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.

A little too open, fairways a little too wide. Otherwise just about perfect.

Great Links style course

I have been playing here for a couple of years now. I love this course but lately the greens are bumpy and not cut like when this course was being prepped for that Women's Amateur championship.

Maybe they are short of staff to maintain the course but it sure a shame CZ this used to be a very nice course on PAR with some expensive private clubs. It is quite pricey to play in this county course, they have to keep up the high quality golf course that' they used to have when they first opened it for play.

The course layout is challenging and yet fair, keep your approach shots on the green and better yet, try to get as close to the flag. If not these bumpy greens will mess up

you score big time. When am paying top dollars I expect these greens to be cut and rolled properly that way we can really have a nice and fast greens that's good for cleaning out some pockets...just enjoying friendly wager to keep golf a bit more exciting..

I still bring my buddies here...they all notice that it is not what it used to be....

The course is beautiful

Have not played Neshanic in a few years, but the course is in great shape and is a beauty. Keep your ball in the short grass or you won't find it.

Aerification

Although they were aerated a few weeks ago, the greens were like putting on a burlap sack.

Great links course

Aération was made in mid August and the greens didn't get at their total recovery. 2weeks more and they should be perfect as usual.

Unfriendly staff

My friends and I arrive at the course early for our tee time we askef politely if we would be able to go out earlier the course adamantly refused to do so they were extremely rude and 100% I'm customer friendly doing this interaction I understand the policy however I thought they could've handled this matter 100% better than what they did.

Sunday afternoon behind untucked shirts

Course is in great shape, just starting to get warmer weather so the fairways were still lush and running, greens were fairly accepting and quick.

Love the course, but played behind two foursomes who were extremely slow. Frustrating to get any rhythm going when you're waiting on most shots.

The kicker was 17 on Meadow, literally waited 12 minutes on our approach into the green as our un-tucked knuckleheads searched for a lost ball. Play during the week, your timing will be much more acceptable.
