Hendricks Field Golf Course

Hendricks Field Golf Course is a classic 18-hole layout in Belleville, New Jersey, designed by architect Charles Banks and opened in 1929. Renovations over the years have included reconstructed tees and bunkers, along with drainage upgrades that have meaningfully improved playing conditions. The course is known for its well-contoured greens and strategically demanding design. The par-four 4th features a cluster of Principal's Nose bunkers in the center of the fairway, forcing golfers to think carefully off the tee. The par-three 6th presents an even sterner test, with a green almost entirely surrounded by bunkers. On the back nine, the par-five 10th adds a further challenge — a stream crossing the fairway that must be negotiated on the way to the green. Narrow fairways and well-guarded greens run throughout, rewarding accurate and thoughtful play. Hendricks Field is considered a hidden gem in Belleville, offering a rewarding round for golfers who appreciate classically designed golf.
