Farmstead Golf & Country Club - Valleyview/Lakeview Course
Rating Snapshot
About
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.

nice layout with a mix of challenging holes
I enjoy playing this course. Just the right amount of variation to require using every club in the bag. A few short par fours that allow you to hit iron off the tee. The strategically placed water hazards require accurate shot making on several holes.
Played early this season on winter greens but they rolled ok, my putting was horrible. I wish could blame the greens for missing at least 5 10ft birdie putts but I can't.
staff very kind, course beautiful, challenging
It is my first time playing there. I feel very comfortable. Staff is very kind and polite. Course is beautiful .
Excellant
This course was in PERFECT shape.........leaves were being blown from the fairways all morning. The pace was very good.
I will play Farmstead again..........i recommend this course!
This course has a nice variety of holes.
The course is always in great shape and I would put it up against
any of the other top public courses in the state.
Very playable course
3 9 hole courses with pretty views and friendly fairways.
Food in restaurant also good. Halfway house has quick snack or lunch.
great course...great condition....very nice design.
greens are always in great shape. The course is a very nice design...great value. Fairways always nice....worth playing!
Greens were sandy and tee boxes a mess
The greens had been aerated but the loose sand was awful. The tee boxes were not mowed and did not provide an even lie. We played 9 holes in 3 hours and went to the seldom used Valley course just to get our 18 holes in.
