The aptly named Hidden Valley Golf Club feels secluded set between two large hillsides, amongst carefully preserved boulder outcroppings, ravines, and an abundance of native flora and fauna. The challenging layout demands accuracy and it will also test your shot-making skills. Golfers should expect to utilize every club in their bag. The golf course features tight fairways lined with mature trees, tricky doglegs, and multi-tiered greens that can be difficult to read. The rolling terrain also promises difficult uphill and downhill lies. Bunkers are strategically placed throughout and there is water on a few holes. A windy day adds yet another formidable element to the challenging design. The diverse layout has a mix of difficult par 3s, reachable par 5s, and a few birdie opportunities. Hidden Valley Golf Club will definitely test your skills, but five sets of tees make the course more approachable to a wide range of skill levels.

Extremely windy and on top of that almost a six hour round!

Slow play just added to our frustration with the 30 to 50 mile an hour gusts of wind. Wind can be excused but slow play with no marshall is not good.

One of My Favorite Courses

This is a great course, beautiful scenery, and is very well maintained. Many holes are wide open which will help accommodate beginners like myself. For the price, I think this course is definitely a steal.

Punched greens/ Lumpy Tee Boxes

Great layout, good pace just lumpy tee boxes and punched greens made it terrible. Give it some time like 2months and hopefully they get right again because it's an awesome course layout.

Horrible experience

I drove up with my buddy and I walked in to go pay and as I walk in the door I say good morning. The fella does not speak at all. So I walk up the the front counter and I speak again good morning. Oh hey how can I help you. Well, I have a 10 am tee time I'd like to pay. He says we'll are you familiar with our dress code? Mind you I've played here many of times in very similar get up. I had on shorts with my golf shoes a dry fit nike shirt that did not have a collar and ball cap. I said yes I've played here many times before. He says well sorry someone should have told you about our dress code you need a collar. Do you have a jacket? No sir I do not have a jacket. And then he just stares at me. I said you know what sir just go ahead and cancel my tee time. And he says ok no problem. As I walk out I see about 5 guys on The range 3 of which had on shirts as me with no collar shorts and ball cap. I guess I didn't have the complexion for the connection with this guy. Sucks cause I've had very good experience here at this course. I'm. Ot gonna make this racial but come on now it really stunk what this guy did.

Xtreme weeds growing on greens

Not only were the green so overgrown that the ball wouldn’t roll but there were lots of crab grass on the greens and you could see how they have been trying to pull the grass and then they put sand where they pulled the grass out so the greens are in such bad shape that’s very difficult to Golf and also the roof was overgrown so it was like US open Conditions trying to hit out of the rough very difficult and this course in the past has been an amazing course to play on but I would not recommend it to anyone at this point until they fix those things

Great track but pace of play needs to be better.

Picked a good day weather wise. Course is better with previous knowledge for shot placement. Slow pace of play hurts the total enjoyment.

Plugged greens - and no cart until 15 mins re-tee off

It was an OK round, but a lot of tees are closed, the greens were plugged and very rough (no one told us), and no cart was available until 15 mins before tee off, so a rush to get to the tee and prepare.

The standards here have slipped a lot, and management needs to get its act together.

Cart Girl give my credit card to the wrong person

Always love this course, great view and challenging lay out. However, the cart girl been taking the card to the club house to make the transaction which is totally fine. We gave the card on the 3rd hole and finally met the cart girl again on the 16th, but she told me the card was given to me and I have signed the receipt which I never did. I talked to the manager and get a satisfied solution, other than that the pace is extremely slow, need to wait to play every hole for at least 7-8 minutes.

Great shape

You can tell the greens were aerified last week or so but still fun. The rest of the course is in great shape. Striped fairways and the rough is thick and green. Great job staff.

Great Golf Course

The course was in excellent condition, tee boxes, fairways and greens. Love the course, the location, availability and price. Because it was very warm, it was nice having a cart girl out to purchase cold drinks. I wish there could be some improvement in the way the carts are programmed, they crawl up hill, stop or slow so suddenly going down hill..... Doesn't,make any sense.

Going downhill in conditions Needs improvements.

Shame. This used to be a good course.

Not being allowed to check in and get/load a buggy until 10 minutes before teeing off is horrible.

Little or no warmup time after then rushing to the tee.

Some of the cart paths are really rough, they used to be good.

Nasty alien grass growing around the edges of some greens.

New - or much better management - is needed to restore this course to former high standards.
