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.

Best County course in NJ, no question

After a few inches of rain last night it wasn’t even cart path only and the course was in unbelievable shape, to be honest It probably should’ve been CPO but hats off to the maintenance staff

Excellent Conditions

One of my favorite courses in Central Jersey.

This year, the course is in great condition with smooth fairways and rolling greens.

And the rough along with the wispy grass on missed tee shots adds a nice challenge.

Warning on my playing partners

I've been playing golf for 50 years (started at 12 yrs.)

Never have I been paired with a more strange and potentially dangerous twosome.

After skipping a hole to "play though" a slower 4 some, our threesome caught up with the group ahead of them after a hole or two. These people wanted to play "speed golf". They originally wanted to jump 9's and play the Lake course, were assigned the Ridge and Meadow 9's.

I talked them out of this idea stating that the started would have figured us into our next nine (Ridge) and that we would mess up his system.

One we caught the group ahead the Woman and her Son started hitting as many as 5 balls and chasing them all over the place. I just played my game and would frequently be on the green waiting for them to play whatever ball was currently in play.

The most dangerous part of this twosome would happen when the woman would "reload" a ball and hit a second ball without announcing it. This almost got me hit when the woman hit her second shot into the lake on our finishing hole and as I prepared to hit my shot, I heard "fore" and her unannounced ball drop and shot missed me by few feet off her 3 wood.

I looked for the Starter to warn him as well, but our round concluded later in the afternoon and he was gone.

Once a Year

I try to play Neshanic at least once a year, well worth the 1+ hour drive. We had a perfect day and the course was in very good shape. Somerset County residents have a great set of golf courses.
