Neshanic Valley Golf Course - Meadow/Ridge Course
About
Neshanic Valley Golf Course is a 27-hole layout that was designed by the renowned team of Michael Hurdzan and Dana Fry. The course is divided into three nines that can be played in different 18-hole combinations. The nines -- the Lake, Ridge, and Meadow -- are named after the different features of the varied terrain but each par-36 nine has five different sets of tees, which provides playing options for all skill levels. On the Meadow/Ridge Course you'll find ample fescue along the fairways and greens. The greens are especially tricky since not only are they framed by massive bunkers, the putting surfaces are also contoured. Though the slopes are subtle, they can be very tricky. There is a pond on the front nine and environmentally sensitive wetlands come into play throughout.

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.
Great Golf
A wonderful albeit Difficult 18 in a Beautiful Valley with plenty of Challenges Elevation changes and quick Greens .. Loved it will be back soon
A Fun Links-y Course in Good Condition
Neshanic Valley GC offers a visually appealing links-style golf course that's well maintained and a very good value.
This was my first Hurdzan/Fry designed course and found it very appealing with nice wide-open fairways, some different angles to play from, and fair greens.
Overall the conditions were also very good with nice even and thick rough, lush fairways, and greens that rolled true, despite being slower than normal (apparently) from aeration a few weeks back.
The starter was thorough in his pre-round overview (there was a lot of COVID-19 restrictions to go over) and overall I found the round to be a good value. Would definitely come back and play here again, I'm curious to see how the faster greens would play differently.

Twilight???
I love this facility, but come on now. $50 for a 6:15pm tee time??? What ever happened to twilight rates? And we needed to have the carts back by 8pm. Fortunately we finished nine holes.....
What’s wrong ??
I arrived 3 minutes before my T time
I was received with a lecture on importance of arriving at least 15 min early. I was asked if I am familiar with course and I said yes, however that lecture continues to tell me how to use the cart and what to avoid. I have no problem if the attitude was friendly but it was not.
The treatment was awkward and abnormal for this course
I play most of my rounds in this course and never had a problem
I will give it another chance but I meet this attitude again I will decide if I should continue playing in this course
Why?
My "home course" is Mattawang in Hillsborough , NJ. On there personal web site I can reserve a tee time for one person. On your site the requirement is two people.. Why?
Since the virus , Mattawang no longer offer tee time on their site...and I can not play on your site as i am a single, Why?.
Somerset County’s Best
Neshanic has three links style 9s Ridge, Lake and Meadow. Generous fairways, consistent good course conditions and a wide variety of hole design make ever round fun. The wind and fescue are the courses primary defense. Enjoy!
