Golf in Medford Lakes

Medford Lakes is a small Burlington County borough built around the Shamong Lake system, a network of man-made lakes created in the 1920s as a planned vacation community in the Pine Barrens. Three golf facilities — Little Mill Country Club, Medford Village Country Club, and Medford Lakes Country Club — operate within the borough's boundaries, giving this compact lake community an extraordinary golf density for its size. The Pinelands-fringe setting provides sandy, fast-draining soils and the pine-oak woodland character that defines South Jersey's most distinctive recreational golf environment. The community's planned heritage gives its social institutions — including the golf clubs — an unusually close relationship with the residential neighborhoods they serve.
