Harbor Pines Golf Club is world class, 4-star, daily fee golf in southern New Jersey just minutes south of Atlantic City’s casinos and boardwalk…every-one's favorite place to play – rated best course conditions in South Jersey plus unequalled personalized service. While golf is the premier attraction at Harbor Pines Golf Club, the complex also offers itself as a venue for weddings, parties and business meetings hosted in its spectacular 20,000 sq. ft. clubhouse.

Rated 4 stars in Golf Digest's Best Places. and one of the top 150 courses in the U.S. for course conditions, Harbor Pines is an obvious choice as a “must-play” during a golf outing in the Atlantic City area. Golf For Women Magazine rates the course as one of the "Top 100 women-friendly courses in the U.S. The layout winds through 520 acres of dense pine forest, which means the course rarely seems crowded; you’ll feel as if you're playing each hole entirely on your own. Play Harbor Pines Golf Course from the championship tees and it’s a toughie; play it from one of the more forward tees and you’ll enjoy is a rewarding round of golf.

Course Specifications:

The 18-hole, championship layout at Harbor Pines Golf Club in Egg Harbor Township, plays some 6,827 yards of golf from the longest tees for a par of 72. The course rating is 72.3 with a slope of 129 on Bent grass. Five sets of tees make play enjoyable for players of all levels of skill. From the White tees it plays 6,119 yards while still maintaining its par of 72. From the Red tees the course plays just 5,099 yards. The course was designed by Stephen Kay and opened in 1996.

Green Fees: $65 to $115 depending upon the day of the week)

I suggest you try the Marriott Seaview Golf Resort and Spa in Atlantic City. It’s only minutes away from Harbor Pines and has two championship golf courses on site, which means you can play three courses, including Harbor Pines. Compare Prices
