Overview
Quaker Ridge returned to our list of America’s 100 Greatest Courses in 2013 thanks to major revisions by Gil Hanse that included removal of many trees and the rebuilding of bunkers; Hanse remains the consulting architect as the club is fine-tuning this A.W. Tillinghast design each year. This includes reclaiming putting surfaces back to Tillinghast dimensions, except on the sporty par-4 17th green, where a left-hand lobe that had been added by Frank Duane in 1964 was chopped off. Quaker’s strong suit has long been its powerful par-4s, such as the fourth hole with a collection of hazards needing to be navigated off the tee, the sixth, where tee shots must be squeezed between a creek and hillside and the drive-and-pitch 11th, where the green is girdled by a stream. Though Winged Foot's greens are widely considered some of the best in golf, don't sleep on the Tilly down the street.

“very playable, great variety of long, short and doglegs. Risk reward on almost every hole. Good routing and amazing green complexes. Great shot par 3 9th."

“Quaker Ridge does not have to take a back seat to its lofty neighboring courses. It stands quite well all by itself. A wonderful outside to inside routing with a number of incredibly strategic golf holes. If you get an invitation, even if you don't get on any of the other courses in the area. Certainly worthy of its top 100 ranking."

“The greens were consistently fast, undulating and added to the total experience. Quaker Ridge has maintained its classic appeal 100 years later."

“I had long neglected to play this course but was lucky enough to get to play it this September. There are nothing but good holes on this course starting with the par 5 1st hole. The 2d through 8th holes, with one par 3 (#5), are a series of very strong 4's, 2-7 with distance and 8 with some strategic mounds in the middle of the fairway. The back nine is the same. Just more strong holes."

“Quaker Ridge is simply a perfect environment for a day of golf. The course is expertly manicured and the property’s landforms will keep players engaged round after round. The par-3 ninth has a dorito-shaped green that this golfer could take aim at over and over in hopes of achieving the accuracy required to make a 2."

“Quaker Ridge occupies a wonderfully suited piece of land for golf with gently rolling hills and a meandering stream cutting across the property. The stretch of holes from #6-15 are fantastic with wonderful variety, strategic options and charm. I especially loved the side sloping greens on #11 and #15 and the "Quaker" ridge running diagonally along the 14th green. Those are features rarely found on other greens are a few examples of what makes Quaker's set of greens world class."

“A private course with a good group of par 4's, and one great par 3. White bunkers were strategically place throughout the course."

“There is a good reason why this is called "Tillie's Treasure" as its a wonderful walk and a such a great golf course. Its a fun debate to ask if you would rather play Quaker Ridge or its well known neighbor courses at Winged Foot?"
