Winter bliss
COld cloudy rainy and I still enjoy this course. I love the solitude of winter game of here.
The staff is great and. Very helpful. Nice bar and clubhouse too.
One of my favorite Northern California courses for the money.
I'm excited to play again.
Over the Hill
This course is about an hour drive from my home, but well worth the drive. The fairways and greens were in excellent shape, but the rough was a little long and caused some delay due to looking for golf balls.
No need to hide!
The summer has passed,but this course's condition was like it was spring. I never had a bad lie. The greens were great. They rolled true. There were three in our group, and we never caught the group in front of us. We paid little, but I believe it was worth far more. I definitely will play this course again. Hidden Valley Lake is a real gem.
Fun course
Good course, always enjoy it. In good shape, but unfortunately we caught it the day after the greens had been punched. It'll be fine in a couple of weeks I'm sure.
vERY NICE COURSE
Had a great time. Interesting course
Course well kept
The staff at Hidden Valley are courteous and helpful. The course is always well maintained.

Beautiful place to play golf, clean air fresh cut grass birds chirping. This course is rewarding yet daunting. A place to see where you stand.

It's about the Greenskeepers
I have played this course every time I come to the Clearlake area and normally it's in tip top shape but not up to there standers due to management having issues with the greens keepers but they are back on and they the greens and tee boxes are coming back. Leave the workers to do what they know what to do.

Always Fun
The course is a lot of fun and a great test of all your irons and woods. The back 9 is especially fun.
Hi Harry,
Thank you for your great rating and review! We are so happy to hear you had a great time playing at Hidden Valley Lake Golf & Country Club. We hope you stayed out of our five water hazards and enjoyed the picturesque backdrop.
Looking forward to seeing you out on the greens for your next round with us here at Hidden Valley Lake Golf & Country Club.
Best Wishes,
Hidden Valley Lake Golf & Country Club Management
Greens look like they have cancer
Course usually in great shape guess greens keepers where on strike till last weekend now the first 4or 5 greens hade a bunch of dead spots ranging from 18" and up all over them I woul say at least 30% of green was dead the rest of the greens where a little better but not much rough needed mowed and some large areas of fairway where also dead I sure do hope they can get the course back up to par
We are so sorry to hear that you were not pleased with our course conditions. Due to the drought in California we do our best to keep our greens as healthy as possible, but we do have to be conscious of water usage.
We hope this did not hinder your experience and that you will want to come back and play at Hidden Valley Lake Golf & Country Club.
Best Wishes,
Hidden Valley Lake Golf & Country Club Management
First time playing Hidden Valley Lakes
Layout is fine, had some fun holes and had a few plain holes. Greens were some of the slowest I have played this year by a wide margin. Overall cost probably more than I would expect to play for such a course. Would I play it again ... yes, if the greens were made faster and the green fees were to drop $10.
We appreciate your feedback. Check online on our website for daily tee time specials and please email directly to find out more about pace of play suring your round at tarahteetime@outlook.com
Always Impressive Layout
Course is awesome to play. Great water hazards and some fairway bunkers. Very score friendly overall. Love the amazing clubhouse with good food, full bar, a pool table, plenty of patio seating, great practice greens, pitching/chipping green. My only bummer was a couple greens were getting bare (but I'm sure they're on it) and a group of 5 slowed my pace down tremendously but that's golf.
Thanks for the always impressive layout review and we cant wait to see you back!
A pleasureable roud of golf
The weather was great, we were able to tee of right on time and had a wonderful round of golf!!
We are happy to hear your round was such a joy! Come back and see us again soon
Back 9 way too slow
Front was excellent back nine was horrible due to lack of marshals.
please email directly to find out more about the pace of play on the back 9 at tarahteetime@outlook.com
This course has a lot of character.
I think it's a gem for the price. Also being that it's right down the hill from my house the location is great as well.
Glad to hear the location is great for you and we are a gem!
Always a good experience
I play at HV once a month and always enjoy it. Course kept in pretty good condition. Laid back and relaxed environment and bar.
Thanks for keeping us in your monthly rotation!
Well maintained and interesting
Nice course, pride of condition is evident. Very reasonable rate from national website. Places long from even white tees. Would use more often if closer.
Santa Rosa Dave
Thanks for noticing the pride we take in our course. Come drive out and play again soon!
Course in good condition, friendly staff
Nice warm day in Lake County. Course was in good condition and greens were somewhat fast. A nice challenge for the intermediate golfer and possibly the advanced player.
Great to hear you enjoyed your round and customer service. Come back soon!
beautiful weather
Good course, had lots of fun. It has good greens and fairway.
