Fun Track

Overall course was in good condition. They need to update their carts but the course is very walkable. Staff could learn to smile a bit. Would definitely play again.

God Layout

This was my first time playing Spring Valley, but I can assure you it will not be my last. A fun layout with a variety of holes. Built on a hillside there are numerous elevation changes throughout but most holes traverse the hillside so there aren’t any extreme changes

Condition wise the course was in nice shape tee green. Nothing that “wowed” you but nothing to disappoint you

Greens rolled on the slow side and a bit firm side but rolled true. Fairways had good coverage throughout and presented a nice hitting surface

I walked the course which is doable but not an easy jaunt by any means. I will definitely play here again.

A Less Than 4 hour round for 18-Holes !!??

Greens 7.5, Fairway 6.5, Sand 4, Tee Boxes 6.5, Ruff & Off Fairways 5

Like playing this predictable course for it's H.D. Value, And, really because it allows my buddy to escape nearby work & home. They need to improve the Hard ground, 1" under the surfaces AND get the Driving Range up & running ( how many years under construction, Lol? )

Keep up the good work , And If you're lucky, you get a quick 18 holes in, Like TODAY!

The course is great shape!

Upkeep was really nice tee to green. Greens were in great shape. Rough wasn't too thick. Fairways well maintained. Tee boxes weren't chewed up. Pace of play was 4.5 hrs. Once the driving range reopens the course will be even better. Will definitely play here again!

Good course in decent condition

Good course, some interesting layouts and fun par 3s, no complaints about the design.
Aerated greens still made for bad putting/chilling/approach experience. Driving range is closed for construction but overall fine course, albeit maybe $10 more than it should be given the current conditions.

Fun course

Great course for higher handicappers. Greens can be tough, and course knowledge is important. Long hitters might find it to easy. Back nine is really beautiful.
