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.

NJ Gem

Neshanic is always in great condition. Three 9 hole tracks each with their own style. Make sure you play the right tee box for your skill level. It will keep the round moving and prevent frustration.

Horrible stuff

I had one of the most disappointing and frustrating experiences at Neshanic Valley Golf Course. I booked through GolfNow Hot Deal and came early, especially since the course was practically empty due to the rain. However, the starter absolutely refused to let us go out early, saying because it was a Hot Deal we had to wait an entire hour until our scheduled time.

I’ve played at many courses with GolfNow deals and have never been treated this way. The way it was handled felt not only unreasonable, but also disrespectful — almost like we were being singled out or looked down on simply because we booked a Hot Deal. It left me with the impression of discrimination and poor customer service.

It’s unacceptable to treat paying customers like second-class players. GolfNow Hot Deals should not mean worse treatment. Very disappointed and will think twice before coming back here.

Great Track

By far one of the best public courses I’ve played. I don’t think there is another course at the same price $80 non resident, that is in better shape than this course was. The only ask I would make is that the traps be a little softer. Also provide players with some divot fill so that golfers can do their part in helping maintain the conditions. Otherwise, 10/10 and cannot wait to get back out there. To add, finished my round which was a foursome in 3:45 without having to wait on anyone or vice versa.

This may be the nicest course I've played all season. Everything was close to immaculate. Just wish it were closer.

Solid choice

Field and the greens are in a tip top shape. Good pace of play. Moderate degree of difficulties but very enjoyable. Green fee is a little higher vs. other comparable public courses.in the area but well worth it. Can’t wait to come back and play again.

Great Course

Greens were slower than usual.

Ball marks and divot were not being repaired.

These are my only complaints. i am not a county member but i play here 3-4 times annually. i encouraged my son to join when he moved to Somerset Co and he is glad he did.

Slow play

Played behind an extremely slow group with a player who actually was the man in charge of the course for years! Ridiculous! Guys hit into us 2x...within 10 feet.

Great Venue

Overall, this was an outstanding experience. The only reasons for only 4 stars was the greens were long and slow but I would attribute that to not cutting due to extreme heat and dryness. The ranger seemed overly concerned with pace of play although the group behind was a hole back throughout the round.
