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.

Great course for the price

Great layout! I wish the tee boxes and fairways were more well-kept, but the recent weather probably had something to do with that. Good value for golf-now deal at $20. Wouldn’t pay much more than that though. Pace of play was slow on front 9, but picked up on the back.

Course is ok

Greens were ok. A little bumpy. But okay. The fairways grass was very high. When I hit the ball straight I would like to be able to hit my woods. Grass was too high

Although I did not give it a good rating yet I believe this course has made some significant improvements to it and is heading in the right direction. Under this new management I believe this will be a very good course. Shawn was very good at making me feel welcome and thank me for coming out. This is so a big change from previous times when I had visited this course. I will return to see how progress is going.
