Water Valley Golf and Country Club
About
Located less than a half hour north of Cochrane, Water Valley Golf & Country Club, as its name implies, is nestled in a scenic valley tucked away among scenic hills. The woodland layout features stands of poplar and spruce trees as well as lush and abundant vegetation along the fairways, which gives them a completely secluded feel. The golf course originally opened in 1988 with only nine holes but expanded to a full 18-holes just a few years later in 1994. There have been several renovations to Water Valley Golf & C.C. since it first opened including widening of the fairways and completely rebuilt greens on three of the holes on the back nine. The new nine forms the front and wraps around the original nine holes. It has more sand and water than the original, which means you'll catch a break on the back nine.

Great shape!!! FAAAAST GREENS!
The course is in amazing shape this year, green everywhere. Only complaint is that the marshal left at about 4 pm and there were a couple of slow groups and the halfway house and snack shack were all closed pretty early but we did tee off closer to 5 pm. This place is such a hidden gems and the greens are like playing on pool tables but I like fast greens! Love playing here.
Wonderful Day
I have been meaning to get out this way for a long time. And it exceeded my expectations. What a beautiul terrian to drop a golf course on. Course Management was required and one of the people I was paired with had played there before so that was a bonus.
A wonderful day.
Well worth the drive!
This place is such a hidden gem. Almost like playing Priddis but for about half the cost. Well worth the drive.
Great course if I had been able to play.
Great course. Unfortunately got rained out on August 8th and can't contact golf now. It was a good deal but not even at the price paid when can't play. Guess better only book using golf now if no rain in forecast. Very disappointed.
Water Valley - Great course
Only complaint, sandwich shack and hot dog stand both closed just minutes before we reached them.
Great Rolling Hills Scenic Course
Great course layout, lots of vertical challenge, well croomed, intermediate to skilled level course. Recommended.
Love it!
This was my 3rd time playing Water Valley. I really enjoy the course. Very scenic and beautiful. It is not too difficult but the greens are really fast! A great course for the money!
I am very impressed!!
It's a very enjoyable experience to golf at this course first time! I would rate this course as one of the top 5 course in Alberta. It's really worth all the driving to pay a visit here!!
