Presidential at Hickory Valley Golf Club
Rating Snapshot
About
There are two 18-hole courses available at the Hickory Valley Golf Club, the Presidential and the Ambassador. The Presidential is the flagship course and it is also the longer and tougher of the two. The layout incorporates nine of the club's original 27 holes. The Presidential is nearly 300 yards longer than its sister course at 6,721 yards from the championship tees. The golf course has a nice balance of player-friendly features and challenging hazards. The wide fairways are quite forgiving, while the large, undulating greens are framed with bunkers. The signature hole is the par-4 second, which gently doglegs right, requiring a long and accurate tee shot. You're not out of trouble yet though, you'll still have to face the heavily bunkered green that also has a pond to the right.

Great pace
We played the presidential course , I was helping my daughter in her game , luckily for us we had no one in front or behind us the whole round , obviously we weren’t keeping score so we could pick up at anytime throughout the game , but it was just perfect including the weather..
Worst Golf Experience in Years.
I’m not usually someone to write a bad review, but this was one of the worst of golf recent experiences I have been a part of. Course was not in playable condition- I understand there has been a lot of rain. But fairways, fringe, were overgrown and soaked to the point the course should’ve been closed. Pins were in strange spots considering conditions. We didn’t see the cart girl until hole 15. We teed off earlier then our tee time, told to go ahead, and right away had a threesome breathing down our neck all day- which wasn’t necessary since their tee time was scheduled for 20 minutes after us, not tee off right when went to our second shots. I got mistaken for someone else by a ranger who said I drove off the cart path during cart path only. (Which I didn’t) Told me if it happened again we’d be gone. Overall not a great experience for a course I’ve heard so much good about. Not sure I’d give it a second chance.
Great value
I got my tee time on golf now. I would definitely go back
Great conditions
The course was in great shape. Challenging but not impossible.
Condition, condition, condition
Say what you want about the layout and amenities but this course is in the best condition I’ve seen during this heat and drought. Greens impeccable and even the fairways are green.
Ridiculous waits
Front nine pace was great. Back nine ran into an ignorant wall. Two foursomes in front off kept hitting 2 to 3 shots each, hunted balls every hole for up to 10 minutes just to make us wait. No marshaling of play so we just quit after teeing of 12 and will never return.
Mehh
Greens not bad, fairways not bad. . Have to know the course to play it. Had pins in really stupid positions almost like mini golf. Asians everywhere and I knew we were in for a long day when they were arguing with man at counter about a coupon they printed out and that poor guy had to have his till short because of them. we almost got hit 3 times with balls (firing gallery) and never heard any fores from anyone. Staff pleasant but vowed on course to never play again there.
