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.

Hire a Ranger and Cut the Greens

Course conditions were decent for late October. The greens must not have been cut in a couple days so putting was rough. The bigger issue was pace of play and zero stars would be appropriate if that was an option. A sub 4 hour round was turned into a 5 hour round by a rude group who had no course etiquette and no ranger on the course to prevent them from jamming the course up and causing waits on every shot.

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.

Course is well maintained and a pleasure to play. Pace of play was quite good given it was a holiday. This was the first time I played the Club view.
