About Stockton Seaview Hotel and Golf Club
Seaview is home to two world-class golf courses, The Bay and The Pines Courses, as well as a 296-room hotel and spa. Stockton Seaview Hotel and Golf Club is located in Galloway, New Jersey and sits on 670 beautiful acres of woodland and seaside land.
The Bay Course opened in 1914 and was designed by Hugh Wilson and Donald Ross. The 6,300 yard course is not a test of length, rather a test of imagination, accuracy and short game. The Bay Course presents a Scottish links feel, dramatic seaside views, deep pot bunkers, plus small undulating greens. The course is the current host of the ShopRite LPGA Classic and played host (9 holes) to the 1942 PGA Championship.
The Pines Course opened in 1929 and was designed by William Flynn and Howard Toomey. Unlike the Bay Course, the Pines winds its way through New Jersey woodlands presenting elevation change and doglegs abound. The course measures 6,800 yards, features many large bunkers, and gently sloping large greens. The 16th hole was the site of Sam Snead’s miraculous 60-foot chip-in to win the 1942 PGA Championship – his first major.
