Water comes into play on six holes on the Lakeview nine at the 27-hole Farmstead Golf & Country Club, which is located in northwest New Jersey approximately an hour from New York City. None is more challenging than the closing hole, a very short -- but very intimidating -- par 3 over water. The Byron Phoebus design opened in 1965.

Very Impressed

Unlike some courses this place was GOLD. Only issue was pace of play by the two (2) in front of us that were at one point almost 2 full holes behind. Someone we played with spoke to the ranger at the turn he literality turn the OTHER way a drove off. We had a great time beside and look forward to coming back.

Solid Course…skip Valleyview if you can.

The Club and Lake nines are the ones to play. Skip the Valleyview nine if you can, doesn’t compare to the better ones Club and Lake.

Great course for the Value

Course conditions were great after the week of rain. Though I did think the fairways and greens could’ve been cut before the weekend, it is what it is. Excellent course conditions regardless of my minor quirks. Farmstead always knocks it out of the park. It’s always a pleasure to come back.

Great course

So the course is great but the person I was paired up with made playing super stressful as he was yelling at other players. He went off a few times to smoke weed, would have thought it mellowed him out but seemed to make him more agitated. The course and staff are nice and I will be back with my regular golf partner. I'll be reluctant to book a time where I don't play with someone I know.
