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.

Very nice course. 8.5 /10 imo.

The bunkers and some of the tee boxes need improvements. The bunkers have very little sand. Bring a low-bounce wedge to get out. I’d like to see them add some sand. Tee boxes on many holes need to be leveled to remedy some significant dips. These two knocks are about the only negatives. The course is otherwise in fantastic condition, especially the fairways and greens, and would be elite if they addressed those two relatively small concerns. The rough is fairly punishing, especially beyond the first cut. A good warm-up for Torrey Pines. The course layout is challenging with a lot of blind shots from both the tee and the fairways. There aren’t many flat lies out there. The driving range was conveniently located, and other than a lack of flags out there, was just fine. The cart was well equipped with USB ports, GPS and scoring, order ahead at the grill capability, and a cooler. I expect to play there again soon.

Horrible manager and course conditions

Manager wouldn’t let me purchase a seperate golf cart for my handicapped father to ride around with me. And they don’t seem to care for handicap people. Horrible manager Jordan McDonald

Great Value!

I wasn’t sure what to expect since it’s been a little while since last playing here but the course did not disappoint. Such a great course for the money. Layout is fabulous, course is green and beautiful. My only negative on the round was that the greens were a little slow/fuzzy.

Course is in good shape. However, no sand in bunkers and bunkers are hard packed.

Everything was thick from the tropical storm

The fairways and greens were in very nice shape- but everything was very thick from the recent tropical storm. The fairways obviously need to be mowed shorter- once everything dries out. The greens were thick and slow- again- they need to be mowed shorter.

This is a challenging course with a fun layout.
