Delightful track

I always enjoy playing this course. It’s not like most of the golf courses locally. It is definitely a fun course.

Conditions of the course

The house used to be our favorite course couple of years ago. But unfortunately they didn't keep it up. Their greens are in terrible shape with mus and dirt with no grass on the greens. Good luck management and hope you can bring it back up.

Really Nice Staff

The staff was very friendly and helpful while the other golfers were kind of jerks. Busy day, lots of people out and the group behind us made us feel rushed. Course was in overall good condition but if you have never played here it is challenging because you dont know where you can miss and such.

Greens

A lot of the greens have grass fungus and has dead patches. The Tee box’s haven’t been moved for awhile and lots of divots in the tee box’s. Also wasn’t happy you pay on the app and then they charge you again $15 for each person on your cart. Makes it no savings to pay on the app. It was a slow pace and people trying to push you. But come on there were two foursomes in front of us that we were waiting on. No marshals to be seen to help people along. Yes could have been cause of Father’s Day but 18 shouldn’t take 5.5 almost 6 hours.

Poorest condition of any course around

Greens had many burned out and chewed up spots. Sand traps were muddy and unraked. Asphalt cart paths are woefully maintained and crumbling. This is spring time where everything should be growing well yet this course was in terrible condition. I liked the layout and for a short course, found it challenging.

Hidden Gem.

We had never heard of Valley Springs but decided to take an hour drive out to La Contenta. Great decision, the course conditions nearly perfect. A couple of greens needed some patch repair but they kept the pins away from those spots. Good food (ordered food by phone at the turn). We'll be back!
