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.

great to be out

course layout fantastic, conditions beautifully maintained, greens divit free, and sand traps are beautiful to be in. ponds can use a little algea treatment but overall a great golfing experience. Just a little nervous seeing so few of the staffers without face masks.

Lake View nine was great, good condition and some pretty holes. The Valley nine was pretty weak, so if you play this course make sure you play the Lake and Club nines. Staff is always very friendly and helpful.

Great course

Wonderful course for my first round of the year. Pretty great condition for early March. This course has tough placements and some tight shots are required with all the water that comes into play.

Gotta check it out!
