Plainfield Country Club

Plainfield Country Club offers an 18-hole private golf experience set in the gentle rolling hills of Central New Jersey just outside Edison. This championship course unfolds through mature hardwoods and subtle elevation changes that shape a layout both approachable and tactically demanding. The parkland-style design rewards precision from tee to green, where fairways curve gracefully around water hazards and well-placed bunkers that challenge shot selection without overwhelming players of most skill levels.

From the first hole, players encounter a course that invites strategic thought paired with measured aggression. The greens are meticulously maintained, offering a consistent roll with subtle undulations that test putting touch. Throughout the round, natural light filters through towering trees lining many holes, creating shifting patterns and visual depth that enhance focus and ambiance.

Members and their guests appreciate the course’s balance of accessibility and competitive elements, making it ideal for both weekend rounds and tournament play. The overall yardage positions Plainfield as a true test for lower handicaps while remaining fair enough for recreational players seeking enjoyment without intimidation.

Amenities extend beyond the course with a classic clubhouse offering dining, locker rooms, and event spaces that reflect the club’s traditions and community spirit. Walking is encouraged, and the terrain is walkable for players comfortable on modest slopes and carrying or using push carts on well-maintained paths. Golf carts are also available upon request.

Located just minutes from Edison, the course’s setting away from urban bustle allows golfers to focus on their game surrounded by nature’s quiet rhythm and carefully tended landscapes. Weather permitting, spring through fall offers ideal conditions when soft breezes add a subtle layer of challenge to drives and approach shots.

Plainfield Country Club blends thoughtful design and a welcoming atmosphere, making it a staple for serious golfers and social players alike, delivering a round that feels both familiar and rewarding with each visit.
