Farmstead Golf & Country Club - Lakeview/Clubview Course
About
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.

Not bad
This course was decent for the golf now price. The course fairways were in very good shape. The sand bunkers need more sand, and they are very hard. Common for the ball to roll over the sand and out. The tee boxes were in okay shape. Some greens needed some work, and were patchy. My biggest issue was with the cups. The flags don't stick upright in many of them and the cup cuts are not crisp so my foursome were rimming in and out all day. I think the cups should be reset and cut more crisply.
Nice to play here
Good course for an intermediate level golfer. Nice layout and friendly staff.

course is really good! would give 5 stars but greens are inconsistent and always slow!!!!!!!!!!! use a heavy putter or put some lead tape on it -2 pieces before u play!!!!! great deal with golfnow! $$$$$
I very nice course
I like the country like feel to the course. Most of the time you can find your ball if you leave the fairway. Water comes into play on several holes. There are two holes on the back 9 of the club 9 where there is a finger of water that protrudes into the fairway that if you haven’t played the course before you wouldn’t know it’s there so be careful. I thought that most of the par 3’s were too long but I loved the wide fairways. In general the conditions were good the fairways were in good shape. The were quite slow and bumpy, they could use a good cut and should be rolled. Overall a fine day on a very nice course.
Golfer friendly course
Played yesterday. I enjoyed playing this course because it is a friendly challenging course for every type of golfer and always in really good shape for as much play it gets.. I recommend you play this really enjoy it !
Fun day out

as always the course was in great shape...course was challenging but forgiving.
Great Time
Even after morning rain the course was in good condition. They had a lunch special when I played and for 45 dollars I got my round with a cart and lunch.
Same as it ever was.
Dependable as always. Welcomed by Scott. Teed off on time. Course is in very good shape. Played in four and a half hours.
Had a great day in a picturesque setting.

good course real good condition good price only negative slow greens!good pace of play today !!4 hr round!!!!
Nice Day on the Links
I played on a Tuesday morning and arrived a bit early. I was greeted by the State who was quite friendly and helpful. He gave me a few options of where to start. The course was basically all mine. Tee boxes, fairways, and most greens were in decent shape for being early in the season. There were a few that were being repaired but not bad at all.
During play I lost my cell phone. The pro shop staff went out of their way to help me. At first I thought it was a loss, but about an hour or so later I got a call and was informed that one of the staff had found it. What a relief. I would definitely recommend this course and give the staff 2 thumbs up.

good coarse good layout good condition!cons no starter!! after paying you have to wait to get a key for the cart!kid behind desk says i'll bring it out in a few minutes! why not give me The key then ??? I HAve to go to the car and get my bag and put on my shoes! so then he tells me a guy im going to play with has a cart outside and to join him! so I find the guy and I tell him im going to take the cart to my car to get my bag! he says ok but I don't have a key! finally someone gives us keys I go get my bag then I go hit some balls in the lake !I come back and the guy is gone with the other 2 guys im suppose to play with!the kid inside tells me they went off on a different nine!! unbelievable!!!!!when the girl is there carrie theres no problems! ok the small flags on the pin that tell hole locations is usually wrong if there is one on the pin to start with !either the person who cuts the hole is lazy or doesn't care I don't know!!!!!!!
Nice place, no crowds today
This place is very nice, but is usually somewhat expensive to ride and ALWAYS slow (5 hrs+).. Today, we started on the ValleyView course, which is much more challenging, but is slightly less good condition (greens, especially). The 2 of us flew thru there, then played LakeView, and were done in slightly less than 3 hrs.
