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.

Course is in exceptional shape

It was a true pleasure playing the course. The day began with the staff being so accommodating. It was in the best shape I’ve ever seen it the greens were like walking on carpet with the perfect speed. Fairways were well groomed. The rough was a little challenging as it should be. Pace of play. It was right on point.

The view of the course during the round and the shape it was in was so picturesque; I can’t wait to go back

Lots of potential but….

They overbook this course. Pace is bad. I’ve played here twice, midweek, mid morning tee time and it’s has taken over 5 hours both times. No ranger to be found to encourage people to speed up. There was a group of 7 behind us, yes 7. The layout is awesome, beautiful views and course condition was overall good. However waiting to tee off or hit a shot on every single hole gets old fast.

Slower greens

Everything is good at this course except slower greens this time, probably due to maintenance.

This day!

On this day all tee boxes were being repaired. We had to tee off from the red. Also, around each green there was tall grass along with trimmings which made it extremely difficult to chip or put from.

Beautiful course

Will definitely be back. Layout and elevation changes are so fun to play and views are beautiful. Has to be top 3 courses the IE/Riverside area. Only thing was there was no starter for the afternoon times which I thought was weird. An event planner during their wedding rehearsals had us to just grab one that was sitting out lol. Since there was no starter, the holes were a little backed up around 3pm tee times. Was able to finish all but holes 17/18 before sun out.

Interesting Round

We have played this course several times- and it is always challenging. Today- we didn’t know all of the tee boxes were playing from the “red”- as they were working in the other boxes. I wish they would have posted this ahead of time. But- we made the best of it and found it completely changed the course. It also slowed down play considerably- because many of the Par 4’s were driveable and Par 5’s reachable in 2. So basically- one group per hole. Course was overall in good condition.

Greens very bumpy with lots of dead spots, and very dry. Rest of course was nice. Layout is a little strange for my first time but would definitely go again.

Save your money

Not worth the $90+ green fee. Not sure how people think this is worth the price of admission. The greens were very bad. No kept at all let alkaline well kept. Looks like there is no greenskeeper here. Literally greens are so long and shaggy and there are so many patches that need to be repaired. Again save your money and don’t play here. If you’re gonna spend that much you can spend a bit more and play a great course in Oak Quarry. If you want to save some money play Eagle Glen both courses actually know how to keep their greens well kept and are great courses. This place is a joke at that price for a green fee.
