Horseshoe Resort - Valley

It is a very picturesque setting in Horseshoe Valley at Horseshoe Resort. The fairways for the most part are narrow and treelined so a straight tee shot is essential. There is a fair amount of water on the course and quite a few holes have bunkers directly in front of the greens. The greens are challenging.

I'm sure you'll enjoy it.

Not overly long but challenging enough. Premium on straight as fairways not real wide. Our group would play it again. The only negative would be the bunkers. They looked good but in fact had a very thin amount of sand.

The staff was accomadating. We were there 30 minutes beforehand and the staff provided us with an option to start earlier!

The course was challenging for us as we were beginners. Most holes were protected by at least one bunker/ sand trap. Water hazards were present but limited to a few holes.

Some sand traps were wet as a result of prior days rain. As beginners, we were able to finish the course (full 18) in under 4 hours (with cart). The course marshal did come by once on the first hole.

Horseshoe highlands was a good course in great condition. I've played here a few times and have always had as great time. Staff is helpful and beverage cart comes around regularly. Only downfall I had when playing this course is the rate of speed that other individuals were playing. It makes you bored and anxious to shoot your next shot. Ranger or something needed to maybe regulate this. All in all. Great golf experience though. I will go back.

Keeping the ball straight is a must.
Only two holes are side by side, otherwise golf in a forest.

course was in terrific condition and was a fair test for the 15 to 25 handicapper

Great course not too long but choose your clubs well.

The drink service at Horseshoe was great, friendly and attentive staff but it lacks washrooms on the course.

Very nice course has lots of bunckers. The course was very busy but we got through it in about 4.5 hours Will go back.

I suppose if I'd paid more attention to the booklet that gives tips on how to play the holes I could have avoided some of the problems I found for myself - if I were the kind of golfer who could actually hit it where he intends to. Positioning is key on this course, and that is punishing for those of us who don't generally play that way. The greens are very difficult to read, but I'm sure playing it for something other than the first time could help remedy that. Very pretty and well-maintained, the course was enjoyable to play, though I did some grumbling about the long par 3s - mind you, par 3s have always been my nemesis.

With all the rain we have had the greens and fairways are in great shape. The greens must have just been cut ,they were fast.But the best part about this valley course is that almost each hole you feel like your out thier by yourself with all the trees.Its not all jammed in thier together.

Haven't played here for a number of years and was happy to see the course not only as good as it used to be ,but even better. From being met in the parking lot with a cart, through the pro shop and starter it was a great experience. Course was in excellent shape and the price on a hot deal was super.

Horseshoe Highlands is a challenging test of golf. Your drives BETTER be accurate … your approach shots accurate and your putter better be working … in order to score well. The greens are 'tiny' … they have plenty of slope and break so you'll need to lag putt most of them and be aggressive on those holes where you've stuck it close to the pin. The course is in excellent condition … the practice area is GREAT … with sand bunkers to use as well. All in all … while I griped about the narrow fairways … the course was a good test my skills … it was worth the drive …

Play was Very slow. No Marshalls or refreshment carts on the course.

I enjoyed playing this course. It was in excellent condition, challenging and the game moved at a good pace.

Very scenic, well maintained,definetly will play it again

Some drainage issues. Some of the course layouts were not visible. Hole layout on the score card would be helpful. No water in one outhouse used. Good for the price we paid though.

The course is relatively short (blue tee is under 5,800 yd).

Good value and fast play.

is in good condition and is well worth the money on a golfnow deal

It's been a few years since I played the Valley. I heard it wasn't that great but didn't listen to the critics, thank God. This is a must play, I totally found this as tough as I've ever played. The greens where spectacular and quick for the amount of rain we got. My playing partner is a single digit handicap, I witnessed a smooth 94 YIKES!! (this course can bite you!) You MUST hit it straight, I never lost a ball and shot a 72, for me that is an unreal score.
Both of us are considering joining as members. I have no issues at all spreading the word about how great the Valley is. Good Luck, and play well!!
