Berkshire Valley Golf Course
About
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.

Golfer Reviews
Better than I ever seen
I have played this course about 10x in the past. It has always been challenging but being a county course, I guess, it only went so far. but since billy casper golf mgt. took over things have definitely improved. I found the course just the other day to be in beautiful shape. The greens are huge and not terribly fast but fast enough to mess you up. The same thing could be said about the rest of the course. It is definitely capable of eating your lunch. There's a lot of variety here and the scenery and wildlife is beautiful and entertaining. As a 15 handicap I followed the score card's recommendation by playing the white tees. I shot a 99 when last time I was there I posted an 88. Even so, I had a great time and will return again soon.
great
i like this couse. i wnat to go again therer. i can recommend it my friends.
one of the best in nj
one of the best county courses you'll find in northern nj. great, scenic and challenging layout - but incredibly enjoyable for golfers of all skills. maintenance is very good and getting better.
Terrible shape, not worth the money they are charging. Hitting out of the fairways was like hitting out of a bunker.
A lot of courses especially in New Jersey are just way to over priced. Berkshire is one of them. For some reason they decided to aerate them this Tuesday on the front nine. Of course you dont know that until you get there. Fairways were extremely sandy and the greens were not much to brag about. I used to enjoy playing here, but unti some changes happen they will not receive any more money from me. I do not recommend this course right now. Needs some serious improvement.
A great view from every part of the golf course.
From the drive up to the parking lot, to the 18th green, I had a great day at this golf course. Very very very scenic golf course. The clubhouse is small, but it seemed nice. Nice driving range. It's hard to tell how you are hitting at the range because you're hitting up a hill. I played the blue tees so it did not play too long. The tips are way back though. Keep your ball straight on the first couple of holes. Great golf course!!!!
Very nice aesthetics.
Has fantastic potential! Needs upkeep, especially on the tee boxes and greens. Fairways were very nice. Beautiful vistas throughout. Also saw some deer up close and personal on the 5th hole! Excellent bunker placement and not too much water.
Always the super scenic and beautiful place to play a round..
The condition of the greens, if significant, should be posted and informed along with any other important matters affecting the play.
The courtesy of the staff is excellent.
Excellent
Always well maintained and challenge, Beautiful scenery, lots of elements and obsticles. Greens are firm and challenge.
Course was extremely wet with t-boxes all palced at the red tee boxes
I was not notified that there were only nine holes open. I recommend that Golf.now updates course conditions. The course is very challenging when played under normal conditions.
suprer layuot ,can be very challenging,
great layout with challenges on all holes,can be scenic ,good conditions,pace of play can be improved if staff would encourge players to choose proper tees .still some rough edges like areas of gravel were cart paths should be,lack of rest rooms[porto jonhs]..range is fine , practice putt area large and convienient .
with a few refinements morris co could have itself the best county course in north jersey
Nice course, friendly staff, great value.
Very picturesque layout, interesting holes, great condition for late season. Well worth the money.
Course was in very good condition
The course was in very good condition the only thing I would like to be different though is that the fall rates should be a little bit lower compared to the other courses in the area other than that everything was great
very challenging from the back tee's
this was the first time that i have played this course and it was a fantastic course.kept pristine condition. fairways greens . totally recommend this course.
Great shape and exciting in 1st through 4th hole.
Everything's o.k. considering generous price for week day.
The course is difficult to player for high handicap golfer
Great layout!
Cart path only adds at least 45 min to round. Hole #3 is impossible for people with bad knees or bad hips. No handicapped flags available! Cart path should be on right side of fairway making for easier accessibility!
Good Challenge for a Public Course
Maintained Fairly Well. Greens a little on the slow side but tricky given the hilly surroundings. Played this course five times this year and each was a 4 1/2 to 5 hours round which is the only complaint I have. They could use a half way house as the 9&10th holes dont come back to the club house.
Good value, challenging greens, extremely slow play exacerbated by poor design/layout of first five holes.
Have been playing here for a few years now. Pro-shop process for golfnow reservations is efficient and starters are friendly. Very picturesque course with beautiful vistas especially in the fall. Greens are undulating, fast and challenging.
Pace of play is atrocious at best. Rangers could do a much better job in moving things along by having slow players pick up and move to the green or next tee. This would benefit everyone.
