Ariss Valley Golf and Country Club - Pines Course

Arrived at 1040am, marshalls circling us hole after hole. they were moving the green holes at 11am. Greens were bouncy and not cleaned off, chunks of grass everywhere. Tboxes unkept, no divot sand tons if divots no grass, ground was hard as a rock, very dissapointing to see such a scenic course in the shape it was in given all the water hazards and plenty of water sources. Appears someone lost the key for the sprinkle system.

This course is an excellent layout. However, the fairways were badly damaged. Appeared to be lack of watering. There was plenty of rain this summer so this was unusual. Sand traps were very hard no grooming. Greens were good with some damaged areas but very nice. All in all the course is very challenging to play and with a little TLC it could be a GREAT Course.

Grass was all burnt, fairways greens tee boxes. I’m not sure how that’s possible with all the rain we had this year. Bring a hammer so you can get your tee into the ground

Enjoyed the very friendly greeting by the starter and checkin attendant. Very picturesque course with a great mix of styles and difficulty. Will definitely be back!

Ariss Valley GC is a scenic course with no shortage of water hazards. My round occurred after an extended dry spell so the fairways were hard and fast. The greens contained a fair bit of dry patches, so irrigation might be a problem at this time of year. Nevertheless, an enjoyable round.

Good course and fair price!! Fairways and greens in good shape.

Course in good shape, fairways fast, greens receptive to shots. Front nine was a little slow having to wait on every tee.

Just a shame how this course has deteriorated since golf north took over. Tee blocks are in terrible shape greens are burnt off and all green approaches are weed infested. Have played this course many times over the years and find it so sad how it has fallen down. I know no one cares but we will not be back and will not encourage others to play there.

Could be a lot better , tee boxes unacceptable condition and a couple bunkers not taken care of eg . Lakes hole 8 par 3 , the bunkers in the back are in terrible condition…. If this corse was taken care of it would be beautiful, great layout , I would play again for the price , just need a better job on the tees and bunkers … nice layout!!!! Fairways in good shape !!!

The course has improved considerably since last year, however the tee blocks need watering, on some it was well near impossible to get the tee into the ground

The greens were adequate and nice and soft.

They were spoiled however by people not repairing their ball marks. On one green I repaired at least twentyand that was just ehere I was putting!

The tee boxes were also inundated with broken tees that inconsiderate people ( I can't call them golfers) not removind them or at least placing them near the markers.

The course was an interesting track. Too bad it was only par 35 on each of the nines, you'd like to se another par 5, but all the holes were appropriately challenging for a shorter course. The fairway wasn't cut much different from the rough, but the greens were in good shape (although lots of unfixed ballmarks...not the course's fault...but the fault of golfers.)

Have played this course before and think it is a real shame how it has deteriorated in the past two years since golf north became involved. Greens are burnt off lay up areas full of weeds and appears corners have been cut and maintanance has suffered. Tee blocks are almost unplayable and appears no efforts made to improve. Just too bad used to be a great place to place but will not be back

The tee decks are a dirty mess. How hard is it to fill some divots and grow new grass??? Also bunkers are running low on sand and greens have somehow got some burned off patches. $43 is priced right.
