The Valleyview nine is the most difficult course at the 27-hole Farmstead Golf & Country Club, which is located in northwest New Jersey approximately one hour from New York City. Small greens, tree-lined fairways, hilly terrain and out of bounds on seven of nine holes are among the reasons the Valleyview nine is a test. The Byron Phoebus design opened in 1979.

Fun December Day with My Son!

Started off great with the pro behind the cash register being very kind, and then only having to pay $34 to walk (this course is very easy to walk...).

Tees and fairways and greens were in great shape for the winter. A bit slow in front of us, but, hey, nothing to complain about...just gave me a little more time to shoot the bull with my son. Played from the whites which were up pretty far up, so had no problem shooting my mid-70s round....lol. PS. When we got here we realized my son had played a US Kids Tournament here 10 years earlier... So it was cool to see him break 40 on the back nine and bring back some great memories of him playing well here when he was younger...

Thanks for being open, Farmstead. It's much appreciated!!

Course in fantastic shape for mid December. No leaves or branches anywhere, bunkers raked, rough was under control. Great pace of play as everyone out there wanted to finish before dark. Teed off at 12 and finished 3:45. Thanks to Scott and the staff for a very enjoyable round.
