About
The Valley Course is a heavily forested golf course is the original layout at the club. The course is unique in that it has relatively short yardages rated with such high slopes mainly due to the tight fairways and numerous elevation changes. The driver will most likely stay in your bag while the long irons will be used often. The golf course is very tight, offering an ideal place to get some practice with irons. It is also provides an ideal warm-up round for the more difficult course at the Horseshoe Resort, the Highlands Course.

Golfer Reviews
Hectic Horseshoe
Great course u pretty much cant go wrong here for $50. The course is deceptively short in that it plays much longer than the 5700 yard back tees. This is for 2 reasons,one is that it is a par 70 and the other reason is that the Fairways are extremely narrow with Outback waiting for you on either side. They send you a break though most of what would normally be unplayables, lost balls and out of bounds has been mercifully red staked. There on June 22nd it was absolutely PACKED (not the course the resort) for a Junior tournament qualifier and a Bike cross. No matter though after the first hole you find yourself is splendid isolation occasionally thinking you should have brought Bear Mace
Great day at Horeshoe!
We got the 18 holes and cart for a very reasonable rate on golf now., staff at the desk treated us great and there were only a few others around our tee time! the course was in excellent condition , maintained at a high level, we spread out quickly behind the other golfers and our pace was super! fantastic views from some of the tee boxes on a really sunny morning, Excellent golfing experience!
Would be 4 to 5 stars but...
Would be 4 to 5 stars if the conditions were consistent. There were fairways that are hard as a rock and some are normal.
A Great day out with my Dad
My Dad and I golfed this course this past fathers day weekend. And where treated to some of the best views I have ever seen with a club in my hand.
Overall a great experience and I would defiantly play here again. I would just bring a few extra balls. As the 12th swallowed a few.
needs work to the course
the greens where to long the tees where hard as rock couldn't get a tee in almost needed a hammer, needs better course management for such a high advertised resort it needs to be up dated
A challenging course
The Valley Course at Horseshoe is a beautiful and challenging course wit a lot of elevation changes and some narrow fairways. It is a beautiful course going through the Copland forest area with lovely scenery along with a great course.
Beautiful but unfair!!
It's a short but very difficult golf course. Playing from the back tees requires the ability to either shape shots or hit the ball onto incredibly small landing areas. The course is very very narrow and on most holes there is no forgiveness off the tee. If you are offline, you are in the woods and little chance of finding your ball.
The greens were very firm and hitting a solid shot would most often result in a huge bounce right off the green. Also I believe some of the posted yardages are incorrect but I didn't have a range finder to be sure.
All that being said it is one of the more scenic courses in the area. Each hole seems to be cut out of the forest. We even saw a deer!
It's worth a play just to check it out but I wouldn't get a membership!
Great course and good value.
The greens were aerated but we can see this course is well maintained.
We got a great deal and will come back again.
Challenging and scenic
Course is very challenging as narrow fairways on every hole. Might want to put away the driver on most holes unless you can hit it straight. Course in great condition and nice views.
Great front nine !
Great front nine. Second holes is very pretty long par 5. I was told that the front nine is the newer curse built about 10 years ago. This course used to be only 9 holes. Back nine is among the house but not in play. Greens were running about 9 to 9.5 and true. Staff were really nice and accommodating. Good value for the money . I would recommend this course to anyone.
Nice course, very Fast greens
Had a great time playing this fairly challenging course. Layout is a little more forgiving than the Valley course (I played Highlands), but the greens are LIGHTNING quick - many chips and putts ran out on all of us. But still was a great time. I managed to get a super hot deal ($26 including cart) and was well worth that price.
Great value at $29 from Gold Now.
The course is challenging especially the greens. You may be pulling your hair out at times. Sand in the traps was like clay.
Nice Target course
Nice target course. Play smart and you will score well. Green are nice and were running +/- 8.5 to 9. Greens are typical of any mountain course. First hole is a par 3 which is bit strange. I would recomrnend this course. Long hitters, play smart as several par 5 are very narrow and look intimidating.
Frost Warning
We had 9:30am teeoff on the valley course. We were delayed 1 hr due to a frost warning in the area so didn't tee up until 10:30am. Valley course is in great shape. I found it to be very challenging, don't let the course yardage fool you (from the whites I believe it's 5400 yards). Course requires you to be very accurate. Not a very forgiving course as balls to the left or right are gone as the course is very tree lined and narrow. Overall a great experience
Tougher Than You Think
Fairways are very tight . Don't let the short yardage fool you. You may want to leave the driver in the bag for most of the day if you want to score well.
Enjoyable day
The course was in good shape. It played a bit short for those who aren't long off the tee. Some fairways are narrow . Target golf on a few holes. It was fun and reasonably priced.
Beautiful Scenery
Horseshoe Resort's Valley Course may be short in overall distance but still offers several long par 5's. You will be challenged by the narrow fairways on almost every hole. The course is in very good condition with soft greens. Many holes offer amazing views throughout the valley. Playing in late September should offer some very colourful scenery.
A GPS is now provided on your cart & newcomer's to the course are provided with a course tips booklet. Pleasant overall service!
A very challenging extremely tight course.
A very challenging extremely tight course. Need to be very straight on most holes. Highland course on same property might be a better choice. Carts could use an update. Mounted handheld GPS stopped working early in the round. Restaurant "very" expensive, $16 for a hamburg & fries. 20 oz draft (domestic) $6.50. Friendly course attendants.
