Course Description
Founded in 1925, Rock Spring Club is one of the premier golf clubs in New Jersey providing members with a first class golf experience coupled with fine dining and a myriad of recreational and social activities. Formed for the “fixed purpose to promote and encourage a spirit of family interest in all activities at the Club, both for members and their children.”
Rock Spring Club occupies approximately 174-acres uniquely situated atop First Mountain in West Orange, New Jersey; located 30 minutes from New York City. The clubhouse overlooks five-acre, spring-fed Cable Lake, which adjoins the first and second holes of the golf course.
The view to the East presents a panorama of the Manhattan skyline. The view to the West overlooks Cable Lake and the vista of Second Mountain.
Rock Spring is a unique, family-oriented club with a long tradition of excellence in competition, camaraderie and courtesy. The Rock Spring golfer is someone who has the privilege of playing golf at Rock Spring and who upholds the highest standards of our club, the rules of golf, as provided for by the United States Golf Association (USGA), and the spirit of companionship and competition that the sport promotes.
"The purposes for which this corporation is formed are to develop social intercourse among the Members and to provide its Members with the convenience of a clubhouse and facilities for indoor and outdoor sports, entertainment and amusement." - (Board of Directors, 1974)
