Green Valley Country Club in Clermont sprawls across rolling hills that were once used for citrus farming. The unusually undulating terrain allows for scenic vistas all around, including a panoramic view of Lake Minneola from the sixth fairway. The golf course boasts some of the highest elevations in Lake County and the routing of the layout does much to take advantage of the sloping terrain. Throughout the golf course you'll find linear fairways and large rolling greens that call for heroic carries. Water hazards come into play on a few holes but in order to let the natural contours shine, bunkering was kept to a minimum. You'll only find it along the front and sides of the greens. Green Valley Country Club's seventh is one of the toughest holes, with an intimidating peninsula green that requires an epic drive in order to reach it in regulation.

Really disappointed

This course could be so much better. We played lift clean and place everywhere. No grass at all in the fairways and very little to be found on the greens either.

The back nine has some really nice holes. They obviously don't have a big budget to maintain the course. It's really to bad.

BEWARE! Terrible Conditions!

This course is in absolute terrible condition. We purchased this through Group Golfer, so other than the review, which seemed favorable, we thought we’d give it a try while visiting the area. What a mistake! The tee boxes are brown and void of grass. The fairways were horrendous, and void of grass as well. The rough areas were bumpy with all different kinds of turf. The greens appear to be okay, but certainly are deceiving, as they could be rolled and aerated. Many of the approaches to the greens were in tough shape. I got so frustrated, I just gave up and quit playing.

The best part of this course was John who was working at the clubhouse. He was certainly friendly and quick to recognize conditions need to be updated. It’s unfortunate to write a review such as this because this course has the potential of being really nice, but they are far from it.

Challenging, but fun

New owners are working hard to reestablish the fairway turf. The greens speed is somewhat inconsistent from one to another, but, it's a fun, inexpensive tract.

The first 9 holes did not have grass.

at the turn the course was much nicer. Appears the start of the 9 holes were recent ly added. Maybe this was a 9 holes course.

You Get What You Pay For!

The setting of this Country Club gets high marks with many pretty lake and woods views along the way however course conditions, from totally sand covered tee boxes to bone dry fairways and slick greens made getting a "decent" lie or a good putting surface nearly impossible. The experience reminded me of some of the golf courses I played during the Market Downturn from 2008-2011, No Budget to keep the course in shape! The "saving graces" were my playing partners who were both new to the game and just enjoying their company. I will say also that Jessica at the restaurant bar and grill was attentive, engaging and really easy on the eyes! Great job Jess!.....

Waste of a great layout

The course was very challenging with unique fairway bunkers. However the pace of play was ungodly slow. There was no attempt at "ready golf " nor an offer for me to play through as a single. While I understand there are jerks everywhere, what tipped the scales was the awful t boxes. Some on par 3s were just sand. The boxes with grass were not close to level. I've played a lot of different courses. Some very nice. And some dirt tracks as well. This one was one of the worst.

Poor conditions

I played this course over Thanksgiving and I was happy with the condition of the course. Things have deteriorated significantly since November.

Fairways are in poor condition, Greens and tee boxes are not much better. It's as if they stopped maintaining the course.

Friendly staff, newer carts.
