Rating 73.6

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.

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!

First time playing snow golf

Friend and I got a great deal on GolfNow but we should’ve checked the weather forecast before confirming. It was cold, windy and we even saw some snow flurries in the mix. We played Ridge to Lake. But the course was in a great condition: tee boxes and greens were superb for winter and the fairways were well maintained. I was very impressed with how fluffy the sand was in the bunkers. They definitely maintain this course. 18 was my favorite hole but there a lot of challenging holes. I had a fun time watching my drives sit in the air for 5 seconds, only to travel 120 yards. Can’t wait to return in the spring or summer to get a proper look at the courses.

Great Winter course

Always a good time the Neshanic Valley golf course. 3 really good 9 hole courses. The courses drain well , if it is clear of snow & above freezing they are open. Layout is top notch.
