Detailed description

Avalon Golf Club is a Semi-Private 18 hole golf course located in Cape May Court House, New Jersey.

Avalon Golf Club first opened for play in 1960. The course was designed by Bob Hendricks.

Nestled between Ocean City and Wildwood, along the Jersey coast, Avalon Golf course is nicknamed "The Gem of the Shore." It features tree-lined fairways and average-sized greens. The three par 3's on the back nine require pinpoint accuracy, particularly hole #17, measuring 166 yards and requiring a carry over a lake to a well-bunkered green. At Avalon, players must contend with narrow fairways, an abundance of water, and the most prominent feature, the wind. Being so close to the shore, the wind might very well come into play.

Par for the course is 71. From the back tees the course plays to 6325 yards. From the forward tees the course measures 4964 yards. The longest hole on the course is # 4, a par-5 that plays to 540 yards. The shortest hole on the course is # 15, a par-3 that plays to 145 yards from the back tees.

Watch out for # 4, the 540 yard par-5 challenge and the #1 handicap hole on the course. The easiest hole at Avalon Golf Club is # 11, a 163 yard par-3.
