Plainfield Country Club
Plainfield Country Club features an 18-hole championship parkland course that combines strategic design with a welcoming atmosphere for players of varied skills. Located near Edison, this private club pairs rolling fairways with impeccable service and traditional clubhouse amenities.
Course Overview
Plainfield Country Club offers a refined private golf experience amid the rolling landscapes of Central New Jersey, just minutes from Edison. This 18-hole championship course unfolds across a meticulously maintained layout combining classic parkland elements with strategic shot-making demands. Fairways move with a gentle rise and fall, framed by mature trees that shape both angles of approach and offer a quiet focus away from nearby suburban life. Greens present subtle breaks that reward keen reading and precise iron play, while bunkers are wisely placed to test placement rather than penalize with undue harshness.
At approximately 6,600 yards from the back tees and a par of 71, the course balances challenge and playability. It welcomes players who appreciate traditional golf aesthetics but also makes room for those eager to sharpen their short game without overwhelming intimidation. The verdant setting changes character through the seasons, often revealing pockets of light filtering through leafy canopies and casting shadows that help players gauge terrain nuances.
The clubhouse, an elegant facility at the heart of the property, offers members a comfortable respite with fine dining and well-appointed locker rooms. Its atmosphere blends casual sophistication with attentive service, ideal for post-round conversations or hosting private events. Walking is encouraged here, and the terrain’s gentle undulations make for an enjoyable stroll, though players should bring supportive footwear to navigate the occasional sloping green complexes.
Located at 1591 Woodland Ave, Plainfield Country Club upholds a traditional members-only policy, with tee times available to members’ guests via invitation. The course’s reputation for its blend of natural beauty, strategic design, and clubhouse hospitality secures its place among the respected clubs in the region. For golfers seeking an intimate setting that respects the game’s history while offering contemporary comfort, Plainfield presents a thoroughly rewarding challenge.
Course Highlights

That was my 1st time there, l went for my friend birthday/retirement party. The club was very nice over looking a beautiful golf course ( my late dad would have love to been on it). It was very spacious, clean and the food was excellent. And a very nice dance floor & the staff was amazing, professional & on point. I definitely would recommend this spot for any occasion.

I've had the pleasure of hosting several company events at Berkeley Hills Country Club. The location is beautiful, and the staff are amazing to work with. They have been helpful with planning and making last minute tweaks to the event as needs arise. I would highly recommend Berkeley Hills Country Club for their amazing service, food, and beautiful event spaces to choose from.

Beautiful course, though I've never had to drive in the street so many different times to get to different tee boxes. Not an issue, just weird.
