A 220-acre upscale private club located between New York City and Trenton, situated near the site of the Revolutionary War’s seminal Battle of Monmouth in 1778, Battleground Country Club offers its members a rare blend of historical significance and modern private club amenities. With a course designed by Hal Purdy in 1961, and later re-routed and renovated in the early 2000s by the Northeast Collaborative led by Robert McNeill, Battleground’s par-71 golf course stretches nearly 7,000 yards and carries a rating of 73.7, with a slope of 133. The club also features two swimming pools, four tennis courts, a cigar lounge, and multiple dining venues.
Battleground Country Club, a 220-acre upscale private club located between New York City and Trenton, New Jersey, has joined the Concert Golf Partners family of premium private clubs as its 40th property, further expanding Concert’s presence across the Philadelphia–New Jersey–New York corridor.
Battleground’s owners, the Maschler Family and Michael McCarty, selected Concert Golf Partners to carry forward the club’s legacy. Their decision underscores Concert’s reputation as the preferred successor for thriving, high-end private clubs seeking long-term stewardship, continuity, and a seamless transition for members. With substantial financial resources and a long-term ownership philosophy, Concert is uniquely positioned to invest in premier clubs while preserving their distinct culture and traditions.
“Concert Golf is deeply committed to upholding the high standards and traditions that define our clubs, and Battleground’s remarkable history and engaged membership make it a natural fit within our portfolio,” said Concert Golf Partners Senior Vice President Jordan Peace. “We seek out exceptional private clubs where thoughtful investment and a member-first approach can further elevate the overall club experience.”
“We are tremendously proud of what we have built at Battleground Country Club since we took ownership in 2009,” said Battleground Co-Owner Erik Maschler. “We are confident that Concert Golf Partners is the right steward to continue investing in the Club as they offer our members a standard of service that enriches and enhances Battleground’s storied tradition. We will forever be grateful for the many memories and relationships we have made at the Club.”
