Northampton Valley Country Club

Course was in great condition, has fun layout with water and sand. Great value with hot deals and afternoon rates. Be aware the fairway bunkers are being redone.

The course is in very good condition. I appreciate that they are watering the greens and they are holding approach shots. They are a little slower than normal but that is much better than being burnt out and hard as a rock. Staff is always friendly. There was drinking water on the course to refill bottles on a steamy day.

The course is in very nice shape overall. The tee box from the back are in very good shape as are the greens. Greens were a bit soft and on the average speed side. The fairways were on the soft side so they must have a tremendous irrigation system as it hasn’t rained much this summer. The course is in a neighborhood so it doesn’t have much extra land to work with however the holes are separated enough where you don’t have golfers on different holes crossing paths. It is a course on the easy side to play. Very difficult to lose a golf ball as there is no woods however there are tall pines blocking each fairway from the other but you can play under them to get back in play. It is also one of the easiest courses to walk as all tees/greens are right next to each other. The course gets a lot of play and we did have to wait on just about every shot but that being said we played in 4 hours on a busy friday. All in all there are many more interesting courses in the area but if you are within an hour it is worth it for the value

Even the drive into this course is enjoyable. After the two opening holes which are straight and short give you a chance to get the bugs out of your swing, the rest of the course offers a subtle mix of holes to score on or struggle with.

The sand comes into okay just enough to catch a barely mush it shot and the few water holes that they have are just enough to get in your head if you a lose your focus.

Pace of pkay was great each time I played here

Fairways and Greens are in great condition. Very well kept.

I’ve really enjoyed playing Northampton. Nice layout and is in great condition. My only complaint was that I played a very early morning round, and half the pins were not in the hole. The two staff members responsible for cutting a new hole didn’t seem to be in a hurry, so I had to drive to the green to place the pin in the hole. Other than that, it was a great experience.

Even though the course is more expensive than the others in the area, it was worth the price difference due to pace of play. We (3 of us) were able to complete our round in 4 hours whereas other local courses typically run between 5 and 6 hours on the weekends.
The course was in good shape and we had an enjoyable time. My only complaint is that the beverage cart didn’t accept credit cards.

Played as part of a group with two back-to-back tee times on a Saturday morning. My 7 year old son came with as part of the first group, and the pro shop asked what he was doing and I said he was going to ride along and drop a ball on the green and putt it in with the other two in our group. When we got to the starter, he was condescending and told me my son couldn't play and warned me that he could take the key out of the cart or drive it away as if I don't know what I'm doing. I have taken my son out at least a dozen times over the last year, and this was the most insulting starter I've encountered in a while.

The course was in sub-par shape. It has been wet recently, but there was standing water in multiple spots on almost every hole and it hadn't rained for 18 hours prior telling me drainage was poor. Other local courses do not have this problem. Fairways and greens were average. Fairway bunkers were poor (missing sand, overgrown weeds, not replaced or sodded). Tee boxes were OK. It was a crowded day and the pace of play was OK. Range is poor. This place was bought by the township several years ago and it was my first time playing it since privately owned, and not much has changed.

We left after 12 holes as my son was upset as they were persistent he couldn't play citing that we would hold up play. My group ended up finishing the round in 4hrs 10mins. so take what you want from that, and there was no backup on course.

Within a 30 minute drive there are better courses for the same money and do not have an issue with a 7 year old junior tagging along and playing around the greens.

Most greenside bunker renovations have been completed and look good. Fairway ones due are up next. Fairways were great
