About
Deer Valley Golf Course in Hummelstown boasts one of the most affordable rounds you'll find in the Hershey/Harrisburg area. Since opening in 2005, more than 850 trees have been added and it has matured into a course favored by both visitors and locals. The layout features large, elevated greens and massive multi-tiered tees. From the golf course's peaks, the views stretch all the way to Hershey and the Blue Mountains. The winding layout twists and turns, doglegging left and right. It's a challenging layout round despite the absence of sand bunkers. There is however, thick rough and a number of grass bunkers to watch out for. Water only makes a brief appearance. Deer Valley Golf Course isn't overly challenging but for a fun and fair test, it's an affordable option that also offers some beautiful scenery.

Terrific. Thank you for the 5 stars.
Thank you very much, CoachSluss!
Thanks a lot for the 5 stars and hope to see you again this fall.
Terrific. Thanks very much for the 5 stars.
Interested course
We picked the course by chance on our way to Penn State for football game.
First off the staff was awesome. Absolutely cannot beat the price. Beer only at the pro shop, $3.50 for 16oz cans 👍🏻. The course layout is a bit goofy. 5- par 5’s and 5 -par 3’s !
Par 3 on 9 and par 3 on ten makes for an unpleasant backup👎🏻
However, the bottom line is the course is in such GREAT condition that I highly recommend playing it if your in the area.
Thank you for taking the time to review DV. Yes, our staff is the absolute best! Hope you had a great time at the PSU game. DVGC
Glad you enjoyed again! Thank you.
First time
We got paired up with a great twosome who were very helpful with giving the course layout for us. But apparently it was getting set up for a tournament as our tees were further back than normal and the greens were very difficult to read. Either way, we had a great time and will definitely be coming back. Pace of play was fantastic for a Friday morning. Almost broke 100 lol
Glad you had a great time and that you definitely plan to come back. Hope we can get 5 stars next time!
Deer Valley a very nice golf course
Deer Valley is in excellent condition with some very challenging greens.
Staff personnel are very friendly
Thank you and thank you for the 5-stars. The entire staff works really hard to earn those!
Thank you again!
Great course
Well maintained and pace of play was great for a Sunday morning, only had to wait a few minutes if that for the majority of the round. Got paired with 3 guys I didn't know and had a great time.
That's great to know, Kevin. Thank you for the 5-star review!
Saturday play
I usually don’t play weekends but got offer from my son. It was crowded but rangers kept everyone moving along. Course was in good shape. Greens were fast. Some hole placements were a bit difficult!
Glad you had a nice day with your son at DV. Hope to see you again!
Thanks very much, James!
Thanks a lot for the 5 stars.
Thank you for taking the time to give us 5 stars. Hope to see you again soon.
Starter issues
I had a 10:21 tee time for 3 golfers. While I was waiting to tee off “on schedule”…The starter put out a group of 7, out of turn …and made the round drag all day. What’s the purpose of reserving a tee time if the starter is going to change the tee sheet to “accommodate” the “regulars”. Otherwise, I enjoy the course and the conditions
Sorry you had a frustrating time at DV. Like most public courses, we occasionally make adjustments to smooth out the schedule. In your situation, we moved your start time down one tee time. We do our best to accommodate everyone.
