The Architects Golf Club: On-Course Enhancements Underway

Phillipsburg, NJ — The Architects Golf Club is pleased to share that we are open and operating as usual for the 2025 season. Golfers, event guests, and diners can continue to enjoy our championship course, top-notch amenities, and signature hospitality every day.

In an effort to keep the course in peak condition, Turco Golf is currently on-site completing a series of course enhancements. This includes bunker cleanup, cart path repairs, and re-sodding along cart path edges — all part of our continued commitment to providing an exceptional golf experience.

Designed as a tribute to the game’s most iconic course designers, The Architects Golf Club remains one of New Jersey’s most beloved public golf destinations. In addition to a world-class course, guests enjoy events, tournaments, and dining at Architects Bar & Grill — all just steps away from scenic views and unforgettable rounds.
