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.

Greens were horrible

Should have been a discounted round of golf considering how bad the greens were. Just aerated? Discount. Nice design though

AERATED!!!

Normally a great time a Farmstead.

Hate when a course doesn’t let you know there’s aerated greens.

Course otherwise in good shape.

Staff friendly.

Need a second attendant at the snack shack.

nice place needs improvement

the scenery here is great, I don't know why the starter is always miserable. A group of 2 girls and 2 guys painfully slow backed up the course for a half hour and no ranger in sight. The club 9 was in much better shape than the valley 9

Fall golf

Played on Friday, October 20. And it lasted for hours and 40 minutes. Mainly due to playing with a golfer who never played before. Tried to be helpful but spent most of the time waiting for him to hit or searching for his golf balls. The course itself was in good condition however they were a few tee boxes that were beat up. Greens were recently aerated and sandy.
