Harkers Hollow Golf Club – Phillipsburg. NJ
Holes: 18 Par: 70 Yardage: 6,551 Architect: Robert White
Harkers Hollow Golf Club has been recently renovated and is better than ever.
Nestled in the hills of Scotts Mountain, Harkers Hollow was carved from a sloping hillside, giving it a challenging terrain with plenty of elevation changes. Opened in 1929, the golf course has a classic layout designed by Robert White, the first president of the PGA of America. Although it is a seemingly mild 6,551 yards from the back tees, the course plays much longer and harder thanks to the undulating terrain.
The layout does offer a few lengthy holes as well as some interesting par 3s. The greens are small and fast with breaks ranging from subtle to dramatic. There is hardly any water but the Lopatcong Creek does run the entire length of the golf course and requires the occasional carry. The par-3 fifth hole is the club’s signature.
