Sunset Valley Golf Course
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.

Good layout. Well kept.
I want to come back in the spring.
Fairy maintained considering winter weather.
It was ok.
Starter did not keep 10 minutes interval.
So everybody should wait unnecessarily.
Great day out
Only the second time playing here and a great course. The weather was supposed to be 46 but only made it to 40 with some gusty wind at time. Course was in great condition for the time of year, cart path only and a few greens relocated for good reason and preservation. The price for the round was adjusted accordingly and all in all a great day out. Being able to playing golf in the North East on January 6th is a good thing, especially with 12-18" of snow on the ground 2 weeks ago! Kudo's to the ground crew.....
Beautiful course
It’s really well maintained beautiful course. I was very impressed of good condition compare to other public course. I will definitely visit again.
