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.

Great course, greens were rough

Greens had been aerated recently. Between the holes and the sand it was tough putting but a nice course. $80/person for no county card is a little high though (with cart)

Too Slow

Tee boxes are terrible. Sand traps are hard as stone; don’t get into any or else! Carts aren’t available when you start and then they move too slow, are dirty and no gps. Not sure what’s going on at this course. Pace of play is terrible! Left after 13 holes.

Poor conditions

The practice green should have been the first clue. Some tee boxes were just dirt. The greens were all in bad shape, the some of the tee boxes were just dirt. I will never be back. I play at a Union County golf course. Galloping Hill, and it's a country club in comparison.

Where are the carts?

The golf course had a cart problem by 10Am that morning, hwere all 100 carts were out. This constraint reated some confusion and lended to a messy start for most players. When a cra fee is $21, you'd expect them be avaitable. Course condition was just OK, as alot of the fairways are starting to burn out. cnditions so dry that they felt like cement. Bunkers were worse, as they abrely have a dusting of soft sand on top of a rock hard layer (and some pebbles to mess up your wedges)
