This is a workout. After the front 9 you will be going up and down the ski slope until you finish it off with a huge shot down the mountain to the 18th basket (which a lot of people think is a practice basket). IMPORTANT: Unlike the Main (green) course which is playable all year round, it is difficult to play this unless your going in the spring, or it is mowed properly before hand. The grass at full summer length can reach chest high or higher. It wont be fun to search for your discs or even the baskets then.

First course I played after leaving oklahoma. Though a bit scattered based on maps, the black Diamond course is so much fun to play. I love that the skiing aspect is implemented into the course. The 18th hole is a blast because it truly tests your drive. The wooded areas are so well mapped out and it also makes for a great hike.

Love this course! The Main/Green course winds its way thru the woods around the ski slope with a fair share of rocky paths, tight lines, and elevation changes. This calls for a range of plastic and shots challenging players of all levels. Installing the last tee pads with new signs in 2023 make this is one of the top courses in Northern NJ.

Great course. Very wooded so you need to make some tight shots. The distance for the green course is not too long I feel that its perfect based on the elevations of this course. Its up one side a mountain and down the other. Pretty good signage. Well kept, however only the first few are built tees the rest are natural. Great conditions all year round except for early spring its pretty muddy.

great course for accurate drives and creative approaches. for a course that is all in the woods and appears intimatading if you get off the fairway, i find that most holes are fairly forgiving for getting a good shot back on course or even to the hole if you are confident with your hook or hyzer shots. low drives are a must since most holes have a canopy or long branches. hole 17short / 9long is legendary

found some markers, but being from out-of -state it was hard to play the front 9 with natural takeoffs,it was hard to navigate/see them. the back 9 was better but still i needed to do alot of backtracking to find holes as a first-timer, and with the elevation, you better bring water and an energy bar.
not an easy walk wear your favorite hikers if you dont pay attention you wll easily roll an ankle.
once you are in the parking lot of Campgaw Ski Hill the first hole is at the way left of the ski hill as you look up the hill (that was hard to find) best i had played in the area it was awesome.
rock and trees as the best guardians ever.

Pros: -Tees are clear even though the rest of the course is covered in snow and ice, someone really cares about this course
-Awesome use of elevation and local landscape, accuracy is at a premium
-Used a wide variety of different shots
-Holes are short, but challenging due to trees, elevation, and boulders
-Hole 17 is my favorite hole of the course. The best opportunity to throw huge down hill bombs.
-Great cardio workout walking up the mountain
Cons: -I'm fine with playing on gravel tees (I prefer rubber) but some of the holes did not have obvious tee boxes which made them hard to spot for a first timer playing by themselves
-Not all the signs were in place. Also the signs are temporary. Would be nice to have permanent signs with next tee markers for all holes
-There are no trash cans on the course what-so-ever. The course is riddled with beer cans and food wrappers.
Other Thoughts: I have a great deal of fun playing this course. I mainly used my mids which was good for me as I could use the practice. I also found that the front nine was hard to navigate with out a map. The back nine flowed much better than the front. I am going to bring friends here and recommend it to others, as it is one of the best courses in New Jersey. I also have to come back and try the Mighty Gaw when it's set up, I'm really looking forward to that.
