Flanders Valley Golf Course has received praise as not only one of the best public golf courses in New Jersey, but also as one of the best in the U.S. Flanders offers two 18-hole championship courses, White-to-Blue and Red-to-Gold. The courses are spread across over 400 acres of Morris County's idyllic countryside. The White-to-Blue Course has a more traditional layout that sprawls across mostly flat terrain. The golf course may lack elevation changes but there are an abundance of mature trees to contend with on either side of the course, making it very tight in some spots. One of the most memorable holes is the par-4 14th, nicknamed "Top and Right." This slight dogleg left hole has a pond bordering the entire left side of the fairway.

A top 10 inexpensive public course North NJ

The course conditions are 10x better than when I used to play here 10 years ago. Maintenance is good for the tight muni budget. Many ball marks on the greens but that’s either due to the HS event earlier that day or just NJ/NY people with low awareness or careless for others. A few bunkers were nice with fresh white sand. A few were old, shallow and in need of a few bags of sand. Overall pretty good with low-mid expectations. Would play again at 4 for $23 walking

NO Carts allowed. Only RED tee box open.

Would have appreciated driving on the cart paths. Obviously no one would consider driving on the grass.
I would have brought a smaller bag if i had known.
Course was in good shape for March.

Red White not Blue White

The White 9 were a big improvement over the red 9. Website indicates that Blue white course is open but at this time only red white is open. I would not want to play the red 9 again. Boring flat straight fairways with out many trees. The white course was layer out much better. Conditions were pretty good though only red tee boxes were available. I would come back and play blue white. I was also told the golf course is hilly and challenging but I have no interest in playing the red ever again

Nice course

Not a very challenging course, we played white to red, which is what they have open for the winter, greens had a lot of top dressing making it impossible for the ball to spin , but that’s expected for winter golf. Golf now price was a steal, but once summer comes expect to pay $70+ per round, which in my opinion it’s not worth the money. Overall, very fun layout, very friendly staff.

Very nice public course

Fairways and greens were in great shape at this time of the year. Enjoyed the layout. Tee boxes need a little maintenance.

good in general

This was our first time play there, the course was very wet, it was raining the whole day before. But the course view is nice, lots trees. It will be great if in a good weather, I think.

A great course in Morris County!

Out in western NJ, this course has everything you need in a golf course. Played here, while they were still in winter rates ($25) so we played the White-Red Courses,. White was much more challenging than Red. You have to hit many different types of golf shots due to all the odd lies and angles to the green. I can't wait to come back in the summer. I heard the Gold course was awesome. Super friendly staff.
