Neshanic Valley Golf Course is a 27-hole layout that sprawls across 420 acres of rolling farmland. It is the flagship course of the five-course Somerset County Park Commission system. The design team of Michael Hurdzan and Dana Fry crafted the layout, which is divided into three nines called the Lake, Ridge, and Meadow. The nines can be played in different 18-hole combinations. The Lake/Ridge Course, as the name would imply, starts out with a few water holes. In addition to the lakes on the front nine, environmentally sensitive wetland areas come into play throughout. The fairways and greens are bordered by ample fescue and the putting surfaces are closely guarded by strategically placed bunkers. Neshanic Valley also offers a nine-hole, par-32 Academy Course, which is great for beginners.

Nice layout, greens are too slow
It felt like i was putting on the fairway with the greens. The course is beautiful though so i'll take it. The 4some behind us hit into our group a few times which was rude.

I've played the course before, I'm cheap and thought I got a great deal for a twilight time which is what I like. Played in 3 hours by myself and only took that long because of rain it was cart path only. All 3 nines have nice mixture of challenges. Play from the right tees and it could be fun or torture! Only problem I had was there was no place to get even a drink of water. Was afraid to take my meds thinking i would choke. BRING WATER! Great staff!

Love It
Discovered Neshanic end of 2021. Have played course about 7 times. Their are 3 nines. Can’t go wrong with any of them. Nice driving range and the putting green is true to the course. Can’t beat the price for one of the best public golf courses in the state. Wish it was closer than an hour from home.

Course Layout
Two things to consider if that happens, one, call the pro shop and ask that a ranger come out and toss the jerks off the course, or hit the ball back at the person who hit into your group, sometimes 2 wrongs make a right.
