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.

Very comfortable course
Farmstead is a friendly course with enough challenges to make it a great place to play. And, the scenery is awesome
Nice layout -great staff.
Course is in good shape for the amount of play it gets. Fun layout. A few tee boxes were in rough shape, but expected this time of year with all the play.
Greens were fine. Bunkers could use a little more sand. Rough is not overly done, fair if you find it.
One of my favorites
I've played the club/valley 18 two times now, and both times I've been impressed by the entire course, the conditions, the kind staff, and the excellent pace of play. The club 9 is a nice warmup to the much more difficult valley 9, but together they make for a challenging but rewarding 18 holes. I would definitely recommend this course.
farmstead
why cant they put the pin locator on the pin in the correct place.3 were off by 40ft. ???lazy-don't care??this is a ongoing problem!!!!!!
My New Favorite Place in NJ
Played the Lake course. What a fun course. But the whole experience was great from the course to the staff and restaurant and snack bar. 45 mins from my house but so worth it. I thank you
Course was in good shape. A couple of the Tee boxes were somewhat beat up but this is to be expected on a Saturday in the summer. The layout of the course is really nice with water around most of the holes. The people at the club house were quite friendly. There is a chipping and putting green available.
Right up there with the Crystal Springs courses next door!
Farmstead really keeps everything nice and tidy. Absolutely beautiful holes, manicured greens, and wildlife a’plenty. No condos or townhomes lining any fairways (that I’d inevitably smoke with a wicked slice). I was the second tee time of the day as a solo player - the foursome in front of me let me play through on the third hole and it was smooth sailing from there.
Finished in under three hours and was home by 9:30.
Staff is super friendly and i will gladly go back there again. Bravo, Farmstead. Bravo!
Beautiful scenery
Great course. Very well maintained and scenic. Love this course!
This golf course will test you
