Auburn Valley Golf Club

Bone dry fairways, spongy overwatered greens, tee boxes in disarray and $69 for 18 holes. If you don’t get a deal online I would pass on golfing here.

Lack of water has made the fairways lack grass, including the tee area. The greens are not in good condition.

A classic course that is fair and challenging. Plenty of tee box options. Great views.

My only criticism is that some of the fairways are drying out with sections of hard pan.

Well managed Covid-19 sanitation situation around the pro shop area and the carts. Well managed fairways and the greens. Tee boxes are a little bit hard. The best golf carts , equipped with good working GPS.

Well worth of driving one and 1/2 hours to get to the course. A couple of birdies helped the enjoining the round. I will return here before the daylight gets shorter in November. Thanks GolfNow.

Course was brown, greens with black spots everywhere. Over watered areas.

Booked a time for 9:40. Arrived at 8:50 and while checking in was told I did not have a confirmed time and should have read the fine print while making the reservation. Starter wanted to get my twosome out at 9:30, which was no problem. Arrived at 1st tee at 9:20 and waited for the group ahead to tee off. Stepped to the tee and was asked by the employee at the tee what time I had, which I replied 9:40, but starter wanted to get me out at 9:30 ahead of an adult tournament. There was another group who said they had the 9:40 time, which happened to be the first group of the adult tournament. First tee employee asked me to go inside and talk with the starter. Starter asked if we could skip ahead to hole #3, as there should be a break between groups. Agreed on the premise that we would come around and play the skipped holes when done with 18. Found a twosome on the 4th tee and played the course through 18 (very slow play). When checking with the starter, who was different from the morning starter, on how to get in the order to play holes 1-3 I was told there was a junior tournament and I would have to wait 90 minutes. I found it difficult to believe the morning starter wasn’t aware of the Jr tournament. It would not have been difficult to equate when my group would finish 18 and be back to play the skipped holes. I was offered nothing but an apology and the opportunity to wait around 90 minutes. Very unprofessional starter.

At check in they didn’t have my Teeoff reservation so I had to show them my printout. The tee time was double booked so we were late getting started. Not sure why there was problems with the online reservation.

I got some very good practice on a really fun course with almost nobody around.

My sandwich was not good. Very salty and I asked for no mayo, but I didn't go for the food. The golf was much better..

course said golf now bookings seem to be made without checking tee sheet, luckily. weonly had a short delay

The course itself was great and the staff was quite helpful. But, there were multiple groups, including mine, that had booked through GolfNow but didn’t show up in the Auburn Valley GC reservation system. So the starter had to plug us in wherever he could. Our 7:30am start time ended up being 8:10am. For us, it was fine, but another twosome that also booked through GolfNow and played with us had to leave early since the later start time caused them to be behind schedule. Hopefully Auburn Valley GC and GolfNow can get things figured out in the future.

GN not synchronized with their schedule call ahead to avoid stress. They honor reservations but have to fit you in.

We play this course quite a bit and never have to wait much on the tee boxes. The staff state that they are unaware of when golf now tee times are made so there tends to be some confusion but usually never a problem. One Saturday there was a tournament so our tee time from golf now as mixed in with the tournament and was forced to walk after paying for a cart as part of the tee time.

Had a 6:40am tee time. Pro Shop sent me off on #10 solo to beat a tournament onto the course. Pace was quick. Course was in very good shape, although a bit wet. Course was being watered through the first nine. Very fun, playable course. Will definitely play here again.

We all got an earful as soon as we got there telling us that GolfNow and Auburn Valley don’t sync up and that our tee time was double booked. We got to the course with plenty of time to warm up only to be pulled 20 minutes early from the range to be squeezed in between 2 groups making the turn. So now we were pushed for our front 9 teeing off on 10 again 20 minutes early. The fact that they don’t sync up wasn’t our fault but the course certainly let us know that it was our fault and to quit using GolfNow when booking at their course. Auburn could use some flat tee boxes instead of new golf carts, as well as some items in the pro shop. One of our group wanted to buy some balls and couldn’t cause there was only one dozen of one kind for sale!! Wow!! I have seen less in some pro shops these days due to Covid but this was incredible the lack of items they had for sale. Cool course just needs work, and by the looks of things maybe going back to private or bankrupt hard to tell. I won’t be back to find out.
