Paramus Golf Course

Paramus Golf Course

Paramus is a municipal golf course in Northern New Jersey off the Garden State Expressway at Route 17 in Paramus. It was originally the Saddle River Golf and Country Club which the city purchased for $4.5 Million in 1976.

It’s located adjacent to and on similar land as Ridgewood C.C. which has hosted PGA Tour’s Barclays and Northern Trust tournaments, the U.S. Amateur, and the Ryder Cup. The golf course features hardwood tree lined, parallel fairways over level terrain with 35 sand bunkers defending the landing zones and greens, and ponds or streams in play on 1/3 of the holes. There’s four sets of tees from 4,539 yards to 6,309 yards at the blue tees, 70.2/124, course/slope ratings, redesign work by Stephen Kay.
