Good and interesting course

There are a lot of blind shots on the course, lots of hills that makes for a pleasant change up of golf courses around the Madison area. I always play this course once or twice a year.

Decent course

Some interesting holes, for sure. Lots of blind shots. Prairie 9 was closed for aeration. The ridge had been aerated, so putting was brutal (bumpy and sandy). The Valley hadn't been done yet.

Ridge is great for slicers - just aim left and you'll be okay, even if you hit it straight. The Valley 9 can be tight in spots, so be prepared to hit a more controlled tee shot.

Price reflects course.

Fall aeration has been completed this week. The ridge 9 greens were not well cleaned after punching. Valley 9 was not done yet, however, is due this week. I have played this course quite a few times this year and the conditions in the spring were better. Near by kwik trip is remodeling and has no gas, plan accordingly.

Great course.

Great course but greens are really slow. Be prepared to hot those putts harder as they will stop going down the hill

Scenic, Open Fairways for All Skill Levels

Just because this course is part of a resort doesn’t mean it’s expensive or “high brow”. You arrived and you’re warmly welcomed by a friendly, personable staffer. They promote “play it forward” so you can have an enjoyable game. The 27 hole course offers wide open fairways and hill & valley experiences. It’s best to see what’s over the hilltops before you hit the ball. It’s not my first time, nor will it be my last. I shot an 83, give or take about 5 strokes. Ha

Course value

The Staff at Deer Valley do a great job of taking great care of the course and are great folks to interact with from the check in through the finish.

Every time I’ve been out there to play I always have a great time. The course is laid out efficiently and provides some great challenges as well as some fun opportunities for scoring.

Valley/Ridge combo - sweet!

When I visit the area, I and my brother in law will drive out to B'Ville and hit Deer Valley. I've played there several times but for some reason never played the Valley 9. It was like playing a new course! We both felt that the character of the Valley was great, and I look forward to playing it again, with whatever the other choices of 9 will be.

Bad Condition, No Signage, Blind Everything, Bad Guest Services

No water on course, course tee boxes and cart paths are in awful condition, bunkers are wet clay, blind tee shots everywhere, greens are slower than a turtle walking on glue, and absolutely no signage. Seriously, we had no idea where we were going.

Guest services, no issues with beverage cart, attendants inside were pretty helpless, sat at the bar waiting for a few minutes while employees messed around before being taken care of.
