Pinch Brook Golf Course in Florham Park may be a short course, but it should not be underestimated. The layout offers all the challenges of a championship course conveniently wrapped in an executive-length course. Water hazards come into play on nearly every hole, including a pond on the seventh that is shaped like the state of New Jersey. The elevated and undulating greens putt fast and true. They present a test for even the most seasoned golfers. The par-3 holes are particularly tough. Most of them feature strategically placed bunkers fiercely guarding the double-tiered greens, that or a forced carry. The golf course is great for honing your short game skills or for squeezing in a quick but challenging round. Pinch Brook G.C. is hailed by locals as the best short course in northern New Jersey.

Pricey but a nice round

Challenging little course. More than an executive, but great for those of us who are not big hitters.

Poorlly Maintained

It costs almost $90 tonplay this par 65

Many of the bunkers do not have sand and none of the fairways have. had the leaves blown off so its possible to lose balls on the fairway

for that much money it should be maintained a little better

Do better Indigo Golf

Nice & Enjoyable

Very good alternative (practice) for high/mid handicappers with 7(!) par 3's. Slow pace/slow foursomes..... can use a reminder from a ranger.
Good overall condition and easy layout.....

Terrific County Course

We have played Pinch Brook almost a dozen times in the last 2 years. And the staff is great. Even at 6:15 in the morning when we were all trying to wake up. From the Pro Shop staff, to the starters, and to the guys on the lawn care beat everyone has been professional AND personable. It has become one of our Go To courses and will remain so for sometime I would say.
