Neshanic Valley Golf Course - Lake/Ridge Course
Rating Snapshot
About
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.

I hate playing a nice course After it has been aerated. They said that they were alternating nines but two out of three nines were aerated and it made greens impossible to putt. Thus it was a bad experience and not worth the money.
Best public course in NJ
IMO best public course in NJ, always immaculate. Layout is challenging but fun, no holes that seem out of place or not interesting. Overall awesome course, 70$ for this course is a steal, could easily charge 100$+
Fantastic day
The facility is magnificent. From the driving range to the executive 9 hole to the clubhouse to the 27 hole complex. The course is in magnificent shape with dark green grass and golden fescue. The staff is welcoming and the proshop offers affordable golf wear. Highly recommend.
Consistently enjoyable
Neshanic never disappoints, and I've been playing there since it first opened. Busy day but pace was good with groups properly spaced. The conditions were top-notch.
It is a bit pricey for out-of-county golfers but worth it for the occasional treat-yourself round.
Great course
great course. never disappoints. there was a mix up with GolfNow and the Somerset computer systems. they didnt have us booked. i showed the person behind the desk my confirmation. he said look you have it cancelled. i told him the first one i did cancel but the second shows i re-booked using promo code. i told him to look at the time stamps.and shows we were booked! he still thought i was lying so i had to get GolfNow on the phone. Bottom line is the course did get me and my wife out in reasonable time. i had 2 more promo codes sent to me from GolfNow. Just aggravated the guy thought i was lying. Obviously NOT a people person
Great Course
Highly recommend playing, course in very good shape. Played over month ago and not in as good of shape, as expected with all the play but still fairways and greens very nice. Rough is very high and tough to get out, can’t wait to play again.
One of the top courses in NJ
Have been playing Neshanic over 10+ years. Always a pleasure to come and play. Course is always in a great shape. Pace of play is excellent. Staff could be a little friendlier. Overall A++.
