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.

Awesome

Course was in beautiful shape. Only thing I didn't like was how slow the greens are.

Average course

I used to hear how beautiful and nice the Neshanic Course is, and believe it or not i wasn’t that much impressed at all!

There are no bathrooms on the course, there is absolutely no shade on the course, and they had chips for sales for food. As far as I’m concerned this place is a money and a ball trap!!!

Consistent

Always in good shape. Great staff, and have been terrific during pandemic. My favorite in the area. Obviously, best of the county rota.

One of the finest courses in NJ

Neshanic Valley is a top notch course that will not disappoint.

Pace of play was good. Played a fair number of courses in the Tri state area and this is one of the few courses with bunkers that were actually playable. Greens were in good condition. Overall a very good experience.

A great place to play

A very nice layout...visually very appealing. Greens are not that challenging, which helps with pace of play on a County course. The staff is very friendly. Word to the wise: be straight off the tee because the environmental areas will eat you up otherwise!

Great course

Neshanic is a challenging course that’s always in great condition. Play from the tees that match your handicap or it will be too difficult. Stay out of the fescue or you’ll have a long day! Staff always pleasant.
