Cute place nestled in the woods of Chatham Borough. I'm not a member but got invited as a guest…read moreand I thought it was a quaint clean community pool. It has 3 pools , 2 large ones of which one has a water slide and a toddler pool which is mid-shin deep for them to splash about with some pool toys. If not the pool, they can go to the two playgrounds...think Little Tikes play material. It also has 8 tennis courts and you can play tennis without additional charges as it's part of being a member. Cost as a member? $3K.....it's pricey but very close by for good outside entertainment.

Minisink is a hidden gem in Chatham, NJ! We moved to Chatham right before my second son was born…read moreand immediately started to hear about the area pools and clubs from our friends and neighbors. Minisink came up so often in those conversations as the "perfect family club at which you'll spend your whole summer" that I immediately investigated it as an option for our family. And it lived up to all the hype! We've been to or belonged to a number of other clubs in the area, including Summit's pool, Racquets in Short Hills, Madison's pool, New Providence's pool, Chatham's community pool, and the Colony pool. All of these others have benefits in their own right, but none of them provided us with anything comparable to Minisink's amenities, year-round activity and social community! From paddle tennis in the fall and winter to swimming, diving, tennis, BBQs, and more during the spring and summer, there is always something happening at Minisink. And aside from the physical amenities, Minisink's family-oriented community is what makes it really great! You'll show up on day one and feel like you belong, your kids will know everyone since all their school friends belong as well, and the club works really hard to provide a full calendar of child and adult social activities. Minisink's value, in my opinion, is really hard to beat!

Our daughters' B'not Mitzvah was absolutely perfect from start to finish. The food was phenomenal, the service was outstanding, and every detail was executed flawlessly. Our guests could not stop raving about the food all night long!! Edison was an absolute dream to work with. He was incredibly responsive throughout the entire planning process, handled every detail with care, and was always so kind, calm, and professional. On the day of the event, he managed everything seamlessly, allowing us to relax and enjoy every moment! We are beyond grateful to Edison and the entire Maplewood Country Club team for creating such an unforgettable celebration. We highly recommend them!!!

The interior of the club reminds me of a dapper, formal, exclusive country club-ish type of place. I came here for a private company party where they served buffet style food. Some of the standouts from the buffet are the cheese board (mozzarella is super tender), taco bar (flavorful ground beef) and the braised beef short ribs (so tender and juicy). Our venue was walled off from the main dining area and we were able to fit 6 round tables, a few small tables near the bar, a dance floor and a DJ stand. They do wedding receptions here too. Overall, a nice, clean and classy place.

Gary's Wine & Marketplace, was the evening's presenting sponsor. The event provided guests with fine wine, beer and spirits. The event had a Tricky Tray, 50-50 and Silent auction. Chefs from thirty of the area's finest restaurants served samples of their best dishes. During the event, we met wine representatives McKenna and Hanna. They introduced us to some amazing wines. One of our favorite wines was a 2016 Zinfandel named "Rattlesnake" from the Mount Peak Winery in Sonoma County. Our favorite foods of the evening were the Sumptuous Scallops from Rod's Steakhouse, the Lemon Chicken from Pascarella Bros. and Prosciutto and Creamy Cheeses from Gary's Wine and Cheese! Overall, the club has an elegant interior and lovely outside grounds. The entire event layout was excellent!. Everyone was able to move about and sample wine and food without any overcrowding. The service was absolutely wonderful. It was truly delightful coming to the Brooklake Country Club for the very first time! Brooklake Country Club's website is http://www.brooklakecc.com

This is a review of the golf course and grill room only.... Guest of a member had opportunity to…read moreplay this wonderful course this past week as this private club has been on my bucket list for sometime. Arrive to a fairly ordinary clubhouse it's 730AM and no valet on duty so I have to park and carry my own clubs to the drop area where staff showed up to assist and bring me to the member. Practice area is fairly small nothing special and they use low compression golf balls with distance limited to insure they are not hit over the fences etc. Certainly doesn't lend itself to getting warmed up properly but you take what you can get based on their limited space. NO GPS on golf carts surprising in this day and age... Golf course itself is amazing perfectly manicured fairways, bunker, greens, tee boxes simply amazing.. Tree lined fairways and rough as thick as U.S. Open rough.. in short Simply amazing. Locker facilities are adequate and the grill room lunch was fine but average. In Short the golf course itself with out all the other stuff is simply average great course though.
