Clover Valley Golf Club

This is one of my go to courses in the area. Over the years, I have found the conditions to be fantastic, Recently, Ive noticed a few of the bunkers have needed attention and there have been a couple rougher spots than in years past, however I would characterize this as the exception rather than the rule. This course is usually in phenomenal shape. Beware of the layout, it is very challenging and there are no gimmes here. Although there are only one or two truly brutal holes, just about every hole has the potential to be a round wrecker if not played with due diligence. My advice is to arrive early, and take advantage of the well appointed practice area! Clubhouse is also very nice, with a banquet area available and decent food options. Drinks are poured generously, and there are some good liquor options available at the 19th hole,. At under $35 on weekdays, and under $50 on weekends, this course represents a very good value in the area IMO. I look forward to getting back out there when the weather breaks! Cheers!

My go to course. Always welcoming and always willing to accommodate. Modest offerings at counter , but all good.

Just catching up on my reviews. I played this course once last summer. I used to play it quite frequently. The course was not in very good condition, especially the tees and greens. Several greens had dead spots. Many of the tees have problems later in the season. They need to clear out some trees to bet better sunlight and air flow.

Staff was cordial but not near as friendly as when the course was operated by the previous owners.

The course layout is challenging and, when it top condition, is a good test of golf. Will try to play it again in the spring and see if it has improved.

Fix the tee boxes and for god sakes maintain the sand traps

The Good: Really great layout & property. Friendly staff

The Bad: As other reviews have said, course is in rough shape. Multiple greens automatic two putts because unplayable. Others with large ground under repair issues. If they put some money into the course (clubhouse/range/green issues) this would be an absolute gem.

The Ugly: Maybe 30 cars in the parking lot. Didn’t see holes 13-18 because the first three holes took an hour & 7 mins. 4-5 groups of boomers moving slowly, grinding out every three footer, and playing from incorrect tee boxes. We just drove back to our cars.

Golf this time of year depends on the weather and when the greens were punched and these greens were 2 weeks from the punch but had not recovered very well and the fringe and rough had not been mowed. I played there earlier in the year and the course was in great shape except for the bunkers.

I was overmatched on the greens. They were very slow as it was extremely humid. I liked the challenges the course gives with layup or go-for-it choices

Lots of folks complain about the conditions but conditions were actually good. Say for a few spots on certain greens, and the entire 5th green seemingly dead, the putting surfaces were speedy, smooth, and true. Fairways were running firm and the fairway grass was great to hit approach shots from. Like the greens, there were a few areas of mud/baked out grass, but nothing that couldn’t be considered ground under repair and played as a free drop. Bunkers were unplayable, however, which sucks because they add significantly to the strategy of the layout.

The layout is super fun and challenges you to make good shots but very fair to errant balls. Staff was also friendly. We got our round at $30 because high school matches were ongoing slowing the pace down significantly. At that price point it was well worth it - not sure what the regular rate would’ve been…

Staff was incredibly friendly, love the courselay out as well, but the course is in brutal shape. Large dead spots on the greens, nearly every fairway has significant damage/tire ruts. Will wait until next year to return

Course was in much worse shape than last year (2020). Almost every fairway had large sections that weren’t drained or damaged, several greens had dead patches as well. The layout is always great but unless it’s a discount don’t pay full green fees this year!

Course was in good condition and the layout is great. Each hole has a personality and not boring. We walked the course and they had mowed cut thrus from green to tees, nice. I would recommend this course to all.

One of my favorites, course conditions ALWAYS delivers. Can't wait to book another round!
