Berkshire Valley Golf Course
About
Berkshire Valley has a scenic location in the Highlands region of northern New Jersey. It is known as one of best public golf courses in the area. The course is perched atop the ridge of Green Pond Mountain, providing a dramatic topography for a challenging round of golf. The front of the golf course was carefully carved from a hillside, featuring narrow fairways that place a premium on accuracy. The first five holes are particularly scenic as well as formidable. There are some open holes that play along the cliffs, subjecting them to the prevailing winds, one of these is the intimidating par-5 third. The Berkshire Valley golf course finishes with its signature hole. This hole can be deceiving since it has a generous fairway, but the second shot is uphill to a tough green.

Great course slow play
Berkshire has an incredible view from the 1st tee box!
However its pace of play during the WEEK 4:45- 5 hrs every time Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays! The grill on the course makes very good hot dogs and hamburgers but NO lettuce and tomato for it
Coarse was in great shape across the board especially the greens fast & flat Beautiful as always . The perfect challenge spread out along 18 holes . You’re missing out if you haven’t played this coarse . And at $52 dallar for county residents it’s a bargain .
First time back in 6 years
Love Berkshire, everything I remember it being the first few times I was here and wish I could play it more often! Layout is great and conditions are always pure.
*******
Course in very nice condition except for all the divots on the greens…what’s up with that..? Otherwise great deal for $38 twilight.
Shame on the locals.......
This has got to be one of the prettiest courses in NJ. The first 3 holes run along the ridgeline giving incredible views and the fall colors were starting to show.
The sad part of the story is the way the golfers treat the course. I've never seen a course with so many unrepaired divots and ball marks on the greens. I never saw a single person fix either while playing. You may say it's the greens keepers job but from the looks of some of the holes you'd need a keeper behind every foursome.
At the end of the round I said something to the pro shop manager who simply shook his head in disappointment.
So sad to see such a beautiful course be treated soooooo badly.
I will go back again but I'll take a couple of extra sand bottles to try to fill some extra marks.
Fantastic shape.
Course was in fantastic shape. Greens were some of the fastest I've played. Always blown away that this is a public course. Always a treat.
One of the best
Beautiful golf course Great layout consistent greens. Challenging but fair starter very accommodating Excellent round of golf
