Flanders Valley Golf Course has received praise as not only one of the best public golf courses in New Jersey, but also as one of the best in the U.S. Flanders offers two 18-hole championship courses, White-to-Blue and Red-to-Gold. The courses are spread across over 400 acres of Morris County's idyllic countryside. The White-to-Blue Course has a more traditional layout that sprawls across mostly flat terrain. The golf course may lack elevation changes but there are an abundance of mature trees to contend with on either side of the course, making it very tight in some spots. One of the most memorable holes is the par-4 14th, nicknamed "Top and Right." This slight dogleg left hole has a pond bordering the entire left side of the fairway.

This course in great shape. Golf now should negotiate a price with the cart instead of walking only price!!

Great Course!

Really nice course. Only thing they need is more refreshment people. Saw them twice once on hole 1 and the second time was on hole 9 but they didn't even stop.

Golf Now overcharges

I paid $225 for foursome on a hot deal that I later found out I could’ve had for half the price by just paying at the course. There is no Customerservice to get a hold up to question them please beware.

Good round

Good course. Greens are always in great shape. The pricing though is a bit steep for a Friday holiday round.

Too slow

I have played here 5 times over the last 2 years-finished the round once…pace of play is pathetically slow, no rangers in site…this round, left after 9 that took 2.5 hours (blue/white) last week hoped gold/red would be better, walked off at the 12th (3:50 hrs)…Booked via Hot Deals so the cost was manageable, but have accepted the fact that I’ll never waist my time at Flanders going forward…

Course is over priced

I believe the course is overpriced for what you get to drive it’s $25 for the cart for one person so if you have two players they charge you $50 to drive that’s very unfair

Pleasant surprise

The course was in very good condition considering the brutal winter north Jersey endured. Played the Blue/White with all tee boxes open and greens running true although a bit slower than normal.

Maintenance did an amazing job keeping the course free of leaves and broken limbs before opening up this year! The rough was thin in some areas, but fairways were in excellent shape!

First of many visits here this year!

Flanders Valley is behind

Flanders valley course is always in good/great condition. However, the pace of play is pretty bad. Always waiting at some point during your round. Food isn’t great and overall you are overpaying for your round. I mean $25 per person for a golf cart is ridiculous (I walk so doesn’t affect me but just throwing that out there). I feel like they can improve in multiple areas compared to other courses in NJ that offer more for the same amount of money.
