Enjoy an anytime foursome (green fees only) at Ballyowen Golf Club.

Rated the #1 Public Golf Course in New Jersey by Golfweek, PubLinks, Zagat, New Jersey Monthly, NJ Golf and The Jersey Golfer, and 15th among the 50 Most Popular Courses in the US by Zagat, Ballyowen has received outstanding critical acclaim since opening in June 1998.



Situated on 250 sprawling acres atop a plateau, Ballyowen is surrounded by rolling farmland and craggy knolls, overlooking the spirited Walkill River. Virtually treeless with plush green fairways, Ballyowen reflects the Celtic-style characteristics of this most unique golf site.

Ballyowen has been masterfully sculpted out of the local landscape by renowned golf course architect, Roger Rulewich. Rulewich, an understudy of Robert Trent Jones for 34 years, created a links-style layout that provides a test for championship golfers, as well as a multitude of teeing areas to offer a fair challenge to golfers of all skill levels.

Greens and tees occupy high ground where the golfer can gaze in all directions and appreciate the panoramic beauty of the mountains of NJ's Sussex Skylands. Fairways wind serpentine through fescue-covered hillocks and knolls.

The links-style layout provides golfers with a kaleidoscopic array of verdant fairways, pristine white bunkering and wheat-yellow native rough grasses. Tee shots flow into unique valleys amidst towering mounds. Glimpses of surrounding golf holes recede and vanish as golfers meander from fairway to fairway. Interestingly, the 360-degree visual perspective is relieved only by play of the individual holes. Beware the player who pays too much attention to the scenery...each hole requires skillful navigation!

As evidenced by the numerous accolades earned by Ballyowen to date, the commitment to quality extends all the way from golf course conditioning to the level of service provided by the staff.
