Brief Description of the Golf Course and/or Club
 
The Atlantic County Green Tree Golf Course was acquired by the county in 1992 using funding from the New Jersey Green Acres program. The course was part of a 241 acre tract obtained as part of Atlantic County's on-going efforts to preserve open space.
 
This 5,177 yard, par 70 course is favored by both beginning and experienced golfers. Its tight fairways are being continually upgraded to make play there a more delightful and enjoyable experience. The course is equipped with a driving range and putting green for your convenience.
The course is considered challenging and the greens are carefully guarded by well placed sand and water obstacles.
