Clover Valley Golf Club
About
Surrounded by dense woodlands, Clover Valley Golf Club has a secluded parkland setting that also allows for some links-style holes. The course is relatively young but it has a much older feel to it. The versatile layout has an interesting mix of holes that appeals to a variety of different tastes and abilities. There are also four sets of tees that make it even more accommodating to a range of skill levels. The layout features gently rolling fairways that are lined with trees. They are rather generously sized though, which makes them more player-friendly. The medium-sized greens are also approachable with only slight undulations. There are several lakes as well as a creek that come into play on several holes. In addition to the golf course, Clover Valley also offers extensive practice facilities including a driving range with target greens, a large putting green, and a chipping area with greenside bunkers.

Tough course, good conditions.
Course was in good shape, had a very challenging lay out. Pace of play was fairly slow.
Always a great time
The time it took to golf was not the fault of the course, but the players in our carts. One 80 year old and two beginners. While trying to get them to play faster, it only proved to slow us down. We let 3 groups go by so we would not slow anyone up.
Clover Valley is one of the courses in Central Ohio that I wanted to play once I moved back to Ohio from Chicago. I like the track and the challenges it provides.
The staff is always friendly and accommodating. I will be coming back.
This course was good
Course also a little more difficult in the beautiful, It is a good course
Always enjoy course, challenging - but hadn't played there since last year, course conditions have deterioted
Conditions of green and fairway were consistent with the cost of course, but roughs were not maintained, could have been a field anywhere
Greens good, play slow
Greens were in good shape. Fairways and tee boxes had many rough spots. Too many dirt patches and weeds in the rough areas. Pace was way too slow, front 9 took 2:35. Very good layout though and good price for weekend golf.
Super fast greens
I love the layout of this course! The day we played, the greens were super fast! I can't remember the last time the greens were this fast! The fairways were in bad shape. Lots of dead spots, divots, and weeds. This course would be awesome if the fairways matched their greens quality.
nice layout, nice greens
greens rolled true and were fairly quick. Fairways were burnt in a lot of places, needed to move the ball to find grass in some places. Tees in decent shape, traps were iffy in spots, some traps should have been marked ground under repair, looked like raked mud. I like the layout, 4 sets of tees, played from blue, 6600, can be stretched to 7100. I would return because the greens were nice. There were a lot of unrepaired ball marks, but I see this at a lot of public courses which is unacceptable that people do not fix their marks
Value and great golf
Like any course it has flaws. But they are few. The greens have a true break and roll to them. This makes sinking a pout a balance of speed and break, like it should be. If you play there more than twice, the staff recognize and appreciate your repeat booking.
Great Central Ohio course
Very nice course located in between Johnstown and Columbus. Greens are excellent fairways in some place's could use some drainage but overall a great course! Bunkers could use a little more sand. A lot of bunkers fairway and green side. This course is challenging but fair. Wide fairways, but if you don't hit them your ball is probably gone no chance of finding it
Course is in great shape and well maintained
I really like this course. Not real hard, but not easy either. Only complaint is that my fellow golfers don't seem to know what a divot tool is for, and that isn't the courses fault.7/26/2013
would only recommend this course if it is close by. not worth a long commute.
The greens are nice and roll true, and surprisingly quick. The fairways and rough are average and the rough was a bit too long. The staff was short and not very friendly. They gave of a smug feel as if we were not welcome.
Great course, wet conditions
I've been to Clover a few times in the past, but never put together a full 18. This is one of the nicer facilities in the area. Greens were very true and I can only imagine they would be on par with a private course if it weren't for constant rain the last 3 weeks. Each hole is a unique challenge and you will definitely need to play smart to score. Layout makes the round pretty private as you don't see many other groups save for a few holes. Will definitely be back and add this course to the regular rotation.
Great shape even with the rain
Greens in great shape, roll nice. Fun, challenging golf course.
Not a favorite
The course was ok. The staff was sort of friendly but not really.
Great course. Highly recommend.
Played on the 4th of July. Got a hot deal for a great rate. It had rained the previous couple days so the fairways were pretty soggy and couldn't get any roll. Offers some challenging holes. Pristine condition. Cant wait for the next hot deal to pop up.
An excellent golfing experience and friendly staff
I play there an average of twice a week and have done so for the past seven years. Currently, the course is in the best shape since I have been visiting Clover Valley, tee box to green. Hats off to the friendly and attentive staff, inside and out, for making this an excellent golfing experience. A challenging test for anyone's game.
This course should be on all golfer's schedule.
Great Greens
Greens ran true and were in great shape. Fairways in good condition, love to play this course every year.
Great condition
Glenross is in great condition. The greens were rolling well. This one's on my monthly play list.
Very nice
Very nice course. Everybody was very friendly. Will definitely try to play this course again this year.
