to postage stamps. Course was very well manicured with greens smooth and relatively fast. Extremely hilly that would make it very difficult to walk but sure enough many members were there pulling their carts up and down hills. My only knock would be that there were not many memorable holes along the way and some designs are ridiculously unfair based on trees overhanging fairways with NO room to even get to elevated small greens. I was a guest so I'm not going to complain but thought I'd be fair in my assessment. Appreciate the invite and would hesitate to play here again.

I attended the summer camp, where we got instructions in arts and crafts, tennis, swimming, golf, and a lovely canned female provided upstairs. The memories created by the staff -- whether in the restaurant or out in the sports areas -- created memories that I will cherish forever.

When Montclair GC 'took over' Rock Spring GC nearby, it opened a chance for members of both clubs…read moreto use both facilities. One advantage MGC has is two golf courses, so you can try 54 different holes among the two clubs. Dad's the second longest running member at RSGC, when he read that MGC was having a free wine tasting, we were in! The wine tasting area was set up on the outside patio, thankfully with a generous overhang-because this was the Friday night a few weeks ago when we had the unreal thunderstorm that lasted hours. Even so, we managed to try a wide variety of wines, generous pours, no limits. Terrific! Off we went inside for dinner, and my 'retro' wedge salad was somewhat modified and updated. The complimentary olive, celery stalk, radish, and sliced cucumber tray was pure 'retro'! I followed with swordfish which was tasty. Around the table were two veal chops and a petite filet. The two veal chops were both said to be the best anyone has ever had, and the petite filet was really good, according to my girlfriend. One thing-these are steakhouse prices, the 10oz filet was $47-and like a steakhouse, everything is ala carte-sides are extra. We had lyonnaise potatoes and they were tasty, hot, and salty. Our waiter was friendly and very helpful. So solid four starts-and the setting is worth five!

First time doing that and I realized how much I love playing, how you can get a good sweat on and how much I like being in nature. I actually realized out on a course my current off the rack clubs probably weren't the right ones for me. That brought me to finding Tim Mosel on Yelp of course. Denville is a ride from where I live at The Shore but SOOOOOO GLAD I made the trip. Tim is a MASTER at his craft. A 'scientist' if you will. He has a laptop and will have you hit different clubs into a net while some type of golf laser gives him MULTIPLE numbers from launch angle, topspin, club head speed etc. He then mathematically knows what to build FOR YOU according to those numbers. I had a 'full set' built (and will update when I pick up and play a few rounds with them) but he also doesn't force/push you into additional clubs for his financial gain. He actually recommended that I don't necessarily NEED fairway woods (theres normally 3 of those) and I can always add them if I felt I needed them. Also he's VERY personable and a joy to chat with. And his prices aren't as high as I was expecting so I was VERY happy with my total! GO THERE even if you are a hack golfer like myself.
