Neshanic Valley Golf Course - Meadow/Lake Course
Rating Snapshot
About
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.

One of the best values in New Jersey
Great course layout. Friendly service. Stunning views.
As usual best course in the area and one of the best in NJ
As usual best course in the area and one of the best in NJ
Course was clean . No leaves
Pace of play in we good
Finished 18 holes in 3:45 hours
Started at 1 pm and finished before sunset
Beautiful day at Neshanic
Besides some very slow play by the group in front of us, which was brutal, my group had a nice day at Neshanic. Course is well maintained and even with little rain the past thirty days, it is in great shape. I would definitely recommend Neshanic
Excellent course
Decided to start playing random courses outside my area and fell upon this one. An hour from me, but well worth the drive. Great condition, views and staff. Will definitely make the drive again.
Top notch
Course is in good shape - as expected. Neshanic never disappoints.
We were a 2 some, caught a 4 some 4 holes in and it was slow going from there.
Fortunately we joined a 2 some for our second 9 and the pace of play was fine.
Booked on Golf Now, and played ridge to lake.
Must Play Public
First time for all 4 that played. Course lives up to the hype. Only downside was pace of play, could have used a ranger out there to move the foursome in front of us along. Other than that, course was in great shape and the pricing was fair.
Greens aerated
Greens recently aerated, very bumpy and rolling at 4 maybe. Not that hard to put the “recovery conditions” notification on, annoyed I had to play on terrible greens on a rare Friday off.
