Greate Bay CC (Private)
Somers Point, NJ
Philadelphia Inquirer Review, 2011: "Greate Bay was designed by Willie Park Jr., who won the British Open three times in the 1880's and then went on to be a top golf-course architect, creating, among others, the Olympia Fields Country Club in Chicago, a frequent pro golf tour stop.
"It is an understated course, a beautiful one," said local sports radio jock Donohue, who mentioned that local celebrities such as Flyers executive Bob Clarke and announcer Steve Coates often play the 6,700-yard layout.
The club has a 50,000-square-foot racquet and fitness complex, which offers summer memberships for $395 that allows for reduced greens-fee play after 2 p.m. Sundays through Thursdays. "
Best Bar Nearby: There's a Pub & Grill on-site with a piano bar.
