Another Great Day

Another great day at Cedar Valley! Had a wonderful round. The course was in great shape especially with the lack of rain. Too bad the season is coming to an end soon 🥲🥲

My first time at Cedar Valley

Friendly and helpful staff. Course was in great shape, particularly the greens, but a few of the tee boxes were a bit beat up. Front nine is relatively short,with several doglegs. Back nine seems longer and more open. I really enjoyed playing here and will definitely return.

Rushed and Inhospitable

From the moment we arrived we were not greeted with a friendly hello. We were immediately ostracized to feel like outsiders. Although we were on-time, even slightly early, we were lightly scolded to rush to our tee box. Once arrived you could hear negative comments from other golf members on the practice green. Very rushed and less than enjoyable 9:20AM start as you could imagine.

The course wasn’t terrible, but the fairways were very very soft. The rain had not been that significant so it points to signs of significant drainage issues. This greatly hindered the quality of play.

I am not saying I would never play there again but I certainly will never go out of my way to do so.

Fun as always!

The round we had was fun as always. Only complaint was a group of 8 that seemed to be playing sort of playing together that slowed us down. We jumped a hole (there were 4 groups on the 7th hole!) and that solved the issue. I let the clubhouse know at the turn and the nice lady there said the ranger called in sick. 🤢

Great place to play

Can’t beat Cedar Valley for the value! course is beautiful, pace was slow, but that’s just because there was a big outing in front of us.

Staff was awesome!
