Rating 69.9

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.

Always Good

Go to Bagel Station, which is on the way on Route 15. Grab a bagel, and head over to Farmstead. It’s a fun course to play, but make sure to play the Lake/Club rotation. It’s a very fair layout, and you will have a good time. Don’t forget the amazing hot dog at the turn.

Great conditions for late April, with fresh sand being put in some of the bunkers.

Course

Course was in fantastic shape . Greens were good . Hole placements were fair . Just need to fix hole 8. Hole 8 has just about no window to drive through do to large branches extending from the tree on the right . trim a few branches and you got yourself a good hole .

Great condition

Course was in great shape for this time of year. Couldn’t have asked for better conditions. Only bad thing was the sand traps (luckily I was only in one). Had a great time. Would def play again and recommend
