Neshanic Valley Golf Course - Lake/Ridge Course
About
Neshanic Valley Golf Course is a 27-hole layout that sprawls across 420 acres of rolling farmland. It is the flagship course of the five-course Somerset County Park Commission system. The design team of Michael Hurdzan and Dana Fry crafted the layout, which is divided into three nines called the Lake, Ridge, and Meadow. The nines can be played in different 18-hole combinations. The Lake/Ridge Course, as the name would imply, starts out with a few water holes. In addition to the lakes on the front nine, environmentally sensitive wetland areas come into play throughout. The fairways and greens are bordered by ample fescue and the putting surfaces are closely guarded by strategically placed bunkers. Neshanic Valley also offers a nine-hole, par-32 Academy Course, which is great for beginners.

Very nice 18 holes course!
We had excellent experience playing the Ridge-Meadow course, the staff are helpful and friendly, the course is very well maintained, the view is superb, overall it’s fantastic. Will definitely come back to play Lake course later.
Great course
Great course great conditions fun layout challenging holes
Best public course in NJ - beats many private ones
Played on Friday afternoon of Memorial Day weekend. Great staff - easy check in. Starter was friendly. Practice green in great condition. Two of us walked and two took a cart. We played Meadow-Lake combo. We finished Meadow in 2 hours. Lake took a bit longer - 2 hours 15 mins due to a slow group ahead of us. Conditions are fantastic throughout - tee boxes, fairways, bunkers, greens. You won’t find better conditions at many private clubs. Rough is getting thicker so harder to find balls that go in there. Highly recommend playing this course. Thank you Somerset County for the great conditions you maintain here and other county courses also.
Fantastic
It's a true blessing to be able to play such a beautiful course in great shape that isn't private. The staff is also very friendly and professional
Probably one of the top county courses in the state. Great layout with a mixture of difficult and risk reward holes. Very good conditions on rolling terrain but wind does come into play.
