KemperSports has a new partnership with Morris County Park Commission (N.J.) to manage Berkshire Valley, Flanders Valley, Pinch Brook, and Sunset Valley – each recognized as among the finer public courses in the state.
“KemperSports has a track record of providing exceptional service and a best-in-class golf experience to their guests,” said Dave Helmer, Executive Director of Morris County Park Commission. “Their experience and innate knowledge of the Northeast golf market will be a tremendous benefit to golfers in Morris County and beyond.”
Berkshire Valley, designed by Roger Rulewich and opened in 2004, is located amid 600 acres in the Highlands region of Northern New Jersey.
Located in Flanders, N.J., approximately 40 miles west of Newark, Flanders Valley includes a pair of 18-hole championship golf courses. The Blue-to-White course (or “Inner 18” as it’s referred to by local golfers) is a picturesque traditional tree-lined countryside golf course while the Gold-to-Red (“outer 18”) plays along the outside of the property with more elevation changes and views of the surrounding countryside.
Pinch Brook Golf Course is an executive-length golf course created by the design team of Rees Jones when it opened in 1983. The par-62, 5,000-yard layout has water on most holes, including a lake on the 7th hole shaped to look like New Jersey.
The portfolio is rounded out by Sunset Valley Golf Course in Pompton Plains, N.J. The course was designed by Hal Purdy and opened in 1974. Sunset Valley is widely recognized as one of the best courses in the state.
“Morris County has a wonderful selection of outstanding golf courses,” said KemperSports CEO Steve Skinner. “We look forward to partnering with the County and community to elevate the experience at each of these clubs and continue to grow the game.”
KemperSports’ rapidly growing portfolio continues to thrive across the country with a strong presence in the New York and New Jersey markets. KemperSports now manages 16 golf courses, sports complexes, and athletic venues in New York and New Jersey, including partnerships with Union County (N.J.) and the New York Parks Department.
