Ambassador at Hickory Valley Golf Club
About
Hickory Valley Golf Club boasts two 18-hole, regulation-length courses, named the Ambassador and the Presidential. The Ambassador Course is the shorter of the two at 6,450 yards but it still offers a fair test. The classic layout is routed through towering hardwoods forests that stretch to over 70 feet high. The tall hickory trees loom over the fairways. The small greens are sloped back to front, presenting a challenge for even the most seasoned players. Water hazards come into play on several holes and there are a few tricky doglegs to contend with. The bunkering is minimal but the abundant trees will be enough to keep you on your toes. The golf course has some challenging holes but it's not overly punishing for the high handicapper.

Golfer Reviews
The starter was very rude! I seen no difference in this course verse the ambassador course the cart path needs to be fixed the pace was ridiculous slow
Overpriced for maintenance
There are much better deals in the area than this. While I love the layout and how challenging it is, the maintenance is questionable at best. The greens are never the same week to week and the bunkers are awful compared to lower priced courses in the area let alone the courses charging these prices.
Excellent
The staff and Steve the Pro super. Yes I would recommend this course to anyone.
Solid course
First time playing here. Staff was very helpful. Played the Presidential course. Stay in the fairway because the rough is high. Bunkers need sand that was the only downside,it was like concrete. Overall it was a good experience. Would play there again.
Average
course is in decent shape. Greens good. Need to trim trees back.
Beauty and the Beast!
For the time of year, the course was in fantastic shape. HVGC Ambassador is a beautiful course, with rolling hills and pretty water features, but if your not paying attention to yardage on every shot you are in trouble. This course is a beast because you have to be very accurate to succeed -- hitting fairways is key! Beautiful course, well kept, friendly staff, but hit your shots accurately and in the fairway or you'll be posting a big number.
Great course
This course was a lot of fun! The layout was great had a blast for my first time. Still fairly muddy so had quite a few bad hit from mud shots. Overall awesome time will play again
Good Course Layout.
The Presidential was as challenging as advertised. Great opportunity to test out my Qi35 off the White tees. I was essentially the only one on the course. Liked the shapes of the various long pars. I look forward to getting back on the Presidential.
