Plainfield Country Club
Plainfield Country Club delivers a classic private 18-hole parkland layout distinguished by mature trees, subtle elevation, and a measured challenge suitable for a broad spectrum of players. Located near Edison, New Jersey, it offers a refined golf experience set within a tranquil, member-focused environment.
Course Overview
Plainfield Country Club presents a classic 18-hole golf experience set within the gentle contours of Central New Jersey. This private club offers a course that embraces the traditional parkland style, defined by mature trees that line the fairways and subtle elevation changes that shape strategy on every hole. The course stretches over 6,700 yards from the back tees and plays to a par of 71, accommodating a diverse range of golfers while retaining a competitive challenge for low handicaps.
From the first tee, players encounter generous fairways that invite thoughtful shot-making rather than brute force. Water hazards come into play selectively, requiring careful navigation without overwhelming the pace of play. Greens hold subtle breaks, encouraging precise approach shots and measured putting. Throughout the round, the setting provides a serene environment - expansive lawns framed by old-growth oaks and maples create a quiet canopy, shielding players from nearby development and lending a focused ambiance.
The design encourages walking, with gently rolling terrain that reduces fatigue and highlights the natural flow between holes. This accessibility makes Plainfield Country Club appealing to members who seek both recreation and competition without excessive physical strain. The course’s maintenance standard is consistently high, with well-manicured fairways and receptive putting surfaces that respond well in all seasons.
The clubhouse serves as the social centerpiece, offering members a comfortable space for relaxation, dining, and camaraderie after their round. Additional facilities include practice areas that feature a driving range and putting green, supporting skill development and warm-up routines. While the club maintains a members-only policy, it is known for fostering a welcoming atmosphere within its golf community.
In all, Plainfield Country Club combines a thoughtful course layout, mature landscaping, and refined amenities to offer a rewarding golfing experience. It balances approachability with enough nuance to engage players looking to sharpen their game in a private, traditional setting within the Edison area.
Course Highlights
Classic parkland character with mature trees lining fairways, carefully positioned water hazards that add strategic depth, and large, subtly contoured greens offering varied pin placements. The course’s layout promotes thoughtful shot shaping and accuracy over length, set within a quiet, natural setting that enhances concentration.

If you're looking for a wedding venue, look NO further - like literally stop looking and just book The Club at Snoqualmie. We just got married there last weekend, and it was the best day of our lives. Nevaeh was our point of contact with The Club and she made our lives as easy as possible from the very beginning all the way through to the end. She answered my one million questions, helped me execute my vision, and became a friend to us on our journey. The views speak for themselves, but another very important thing I need to highlight was the FOOD! My husband and I were dreaming about our wedding dinner from the moment we first had it at our tasting - nothing compares. Our experience was beyond our wildest expectations and we are so thankful that we were smart enough to choose The Club at Snoqualmie well over a year ago.

My wife and I got married at this venue in April 2024! Molly was absolutely amazing and helped us coordinate a lot of things for our wedding, including chair rentals (which we upgraded), decor/linens, and seating arrangements. She was professional, communicative, and worked well with our other vendors! Compared to other venues, we felt The Club at Snoqualmie Ridge was priced well. The only minor hiccup for us was having our salads under-dressed during dinner; but overall, the service was great! And our guests loved the stunning views at the club! It's an absolutely beautiful venue!

We had our wedding at The Club at Snoqualmie Ridge last weekend and truly couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful venue or better experience. The view of the mountains is absolutely breathtaking and the space itself is so elegant and well-kept. Nevaeh, our venue coordinator, was incredible- so kind, responsive, and truly went above and beyond to make our day run smoothly. Even with the heat that day, she worked tirelessly behind the scenes to make sure everything was perfect. Our guests couldn’t stop raving about the venue. Highly recommend this place if you’re looking for a stunning location paired with amazing staff and service.

There is so much wrong with this business, hard to know where to start. Note this golf club is owned by a corporation (Arcis Golf) not by the members. As such there is no accountability. All the corporate owners care about is profit. A Google search of Arcis Golf shows they've purchase many private clubs across the country and the memberships are not happy. They underpay and treat their employees terribly, consequently the employee turnover is huge at all their clubs. Those that stay just don't care, they are just putting in their time to get paid. The Club at Snoqualmie Ridge has had 5 different General Managers in 5 years. They had similar turnover in the restaurant and pro-shop. The membership is very unhappy with the Club. Most members don't even eat at the club because the service is so bad and they are overcharged. A few years ago the Club instituted a mandatory tip of 20% because members wouldn't leave tips for such poor service. You can go through every department and find problems. The golfing membership is upset that the club schedules many outside events and allows so many guests to play all the time that it fills the tee sheet and members can't play. Members pay large monthly dues and then can't use the facilities. Many couples that have had weddings at the Club were very disappointed. The Club event managers just don't care. Like the general managers and other employees, they are just putting in their time, looking for other jobs and jumping ship as soon as they can.
