(RESTON, VA) – Billy Casper Golf (BCG) – one of the largest owner-operators of golf courses, country clubs and resorts – has been selected to manage Hyatt Hills Golf Complex in Clark, NJ, which features a public nine-hole golf course, expansive driving range and miniature golf.
BCG will manage every facet of the facility – located less than 25 miles from New York City – including course and property maintenance, staffing and training, clubhouse activities, golf instruction, merchandising, marketing and public relations, special events and financial management.
Citing BCG’s years of expertise in attracting and retaining new consumers, owner RACER Trust chose BCG to strategically promote Hyatt Hills as a top regional golf destination for golfers and families. BCG will create exciting and special events and a frequent-guest program.
“Billy Casper Golf is the cream of the crop,” says Elliott P. Laws, of EPLET, LLC, Administrative Trustee of RACER Trust. “RACER is excited to partner with Billy Casper Golf and looks forward to, with the continued support of local elected officials, providing patrons of Hyatt Hills Golf Complex with excellent service and a great golfing experience in family-friendly surroundings.”
Cementing Hyatt Hills as the ideal location to learn and improve golf skills, BCG will enhance PGA-level instruction through individual and group lessons, camps and clinics.
“We are bullish about the future of Hyatt Hills as an entertainment haven,” says Peter Hill, Chairman and CEO of BCG. “A good framework is already in place, and our team will aggressively add spark to the many activities there.”
The nine-hole, 3,350-yard Hyatt Hills Golf Course offers a mix of pars, lengths and doglegs, ensuring fun challenges for golfers. At 500 yards, the par-5 No. 2 beckons players to avoid the large bunker on the right if they are to reach the well-guarded green in two shots. Holes 6, 7 and 8 present a stirring stretch as golfers play around and over a large pond on the course’s version of “Amen Corner.”
With 50 hitting stations, 11 of which are covered and heated, the driving range is ideal for year-round game improvement. Popular among families and for birthday parties and special events, the beautifully landscaped miniature golf course, known as Mt. Hyatt, includes a picturesque waterfall, wandering streams and stepping ponds.
Oh’ Brian’s on the Green is the perfect neighborhood spot to relax over an authentic Irish-American pub menu, wine, specialty cocktails and more than 20 beers on tap. Local musicians provide live entertainment on weekends.

When the Trust was formed, it owned properties at 89 locations in 14 states, principally in the Midwest and Northeast.
