Length 7069 yards
Slope 132
Rating 73.5

The 27-hole Neshanic Valley Golf Course is the flagship course of the Somerset County Park Commission system. The renowned design team of Michael Hurdzan and Dana Fry created the course. Divided into three nines known as the Lake, Ridge, and Meadow, the course provides three different 18-hole combinations. Each par-36 nine has five different sets of tees. The Meadow/Lake Course features ample amounts of fescue along both the fairways and greens. If you don't hit straight off the tees, you may find yourself in some trouble. There are cavernous bunkers framing the greens, which are also subtly sloped for even more of a challenge. The golf course begins and ends with water holes but you'll find environmentally sensitive wetland areas that come into play throughout. In addition to the 27-hole course, Neshanic Valley also has a nine-hole, par-32 Academy Course.

Great track

I play 5 rounds a week. Mid single digit. Best public golf course in NJ. Can be a quick round but 4.5 hours on Monday which I hope isn’t a new trend

Greens were awful, fairways not much better

Felt like I was putting thru moon craters. Staff made excuse about lack of maintenance by staff due to hiring shortage. This course charges enough money to afford 3 more maintenance workers. It is a really nice course but very disappointed with reason for bad greens. Fairways were not that good either, putting container with dirt in cart would be nice.

Geens were SLOW

I ususally play this course about 3 times a year. The course is usually in great shape. The greens were a huge disappointment today, VERY SLOW by their usual standards.

Greens were extremely slow

Been playing at Neshanic for over 10 years. The course is always in great condition. But on this day, the greens were the slowest I have ever seen. Otherwise, one of the top public golf courses in NJ.

Great track

Love this course. Conditions are always immaculate. $90 is a tad steep but It’s cheaper than most of top state public courses.
