Spring Valley Golf Course

I like the course. The only thing that I did not like was the slow green.

Had my best round at least the front 9, 33 -1, back 44 total 77:-)

A decent close-by recreation course, played there many times. The cousre sit at foot hills with a good view of surrounding hills, relatively easy and very walkable, with moderate tree and water trouble, and enjoyeable.

I enjoyed the course. It was relatively easy as I shot my lowest gross scores here. However, I think it was a bit pricey.The course marshal should have been more strict towards the very slow play of the group in front of us though.

Very nice course, fast greens with great pin placement, & super quiet. There aren't many water hazards which I think is good and bad, but to each his own. Overall I enjoyed this course. I will go back, just don't know when.

Greeted by Chris at the Pro shop, got me right out,
course was very open... Course in great shape!! Play moved quickly... very challenging... can't wait to play again....

a good course to play after work and in the summer time

I've played at spring valley like 5 times and it is a gem. The course is nested in the hills which gives it nice character. The greens are true and the course is challenging but fair. I enjoy playing here. I brought my family from Oregon to play with my father and we had a great time playing in the 85 degree weather. Can't wait to play again there.

Very calm and nice place in the valley. Staffs are nice as well.

I had played this course with work colleagues and did OK. Played with my wife, son and friend. We all have high handicaps so this is the perfect course. If your ball strays off the fairway its usually found. All in all we had a great time. I will be playing this course again!

I would give Course Conditions 4 stars had it not been for very slow (about 7) and bumpy greens. I've played this course for many years...and normally the greens are much better...some variance is to be expected but their condition yesterday was awful. The practice green was ok....smoother and about 8. Staff were all great from pro shop to course areas. Food and Beverage staff friendly and competent. SV is a fun course and I hope they will get on top of this situation. One big plus...range balls reasonably priced. Range clean, neat, mats only.

The course is in the best shape I have ever seen it greens cut prefect looks like country club conditions

Too expensive for 5 and 1/2 hour round. $73 should ensure at least a round less than 5 hrs. Course was in great shape. Staff was good. Pace of play is my only complaint.

Very average muni course. A place to practice if Golfnow has discount. Otherwise over priced for the conditions.

We played foresome on a Sunday afternoon with my family. The green fee was a birthday gift from my son. The fairways and greens are all in perfect condition. We finished our round in 4 1/2 hrs, not bad with some walking players in front of us.
The only disappointment we had are the rude staff on the golf store. My friends warned me about this and i thought he was joking but I had the same treatment. I guess these guys should revisit their customer service training manual. We didnt see any courteous manner from the sunday staff. I like to come back and play this course again but will sure think twice before i decide. Don't want to ruin my golf game with a bad experience from a rude staff.

One of the better courses in Silicon Valley. It's well maintained. The 9 and 18 holes are interesting. Wonderful staff. It would be great if they had a beer cart like other courses.

I love playing this course. I've played it at least a dozen times. Our tee time was for 8:00 a.m. and we played in under 4 hours. Salinas CC is in great condition. The greens are some of the best in the bay area. it isn't the longest course so you don't always have to hit a driver off the tee but it is still very challenging and fun. Some of the fairways are tight and some are wide but all the greens are tiny! Makes for a challenging game. This place is a country club that is now open to the public but it has a country club feel to it still! For the price and the quality of the course, I put it in my top 5 favorite courses to play in the Bay!

had not played course in a couple of years they have added some new tee boxes which are really nice and has improved course from the tips but they have redone tee boxes on all holes and they were real clean

This course is a very nice muni-type course, though a little pricey. The set up can be annoying and lead to pace-of-play problems; no course should EVER have a par three as the second hole!
The greens are usually true-rolling, but when they are aerated...oh, that drives me crazy. Be sure to ask when you call if they have done this recently.

The course was beautiful and not busy. The only disappointment was that the greens were being aerated the day we went, and there was no mention of this online. The manager said aeration was pulled ahead a couple days due to weather, and they did their best to make it up to us with some vouchers for future visits. I would definitely return to this course, though, ideally when greens are in normal condition.
