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.

County Course with Private Course conditions

Neshanic Valley is always a joy to play because of the layout and the conditions. It is pricey if you do not have a county card or do not get a "Hot Deal". However, it is worth occasionally paying the higher price.

Nice course fly through

It was expected to rain by weather Forcast. However, it was cloudy all afternoon with very few people on the course. The course condition is excellent. We finished a round in 3 hours.

Gorgeous place for all skill levels

This place is beautiful. I got lucky and took a chance during a possible storm day and the golf gods were smiling upon me. Maybe saw 5 golfers all day with minimal rain and some sun even. Greens are absolutely perfect, the rough is thick but doesn’t ruin your shot necessarily. Tee boxes and fairways are ideal. I got to play all 3 9’s and they are all fun and I would have to have another go before I picked a favorite. I got an amazing deal when I went last minute, so I can’t speak too much on cost, but this place is one of the nicer courses I’ve played in the region. About 40 minutes from where I am but well worth the trip over the bridge to NJ and winding through their roads where the speed limit changes every 2 miles to get there.

Workers I encountered were very friendly and helpful also.
