Spring Valley Golf Course

The first time I played this course was over 30 years ago and it was a cow pasture.This morning was perfect. The sun was just starting to come up and the morning dew was glistening all around. I hit my first drive straight. What a great golf course!

Great coarse for a leisure round. No super big challenges.

The greens are in great shape but not too fast. The fairways are in good condition and there are no really long holes. Great course to practice accuracy (trees) and your short game.
The setting is quite spectacular.

The wind is a big factor on several holes, both for and against you. Makes you think about what club to use, particularly on a couple of par 3s. I would say that most of the greens are slow but the few that are fast are a big surprise, really have to pay attention to the cut and slope on the greens. This is a course that appears easy but can make it tough if you can't stay in the fairway.

My only complaint would be that the marshals don't really do anything about slow play. Although we managed to play in about 5 hours, there were several times we had 2 groups waiting on the tee.

I always enjoy Spring Valley for the nice facilities and fun course. I think it is environmentally responsible of them to let the fairways dry out a bit this time of year. Plus, its great for a short hitter to get all that rooooool! I have played here for the last few years and the greens have always been lumpy. Not sure why they can't get them smoother like many other local munis, but it is always this way. Played on a Friday afternoon and got behind a slow group, otherwise we would have finished in about 4-1/2 hours. Anyway, I'll be back!

Course conditions were very good, pace was a little slow.

The putting green is very well maintained, and quite fast.'
Wide fairways makes it forgiving for beginner, intermediate players who are likely to slice the ball. Also the first cut of the rough is fairly low and wide which makes is fairly easy to get out off. The Par 3's are fairly long and was a bit challenging;

The staff is friendly and the 19th hole is very nice.

Aside from being flat and not all that challenging, the pace of play is extremely slow with a Marshall staff who have no desire to fix it.

Spring Valley is inexpensive and a fun course. I really like the new tee boxes and work they have done around the course.

This is one of my favorite courses in the south bay. The price is good, the staff is nice, and the course is a good mix of challenge. The course is not too difficult as several holes are fairly open.

New tee boxes. New irrigation system is being installed. Fairways are hard and fast and the rough is well maintained. I haven't played here in years. Much nicer then I remember.

The course difficulties are good for my level. The greens are well maintained. Nothing I can complain. And the food are food are good too.

Aside from the horrible conditions of the greens, recently punched and maybe 5 on a stimp meter. It will take 2 to 3 more weeks for the greens to completely recover. The rest of the course is in good condition. It will be in excellent condition when it gets over the winter cold weather cycle that always effects all golf courses.

This course offers a variety of challenges. It hasn't rained much this Spring so the course is a bit dry and firm. The greens had been recently aerated so they were quite bumpy, hard to get a smooth roll. Other than that, the area is nice and has some great scenery.

Great bang for the buck while other courses are charging way to much.

My husband and I had a great game with the perfect weather conditions. Because of that it was a slow play with all the golfers on the course.

Spring Valley is a nice public course and is in very good shape for a course that gets a lot of traffic. The greens have a good pace and roll true. The tee boxes and fairways are nice as well.

The only annoying thing I found out is that golfnow.com doesn't work like other typical reservation sights. When I booked a Poppy Hills tee time I was able to realize a junior discount when I got there. I was told at Spring Valley that golfnow.com won't allow one to realize discounts like "youth on course" or even not take a cart. Given this, it was suggested that I should not use golfnow.com which is likely what I'm going to do in the future.

The staff were super friendly. The clubhouse meals were well worth the prices. The fairways were fast and the greens were challenging (the only flat green was #18). Overall "very enjoyable".

Most of the coarse plays short pars ,but can be challenging if you don't stay in the short stuff , which i haven't mastered yet .

Love the course, the location, difficulty, and the staff.
