Harbor Pines Golf Club spares no expense in offering one of the best groomed courses anywhere in Southern New Jersey.  The club is situated very conveniently on Ocean Heights Blvd. in Egg Harbor Township off Exit 36 of the Garden State Parkway. just a short 15 – 20 minute drive from Atlantic City’s beaches and casinos.

Home grown designer Stephen Kay routed a fine layout through the dense pines and around 17 acres of lakes. The course is the epicenter of an upscale real estate project comprising some 6500 acres. On the mostly flat terrain, the course features huge impeccably groomed bent grass greens with modest slopes, and wide bent grass fairways. Water comes into play on no less than eight holes and, though the bunkers are large, there is less sand here than you might expect. On a layout measuring from 5,099 to a modest 6,827 yards from the tips, golfers of all stripes can enjoy their rounds. This is a very modern course in every sense of the word except it has no tricks. It is a throwback to good old-fashioned "what you see is what you get" golf. Five sets of tees testify that no level of golfer was left out of the design plan.

The front side meanders through pristine pine forest and offers some outstanding holes including my favorite, the almost 90 degree dogleg right 400-yard 4th. It is followed by a much longer par 4 5th which doglegs right around a lake. The backside features a very short par 4 requiring a water carry off the tee, a brutishly long par 4 17th, and a short par 5 finishing hole aimed at bringing smiles to all golfers. Harbor Pines Golf Club offers an elegant 20,000-square foot clubhouse, excellent food, and fine instruction at a top quality practice facility

» Five sets of tees
enable golfers to enjoy the course at their own level of challenge — from 5099 yards to 6827 yards. Tee areas are unusually large offering the opportunity for varied tee positions that lengthen or shorten the hole and provide different playing angles. In addition, the large tees on all par 3’s prevent excessive wear in any one area and provide the golfer consistent quality conditions.

» 12 ponds & 17 acres of water
strategically located to add a picturesque charm and a challenge for every golfer. Only two ponds require a carry shot — most run laterally along the fairways to heighten the challenge and the beauty of the course without unfairly testing the average golfer

» Outstanding Course Conditions
Harbor Pines features generous fairways and short rough reminiscent of Augusta National. The finest irrigation system and course management program that exists in golf today is at Harbor Pines. Wall-to-wall triple row sprinklers create conditions that rank with the most prestigious courses in the world.

» Large undulating greens
offer opportunities for varied pin placements that add interest and new challenge to every round. The average green size is in excess of 6500 square feet.

» Distinctive Memorable Bunkers
from the massive 170′ – long half-acre bunker that guards the par-4 17th hole to "Sand Creek," the long ribbon-like bunker you cross by bridge as you approach the par-5 7th.

» Extremely well-marked for yardage…to speed play. With your cooperation, rounds should take no more than 4:15. Color-coded stakes along each fairway and fairway disks are placed at 200, 150 and 100 yards from each green. In addition, over 800 sprinkler heads are yardage-marked to assist you in your shot selection.
