Farmstead Golf & Country Club - Valleyview/Lakeview Course

The location is exceptional - rustic NJ with a ton of land and lakes, hills, and valleys. The course is well maintained and with the exception of too many ball marks that were not repaired (unfortunately typical these days and not really something the course can control) the greens rolled true and had decent speed (not lightning quick but not too slow or fuzzy). We played at 4:30pm and unfortunately the tee times were running 15 minutes late due to a cart shortage - disappointing given the fact that we knew we were pressed for time already. And the first 2-3 holes were backed up but then the pace of play got better as the front 9 went on. Overall a worthwhile experience.

I play here twice a month. Overall, I really enjoy it. 3 Nine Hole course. Lakeview and Clubview are best of the 3 9s. Valley view is a little short and narrow. Also, $30 riding after 4. Cant beat that. Cart attendants are out past noon which is nice. Very friendly staff.

Farmstead is in beautiful shape. I'd recommend playing here anytime. From tee box to green it's fantastic!

greens needed divot care, fairways in good condition, rough well trimmed. course is always fun and a little different on each hole. Lots of wildlife. Little algae accumulation on corners of water holes, but generally not buggy. efficient staff and good grill and restaurant food and service.

The only thing I can complain about is the t boxes.Needs a lot of work. Everything else was fine.

Lake/Club is always good. Tee boxes are getting beaten up, but that’s expected in late August into September. Please get the hot dog from the halfway house. It’s the best!

Course was in good condition considering it rained a lot the day before especially the greens. The starter wasn’t too friendly and I never liked the fact they don’t let you take the cart until a few minutes before tee time. Hot dog was yummy

I just wanna say the starter is only staff member that was a problem rest of employees were cool. Starter sits in a cart and just barks orders at people, not very golfer friendly. To me it’s not worth the hour drive and money to play on average conditions. Slow play was annoying if we got 18 in would’ve been 5 hour round no rangers out to police pace. Played it almost 10 times, definitely last time. Good for the locals but not worth the drive, and way overpriced

If you like teeing off on a hilly patchy and uncut tee box this is the place for you. Greens patchy course layout not fun at all. Terrible drainage.

Comparable to many much higher priced courses in the area. Lake/club was very enjoyable. Only issue is ball marks on greens not repaired. But that's on the golfers. Beautiful setting and great course conditions overall. Will be a regular
