This course used to be considered a hidden gem. Now, Oak Valley Golf Course in Beaumont is an off-the-beaten-path known reasonable joy. Stopping on the way from Los Angeles to Palm Springs for a golf detour is no fool's play. Not with the fast greens, dramatic elevation changes and swerving fairways available at Oak Valley in Beaumont.

A Lee Schmidt and Brian Curley design, Oak Valley is probably best known for greens that are anything but desert typical. Speed is the name of the game here, with a tap sometimes too much on a downhill putt.

Recognition does not travel that quickly. It took a decade for Oak Valley to get a four star rating from Golf Digest. Once it did, Beaumont suddenly became a golf stopping spot on the Palm Springs express. Now, you're considered a smart golfer if you linger on the way to Palm Springs.

"It's a nice getaway from the crowds in the desert, as well as some of the other, more populated golf areas," head pro Scott Arnold said. "It's almost like being in the country. No houses line the fairways. Each hole is different. And because of the way it's laid out, you often can't even see another hole from the one you're playing."

I had first time but we had frost delay. Course got me out first at 7:30 . Finished front in hour and a half.

Course employee that happened to be playing back round checked with me as I played 10th hole. He was polio and nice but should have known what was going on . Made my only double bogey of round on that hole. No big deal.

It’s a great course but range balls had no compression.

Should be better as a practice facility known course.

Overall a nice day

Oak Valley

Now this is a course that can be magnificent with it's rolling fairways and undulating greens. It is far more challenging than it's slope rsting. The problem is that it has not been maintained very well. There were so many dry patches on the fairways and it appears it is not being properly watered. I made a trip of nearly 50 miles and was disappointed. I don't think I will do that anymore this season..

Yuck

I guess course maintenance is a thing of the past in California unless you’re willing to pay $200. It all seems part of a scheme to destroy fun in the US.

Course coming around....

They closed for two weeks in Oct. and the driving range and some fairways were worse for it. Golf course has really come back well, driving range is a mess. Grass on the range is still thin, it needs another closure and proper overseeding. No food cart and no drink machines, cart barn has water and beer. No on course water and rest rooms still closed. Take you own stuff and enjoy a great course....
