East Orange Golf Course

About East Orange Golf Course

You'll find this municipal track tucked into the hills of Short Hills, offering surprisingly rolling terrain that feels more private than public given its upscale surroundings. The course takes advantage of the natural elevation changes throughout the property, creating interesting lies and approach shots that demand more thought than your typical muni layout. While the conditioning can be inconsistent depending on the season and budget constraints, the routing flows well through mature trees and offers enough variety to keep you engaged for all 18 holes. At 3.8 stars from over 300 reviews, this clearly isn't destination golf, but it serves its purpose as an accessible option in an area where private clubs dominate the landscape. The walking-friendly design and reasonable green fees make it a solid choice for getting your golf fix without breaking the bank, especially considering you're playing in one of New Jersey's most affluent communities. Just don't expect championship conditions, think of it as honest golf that won't embarrass you but won't wow you either.
