Is Crystal Springs Resort the East Coast’s Best Golf Getaway?

Crystal Springs Resort in Sussex County, New Jersey, combines destination golf, luxury accommodations, professional instruction and year-round amenities into one of the most complete golf getaways in the region. Mike is joined by The DROP Podcast’s Social Media Manager Mike “Shack” Shackleton to break down their three-day, two-night experience from two different perspectives: Shack filming everything the property offers and Mike playing the courses, staying at Grand Cascades Lodge and experiencing the resort as a guest. Together, they discuss the golf, atmosphere and hospitality that make them believe Crystal Springs may be the best golf getaway in New Jersey and potentially one of the best on the East Coast.

The feature covers Mike’s rounds at Black Bear and Ballyowen, a course many golfers consider among New Jersey’s finest public experiences, along with his nine-hole playing lesson at Wild Turkey Golf Club with Tom Reynolds, Leadbetter Senior Instructor and Director of Instruction at the Leadbetter Golf Academy at Crystal Springs. The full playing lesson is available on the channel, while this resort feature expands beyond the golf to include Grand Cascades Lodge, Minerals Hotel, the Minerals Sports Club and Elements Spa. Whether planning a golf trip, family vacation or couples getaway, this complete breakdown shows everything Crystal Springs Resort offers and helps viewers decide how they would build their own stay.
