Length 7036 yards
Slope 135
Rating 73.5

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.

Fix your ballmarks people!

Greens were just punched and dressed with sand, but, that's no excuse not to repair ball marks. In fact because the greens were softer the resulting ball marks looked like craters on the moon and easy to see. Show some respect, don't be clowns.

2nd Time Back

I played here one time last year and always wanted to come back. Got a HotDeal on Golf Now, so this was my chance. Played Meadow/Ridge, Meadow I played last year, Ridge was new to me, I enjoyed it. Was told Blue tees equal to white so we played off them, had alot of long 2nd shots all day, think I'll move up to silver next time. Aeration warning when I took tee time, but they were working on the other 9 this day, our 9's were scheduled for the next days. Greens were great and challenging. Loved the $4 foot long hot dog too.

GOOD AND NOT GOOD

Ten AM tee time on a beautiful but very windy day. The course was great as usual. Five hour round. The staff did not make any attempt to speed up play that I could see.

When it is crowded, this course should not allow walkers.

Awesome Time

Great course, fabulous condition. Staff was friendly and helpful. Conditions were awesome, firm smooth greens, flawless fairways. Pace of play a bit slow, but a small outing backed things up a bit. Staff was friendly and helpful, good tips from the starter on some of the intricacies of the course. Excellent value for a top quality venue!

Great course! But staff not so much.

I walked in for 10AM tee time. The person in the counter did even say Good Morning or welcome. I asked can I use the range"range is closed" that's it. He then tells me that are mowing it. It's 10AM!!! Why are they cutting the grass on the range knowing there are many people waiting to use the range.

*** I then realized the whole day they had workers cutting the grass, fixing bunkers, all through out the time we were playing.

I just don't understand how they can't do it earlier in the morning like other courses.

Other then that, the Ranger was good, course was great, but the guy working behind the counter needs to change his attitude.

Be straight!

A very nice course. Probably the best county course in the area. Tee boxes, fairways and greens are in excellent shape and well maintained. Greens were a little slower today than in the past but true.

Course layout is quite nice with some challenging holes thrown in. The first cut of rough is quite high and second shots will depend on how your ball lies. The fescue is almost impossible to hit out of. You better hit straight on this course or there will be a lot of lost balls!

Overall a good day out and a good test of golf.

Great weekend morning on the links

The course is in great shape. We played the Meadow and Lake 9s on a Saturday morning in under 4 hours. The course was in great shape - greens rolled true, fairways were healthy, green, and well maintained. We played the gold tees which play at 6,645 yards. A very challenging course but not overly punishing. Many tee shots are fairly open which helps inspire confidence when needing a big drive on a long hole. Overall it was a great day of golf.
