Raccoon Valley Golf Course
About
Editor's Note: Course closed for business in 2024.
Raccoon Valley Golf Course (formerly known as Raccoon International Golf Club) sprawls across gently rolling woodlands, featuring scenic vistas of the surrounding countryside. The course is known for being home to the longest par 5 in the state, the notorious 17th hole. This treacherous hole measures in at a devilish 666 yards that will challenge even the longest hitters. Although the terrain is mostly flat and open, there are some surprisingly dramatic undulations in the greens that will cause tricky uneven lies. There are several lakes that come into play throughout as well as a number of strategically placed bunkers. In addition to the penultimate hole, notable holes at Raccoon Valley include the par-4 eighth, which requires a 220-yard carry, and the 11th, a par 3 that plays over a lake to a two-tiered green guarded by a bunker.

A really fun course.
I really enjoyed playing this course. The course is challenging and it requires you to use just about every club in your bag. I also like the hidden greens.
Course has fallen into disrepair
We have been a fan of the Raccoon course for years and play it frequently. We like the layout, with a lot of variety and enough hazards to make it interesting. This was our first time playing there this year. Bunkers were in terrible shape and the greens were bumpy. Course definitely needs attention. The course was busy, but the pace of play was better than usual. Will play it again later this year to see if conditions have improved.
This course is very nice.
This course plays well it has some blind fairways, greens are in very good shape,nice course.
Good course for your weekend golfer.
Course is well maintained. Par 4's are pretty short, averaging in the mid to low 300's. However, there is a couple difficult par 5's. On the front there is a Par 5 that dogleggs left at the end and is almost unreachable in two. There is also a Par 5 on the back that is over 600 yards. Needs three good shots to get there. Overall a good value for your money.
666 yard par 5!!!
Play this course from the blue tees and it is a great run. Score par on 17 and you feel great. Beautiful par 3 over water to a two tiered green. Had a great time. Will be back. For 14 dollars with a cart there isn't much to complain about. Thanks!!!
Good golf for the money, friendly team.
Prior reviewers have commented accurately on the level of course maintenance. But it's still a fun course to play, a friendly place especially to take a new golfer. It's not Pebble Beach, but you'd not get on there for $12 (w/Cart). Blue skies, green grass, and it doesn't look at all like an office!
Good layout and fun however needs some attention
This is a fun course to play and I really enjoy the layout. However if you expect tight cut fairways and manicured bunkers this is definately not the course for you. The greens were in pretty good shape however a bit slow and mixed speed. The sandtraps were not upkept at all. They looked more like big balding dirt spots. Clearly not a soul has been in these traps this year for upkeep. That was disapointing. Our group still had fun and we always do at raccoon just don't expect a perfect course.
Course could you a little work
Greens are in great shape but the course is abused by carts without full cart paths on most holes. Overall the course played well but could use some attention.
Good times with friends
Nice course lay out. Bunkers need serious attention, we can call it muddy pot instead. Greens are small ears, need more accurate shot.
