GREAT COURSE…..Few unfair greens

Beautiful course and practice range. Check in was easy. Everyone was very nice. On time tee off. Never had to wait on any holes. Carts (GPS) and beverage person were wonderful.
VERY EXPENSIVE. And 2 greens had unfair slopes on them. You had no chance to stop ball by the pin if you were not in center of green.
I would definitely play again.

Green’s were VERY slow

The greens were VERY slow. The round was 5 hours long because the course management hid every pin they could behind and as close to a sand trap as possible.
This required multiple Sand shots by the two groups in front of us. The round could have easily be reduced by 30 minutes if the pins had been located in different positions on the green.
It is a Saturday and the course is full. The course management should do everything possible to speed play up.

Very old and run down

The course is very old and in need of major renovations. The cart path are full of ruts and holes. The tee boxes, fairways and most greens need major attention.
With the number of courses available in the area I will not come back to this one again.
The nicest green was 18, and I birdied the hole.

Great public course

BEST public course I have played. Greens were fast and in perfect shape except for a few ball marks. This course is a hidden gem.

Great time and course condition

Moon Valley is a gem of a golf course. The staff in the pro shop could not be nicer. The practice range had as many balls as you wanted an this was included in the greens fee. The real story is the beautiful and FAST greens that awaited you at the end of each hole. With a posted 10.8 notice in the pro shop they lived up to the speed and often exceeded it. Also the speed was true so accuracy was at a premium.

The course was full and the round took 5 hours but it was worth every minute of it. We had multiple interactions with the cart person and she was ALWAYS polite and nice. She even stayed late that day because so many people were still on the course. I would recommend that everyone try this course and consider a membership at Moon Valley.

VERY POOR Greens

I had high expectations when we pulled in. The staff was friendly and processed our payments quickly. The driving range was fine and we even teeded off a few minutes early.
The problem started when we reached the first green. It was not ONLY slow it was very bumpy. I found this same proble to be true on ALL 18 greens. This made it very difficult to enjoy the round because each hole ended with a slow/bumpy putting surface.

The head greens keeper need to talk to his counterparts at other courses like Whisper rock to see what can be done to rescue this course.

Talking Stick in NOT a cheap course and the amount paid was not reflected in the quantity of the greens. I will not return and advise other golfers to spend their hard earned money at one of the many other courses in the area.
