About
Sunset Valley Golf Course is consistently ranked as one of the best public courses in New Jersey. It is one of four golf courses in the Morris County Parks system and it's considered the toughest. Located in Pompton Plains, the course is nestled in a wooded valley. It has a dramatic topography that provides plenty of ups and downs throughout the golf course. Golfers can expect a variety of elevation changes as well as a few blind shots and forced carries. Strategically placed bunkers come into play along the fast, undulating greens and mature trees line the rolling fairways. Water hazards come into play on a few holes too. Sunset Valley Golf Course's final three holes present one of the area's toughest finishes. The trio begins with the uphill par-5 16th and then finishes with two long par 4s.

Golfer Reviews
The greens were aerated and tough to putt on. The tees were chopped up. It was disappointing because the course is usually in better condition. I’m
Nice Course
The condition of the course overall was very good,the fairways were cut and in good condition,the greens were also very good,the food was at a high cost,could be much lower for a public course,no one in our group bought anything at all !!!!
Great course
Slow play and cart path only rule in force because of heavy rains Trop storm Henri.
Keep up the pace
Staff and Rangers very polite and friendly. Perhaps too nice to groups that play slow.
The course is very good. Staffs are very friendly. Want to play again.
Nestled between some small mountains that create nice views,, course layout on front 9 presented some challenge but very fair. Greens have plenty of tricky slopes, make sure you’re on the right side of the pin. Couldn’t review the back 9 since Mother Nature decided to rain heavily locally in the area to abort the round. Will definitely return.
Challenging Greens
The greens are very challenging because of the characteristics of the course by nature but a lot golfers didn’t fix their divots. Also, the price for the golf cart are excessive too.
Beautiful course
Course is in pristine shape and the greens are very difficult. Beautiful place, a little pricey but a lot of fun!
Nice fun course
Tricky greens but fair Price was without a cart so make sure you look at that before booking
