Course was well maintained, greens were running super smooth, nice fairways and rough. Bunkers were even raked that morning. Staff was kind and helpful. Range was also very nice. Played 7/26/23

I went here for a meeting. The building is hard to locate if you're a first timer like me. It's perched atop a hill that I can only image would be impossible to climb in the winter. The food that was served was deliciously toasted garlic bread, salad w/3 unlabeled dressings, green beans, mashed potatoes that were a bit runny and some type of chicken with a red tomato type sauce that someone said had rice in it. I definitely was NOT thrilled about the food. The only drinks served was coffee and water. Nothing else was offered. Dessert was missing as well. For this to be a country club house, it leaves a lot to be desired.

Overall the entire place is severely outdated and poorly kept. The course is overrun with weeds and in walkable/drivable paths. The club house hasn’t seen an upgrade since the 80s at least. And the staff at the charity event I attended last year had no idea what they were doing. The course ended up covered in garbage and litter because there wasn’t a trash can in sight.

Pool area and locker rooms need updates. Paint on the back of the black chairs was peeling and stuck to our backs and clothes. Lifeguards and staff were friendly and accommodating.

Staff were great very attentive and cordial. The course is very challenging and was in excellent shape. My wife and i played because my dad was a caddie there back in the 1930s. I know the course was redone since then but it was neat to know we were walking some of the same ground he did. We also ate dinner there that night and were very pleased with the food as well as the service. We definately recommend Short Hills.

Course is average at best. Restaurant is a far cry from back in the day. On top of that they usually have available about half of what is on the menu. Management is running this club into the ground like it's their job. They are more interested in finding new members than taking care of their current members. I joined the end of June a few years ago, received half off the amenities package due to joining halfway through the year. This year I have decided to find a new club and knew I was cancelling so I paid half of the amenities package for half of the year, but they insist I owe for the entire year of 2019. When I mentioned this to management it took them 3 months to give me an answer. After 3 months Jennifer's answer was "this has been implemented years ago." If that is true why did it need to be discuss with the board, not once, but multiple times, and how come last year when I asked the same question I was never given an answer and the woman I spoke with said this has never come up, let me ask the board. They make the rules as they go. If you are one to board a sinking ship, this is the club for you! I have played golf here for just about my entire life and to be honest it is depressing to watch what management is doing. Save yourself the headache and join another club.

Don't play this course, don't join this club. The golf course is in very bad condition, it needs a lot of work. Tee boxes are in bad shape. Bunkers are unplayable, not raked, grass and weeds growing in them. Greens are patchy and spotty. Very disappointed, not what I expected from a private country club. I have played many more public golf courses that are much better.
