    Unfortunately, my experience at Pine Brook Golf Course was far from enjoyable. Despite informing an employee that it was my first time playing, I was met with little assistance or guidance. Instead, I was simply told to "have fun" and left to figure things out on my own. To make matters worse, I was later harassed by another employee about the fact that my group had not yet completed all 18 holes - despite the fact that we were still on hole 16. This behavior was completely unacceptable and left me feeling both frustrated and uncomfortable. Overall, I would not recommend Pine Brook Golf Course to anyone seeking a fun and stress-free golfing experience. The lack of helpful staff and unprofessional behavior from certain employees only served to detract from what should have been an enjoyable day on the greens.

    Great county course for the price, Matinee is literally $20 for 9 holes! Can’t beat the value for a chance to work on your short game with this small course or to teach others to play without the game becoming intimidating! It’s Never too busy, always a great game improver, give it a try!

    Golf course was okay. There was one person on the staff who rides around in a golf cart and came charging in yelling at my group and i about us not following the rules when a member of their staff was the one to tell us to ride together until they can get another cart. That member of the staff was very unprofessional, and rude. There were other ways to have a conversation.

    2 Stars because it's usually a quick round. Bottom barrel greenskeeping! Greens are like fairways. So slow a 30 foot plus putt is almost unreachable. Leaves everywhere and I don't even want to mention the state of the bunkers. If I retired to a trailer park with a golf course, Pine Brook is what I imagine it would be like

    Nice little par 61 golf course with 5 par 4 and 1 par 5 (the rest are par 3). It's got an interesting combination of large greens, undulated greens and everything in between. Some of the fairways are pretty tight and do not allow for too much mistake. Scoring is not a given there. Decent pace of play most of the time. Friendly staff.

    Staff was rude and not much help, they made reservations for tee times with carts included days in advance and there was about 4 or 5 groups of 4 that was told to wait for carts or walk. How do you have a golf course and run out of carts for about 20 players, very disappointed.

    Good local county course. Quick play turnaround in about 3 hrs for a round. The only issue was when we went, the tee boxes were condensed to only the red tees making it feel like more of a "pitch and putt" course.

    I dont usually post but this was too negligent and dangerous not to. On Monday morning I was playing a round by myself and was paired with a father and son who were walking. The son was walking across the bridge to the right of the 9th hole and all of a sudden he is running and screaming and ripping his clothes off. After all the craziness settled, he had 50+ stings that we could see. He said his pull cart hit the bridge or a tree branch and it must have disrupted the hive. The reason for the review is that the father and son obviously left, and I moved on to the next hole. The maintenance guy pulls up on the 10th hole and starts to tell us that they knew about the hive but couldnt get to it so there quote, "nothing we could do". I can think of a couple of things you lazy idiot. 1, call a professional to remove the hive. 2, rope that area off. There is another very easy way to go on the left side of the hole. If that kid would have been allergic who knows what happens. We had a feeling right away that they knew about it because while it was happening the other maintenance guy in front of the clubhouse sitting in his cart yells over to us "is that bees?". Felt really bad for that guy but at least he wasnt allergic and walked away. Cant believe the maintenance guy thought there was nothing wrong with telling us he did nothing.

    The staff is very rude, old, and constantly aggravated. because they are miserable with their lives they tend to be rude. If your under the age of 40 and able to walk properly this probably isn’t the course for you. Guy with glasses is a creep at the front desk.

    Just had a horrible experience at the golf course! I am a beginner and I went there with my two sons. The guy in the glasses was very rude and constantly harassed us, asking to leave because we were not up to speed, especially in the beginning. When I told him that if I leave he would have to refund me my money, to which he responded that no refunds are allowed. The way he was talking to me was very disturbing and rude, totally unexpected from a golf course employee!

👍👍 Held our 1st Annual Megan Schulman Memorial Foundation golf outing here on June 13, 2022. The staff was nothing less than amazing! From catering to the pro shop everyone was helpful.
