Shark River Golf Course

18 holes. Designed by Scottish golf pro Joseph "Scotty" I'Anson in the early 1900s, Shark River Golf Course features tight, narrow fairways, deep-faced bunkers and the challenge of small well-protected greens. The holes vary from a short drivable par 4 to a long risky par 5 with some strong par 3 holes mixed in. Even at its modest length of 6,457 yards this course offers a stern but fair test to all golfers. Shark River is a par 71 that has a USGA course rating of 70.3 and USGA slope rating of 130 from the blue tees. The course is open through the winter, weather permitting, with temporary tees and greens.
