Glenwood Country Club is a private golf club in New Jersey. Although this is a prestigious members only club, it has managed to keep rates at a budget friendly price. This is an 18-hole course that contains wooded areas, creeks and water hazards.

Glenwood Country Club was established in 1964, and was designed by Hal Purdy. Purdy had a well known name in the New Jersey area for designing golf courses. He has designed 25 courses just in the New Jersey area. Stephen Kay was the designer for the newly $2.3 million renovation that the course received.

From the back tees, the course has over 7,000 yards of play. There were additions of these back tees to allow seasoned players to advance their skill sets. There was a focus placed on bunker placement as well. The renovation allowed more diversity to be added to the holes. This gave the course an upper edge by making them a championship caliber course.
