KemperSports, a golf, sports, entertainment, and hospitality company, announced a partnership with New Jersey’s Morris County Park Commission to manage its Berkshire Valley, Flanders Valley, Pinch Brook, and Sunset Valley public golf course properties.

“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 rests on 600 acres in the Highlands region of Northern New Jersey. Opened in 2004 and designed by Roger Rulewich, the course ranked No. 17 on GolfPass’ 2024 Golfers’ Choice list of best courses in New Jersey. 
  • Located in Flanders, N.J., approximately 40 miles west of Newark, Flanders Valley includes two 18-hole championship golf courses. The Blue-to-White course (“Inner 18”) is a traditional tree-lined countryside golf course, while the Gold-to-Red (“O”uter 18″) plays along the outside of the property with more elevation changes and views of the surrounding countryside. Golf Digest recently gave the property four stars on its list of the “Best Places to Play.”
  • Pinch Brook Golf Course, opened in 1983, is an executive-length course created by the Rees Jones design team. The par-62, 5,000-yard layout has water on most holes, including a lake on the seventh hole in the shape of New Jersey.
  • Sunset Valley Golf Course in Pompton Plains, NJ, was designed by Hal Purdy and opened in 1974. Sunset Valley is one of the best courses to play in New Jersey. Golf Digest recognized the course on its list of the “Best Places to Play” and by Golf for Women Magazine with a “Top Women-Friendly Courses Award.”

“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’ growing portfolio continues nationwide and has 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, NJ and the New York Parks Department.
