Pine Barrens Golf Club occupies 420 acres of natural terrain within the protected New Jersey Pine Barrens. Designer Eric Bergstol routed the course through the region's native sand, indigenous vegetation and stands of pine, leaving the surrounding landscape as a central feature of the round.
The bentgrass greens are large and undulating, averaging more than 7,500 square feet, and present a challenge to experienced players. Five sets of bentgrass tees on every hole accommodate a wide range of abilities, with the course measuring from roughly 5,100 to 7,125 yards.
