Neshanic Valley Golf Course - Meadow/Ridge Course

We played the Meadows-Ridge layout and it was a lot of fun. First the good stuff - the layout is always great on all 3 of the 9 holes. The course was in really good shape. They don't provide dirt for replacing divots so there are some areas with a lot of divots in the fairways and run off areas. Greens are always fun and definitely have break in them. They were super fast but fast enough, while at the same time, putting uphill required an extra punch.

Some of the negatives - despite all groups taking carts, there was some serious pace of play issues. We played Meadows in less than 2 hours. Ridge took 2 hours 25 minutes. The culprit was 2 groups ahead of us and without a ranger pushing people, it was slow.

It was a scorcher with a heat index above 100 degrees. The cart girl was not consistently coming through and there's ZERO water on the course. This makes golf in heat very difficult. Sometimes it's just nice to have water on the course to be able to soak your towel in to put on your head and neck.

Overall, a great course with good conditions. It just needs to better for the golfers who need water. Please make the pace of play better! it's too good of a track to have this be the problem.

The course was overall in very good condition. My only gripe would be that the greens were slow and inconsistent, we could never get a good feel for them. We played the Ridge & Meadow nine’s. I really like the course, the holes offer a nice challenge with several “risk/reward” options.

The staff were all very friendly. We teed off in the afternoon so the 19th hole was closed by the time we finished at 7:00 pm. I’d recommend the Riverside Inn which is only a few minutes away.

My only issue. After playing we went to the bar. It was very small and hot. No AC. The waitress was great. After playing in 90degree weather it would be nice to have a cold one in a comfortable atmosphere.

Good condition , pace of play good, greens rolled true, traps good. Tee Boxes a little messy . But overall right up there . If in the area prefer Herron Glen as best option over Neshanic , But up there in top 20 public course.

The course was in pristine condition. The greens rolled true and fast, and the bunkers were exceptionally well-maintained. I was thoroughly impressed and will definitely be back to play again.”
