Berkshire Valley has a scenic location in the Highlands region of northern New Jersey. It is known as one of best public golf courses in the area. The course is perched atop the ridge of Green Pond Mountain, providing a dramatic topography for a challenging round of golf. The front of the golf course was carefully carved from a hillside, featuring narrow fairways that place a premium on accuracy. The first five holes are particularly scenic as well as formidable. There are some open holes that play along the cliffs, subjecting them to the prevailing winds, one of these is the intimidating par-5 third. The Berkshire Valley golf course finishes with its signature hole. This hole can be deceiving since it has a generous fairway, but the second shot is uphill to a tough green.

Great track

Awesome course in amazing conditions. Drove an hour and definitely worth the drive. Only issue was a morning outing that slowed later tee times. Rangers were communicative and moved players along. Would highly recommend.

Best Morris County course. Better yet one of the best public golf course in north Jersey

Tee boxes need a little work. Read allt about the shape of the bunkers. Bunkers are fine unless you’re terrible playing out of the trap but they have been worked on recently. Fairways have a lot of divots but with all of the rain we’ve gotten it’s kind of expected. Excellent around the greens and the greens are rolling very well. This was my first time playing here and if you land the ball in the wrong place on the green you can expect a 3 putt. Pins were in very tough positions where if you literally roll the ball 3-4 feet past the hole it’s rolling down to the lower tier. Absolutely love a challenging course to really see where you stand. Would def go back!!!

Traditional, fun, views, manicured, and under $100. I enjoyed this course playing it while visiting from Atlanta. I would like to play it again.

Tough front 4, then smooth sailing

Foursome played today, cart path only, due to the rains last night but the round still moved pretty well.

First 4 holes are long and narrow- go left and you’re in the mountain, and go right and you’re off the cliff- need to be right in the middle. Also- especially on the first hole watch out for the snakes- they are poisonous and there are signs posted about them.

Rest of the course is beautiful, open and scenic. They have a BBQ shack on the 9th where you order the food and pick it up on the 12th- so it doesn’t slow down play. cart girl drives around. A little rain earlier on but it stopped and the clouds broke to a sunny day! Overall great morning and round.

Bunker Work Needed, No Ranger

We played a Tuesday afternoon round on a perfect day for golf but it took 5 hours. There was no ranger to push the group ahead of us and a 2 to 3 hole opened in front of them. Rocks in the bunkers have been a problem for several years and there seem to be no plans to address this. Many bunkers are completely unplayable. I don’t know how a legitimate score can be posted should you enter a trap. This is a fun, picturesque layout that desperately needs some work done.
