Rating 72.6

Flanders Valley Golf Course boasts two championship courses that sprawl across the rolling countryside of Morris County. The facility is considered one of the best public golf courses in New Jersey and has even been ranked as one of the top 75 public courses in the country. The Red-to-Gold Course has a hillier terrain than the other course, White-to-Blue, which has a more traditional design. It is the more challenging of the two courses with mature trees scattered throughout and uneven lies provided by the elevation changes, which also offer scenic views of the idyllic surroundings. The Red-to-Gold's seventh hole is the most difficult of all the 36 holes at Flanders. This tricky par 4 has trees flanking both sides and it is also subject to the prevailing winds.

Fairways soaked and bunkers not playable

Course was still drying out from previous heavy rain. Lots of Fairways soaked. Many bunkers if not all were filled with water. Rough was think.

Should get better as course dries out.

Very Nice & Enjoyable! Recommended!!

Played the Blue & White and enjoyed both w 2 nice locals (Amy & Kevin) who were helpful and a pleasure to meet. The courses were in good condition except due to the rain in the AM, ruled 'cart path only' and although the layouts are fairly flat, looking & walking to your balls made the pace (5 hrs!) much slower. The greens were in pretty good shape, fairways and tee boxes were soft (from rain) but ironically the bunkers were hard and rocky (need help).

The food stand concession needs faster,easier procedures to get serviced efficiently. But, overall had an enjoyable time and look forward to trying the Gold & Red. (Hopefully with open cart pathways).

Mixed feelings after my first round. Staff is A+ and most of the course is in pretty good shape, with two exceptions: tee boxes and the length of fairway grass. Just no excuse to charge $75 walking and have furry fairways & chewed up tees.

I don’t live close by so it’s definitely not worth it for me.

Nice Muni Course

Wide fairways and large greens, few obstructions. Greens are moderate speed, uneven at times but good considering the amount of play the course gets.

Fairways are reasonable and the rough is playable so as to move play along. Most holes are straight forward with little water. Traps are minimal but sand is hard in most. This was my first time playing this course and was chosen as it is equal distance between the guys in our foursome. There is no driving range to warm up and only a putting green with no pitching or chipping allowed. None of us scored well but we really couldn't blame it on the course which was more than gettable.

There was no bar or restaurant but a outdoor "Tiki Hut" bar and grill was adequate for a quick beer. They did have a beer cart traveling the course to offer refreshments.

Pace of play is an issue

They need to bring the rangers back. The course is great but the pace of play is atrocious. Rolling up to each tee box and the group in front of us has yet to hit one tee shot yet. Terrible

Afternoon Round

3pm Tee Time was only 10 minutes behind schedule due to an event that day. Seemed like the pace of play was ok on the front 9 but at the turn, it slowed down quite a bit. No sign of Marshall at all. Basically played speed golf the last 3 holes.

Course was in good shape. Tee boxes were good, greens were good. Some minor issues that needed attention, mainly because of players not repairing their divots.

Overall, I was happy with the course that day but the pace of play is always an issue later in the day. Barely finished the round.

Pace of play

Course was nice however we had a 6+hr round. Several calls to the shop/starter were made but no action appeared to have been taken.

Due to the slow traffic and pace of play, other groups started cutting ahead. Again, did not appear to be a ranger or others in control of the situation.

Great MDW round

Course itself was nice and a great place to take my friend for her first time on an actual golf course. The personnel were older white men who saw two younger women and immediately assumed we were with men or we didn’t know what we were doing.
