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.

Poor Pace of Play

I feel that with the long distances between holes and that there are a lot of twosomes now in golf that they need to heave more course marshalls to help with the pace of play. We were a twosome and we waited no less than 15 minutes on each of the first 7 tee boxes. We then had a group behind us jump 2 holes and then after 7 holes we actually skipped 8 & 9 as we were on a 7-hour round pace after only playing 7 holes. The back went a little better, but we finally got some things sped up and we ended up skipping 17 & 18 because we needed to get on the road. Course is challenging and was in good condition. Pace of play ruined everything positive about the experience.

Pace of play issues!

Hidden Valley is a relatively fun course to play, for the most part. Quirky layout, decent conditions and good (not great) greens. However, the pace of play is simply embarrassing. 12:10 tee time, tee'd off at 12:30. Waited on every hole and almost every shot. Finished in over 5 hours. Not one marshal keeping players moving on a course that desperately needs it. As for the course, fairways average, almost no rough and bare bunkers. A couple blind tee shots. Guess the price is what keeps them coming back, but I won't be any time soon. I played on a Tuesday. Ouch.
