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.

Greens Immaculate, No Money Spent Elsewhere
Selected the course due to proximity (within 20 miles) and availability. I expected slow play due to the gorgeous weather, so my review is mostly related to course conditions. I felt that the greens were immaculate, but the rest of the course could use some upkeep and TLC. Fairways were decent, but it was very noticeable that attention was needed on all other aspects (brush clearing, sand traps matted and unplayable, rough was a mix of grass types and dead spots.) Staff was wonderful, and we still enjoyed ourselves. I just felt that the price was steep ($60) for the course conditions and care.
Early season, slow play, total swamp.
It was one of the first nice days of the season and was pretty crowded. The pace was pretty slow. Really nice new carts. Fairways and bunkers were soaking. Our threesome agreed they should not have been open. Cart path only for the carts was helpful but really killed the pace and should have been accounted for in the start times. We waited on almost every hole (we even had a beginner) and we felt rushed from the group behind us. Most bunkers were overflowing with water and unplayable. Most fairways were so soggy the ball would just plop and bury itself halfway. I really like this course it’s a shame it was in such bad shape.
Cold and windy.
The course, considering it is the end of the season, is in good shape. It as a cold and windy day, and very few golfers were on the course. The miserable weather caused us to quit after 9 holes.
Stole a nice day in November in Ohio
Had the opportunity to play here with a Cous n law. I haven’t played here for some 20 years. In fairness to CV November is not prime time golf season in central Ohio. The traps were non playable, no tee markers on the tees (not a problem), some of the fairways were either just planted or in need of being planted, some of the greens were in need of some TLC. Don’t get me wrong we had a great day and the weather was perfect. This course even on GN is a little more pricey than my budget but I could not pass up this opportunity. I would love to come back during prime time Summer and at a reasonable $.

Great Value!!
First time playing and was impressed for Greater Columbus Area. 83 Blues. Played on a dry day. Blue Tee boxes were good. The tips require shaping left and right and clearly further back. Par 3 boxes kind of rough. Longer course, gives a lot of fun options for some of the longer par 4s and 5s. Complaint: No sand in bunkers
Plays well but could use some TLC
Clover Valley plays well, but the course could certainly use some TLC. Bunkers are not kept up with at all. Greens and fairways weren’t awful however. Rough wasn’t unruly either. Not a bad course by any means, but it’s not worth it’s full price. Take advantage of a hot deal vs paying full price and you will probably enjoy it more. I will play it again down the line, but it’s not a first choice.

Poorly maintained
Worst bunker health ive ever seen. Was horrible!! Literally no sand - not kidding. Dry, burned greens due to zero watering. They've just given up on maintenance. Not worthy of your coin - trust me!

Nice course out in the country
Played here yesterday and enjoyed the course, especially the layout. It was challenging but not too much to discourage you. Only issue was that they must be redoing all of the bunkers because they were full of dirt, rocks, and a ton of standing water. Other than that, nice course!

Decent if it was half the price.
I think the pace of play issue we had was the two groups in front of us not the courses fault. But they have more over grown and given up bunkers then anywhere I’ve seen charging this much. Pretty course with lots of potential. But not worth it for price.

Improving more and more
I have played clover valley many of times and it has been in really bad shape the past few years. You could tell they just gave up on it. Since when I played this course in the early summer it had improved very much ! The greens roll true and smooth now and the fairways actually have some roll when they’re dry. Apparently the have got a new greenskeeper that started sometime this summer the pro shop told me. A little bit of money and laborers for the bunker and some spraying this course would be back on the top where it belongs. It has the best layout of any course around and the potential to be really something special ! Workers are very friendly and the food and beverages are very good and reasonably priced. I love this course !
