Knoll Country Club

This Morris County gem delivers surprisingly bold elevation changes across rolling terrain that most New Jersey golfers never see coming. The par-4 12th hole drops 60 feet from tee to green through a tree-lined chute that demands both courage and precision, while the closing stretch features three consecutive holes that climb steadily upward, testing your stamina as much as your short game. What separates this track from the crowded public golf landscape is its willingness to punish mediocre shots without ever feeling unfair—a rare quality in accessible golf.
