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.

Played 2 weeks in a row
My only objection to this place is that it is perfect for outings and I hate outings. I like to play and walk on Fridays, and this course is perfect for this. I also walk Bethpage Black

Can't beat it for the money
Course was in pretty good shape. Fairways and rough were a little hairy but very playable. Greens had really good speed and in nice shape. I highly recommend specially for the price.
