Valley Ridge Golf Course

Paying only $28 through GolfNow, went up to Antioch G.C. with a bit of trepidation after reading some of the reviews here. Was pleasantly surprised by the condition of the course, with the fairways in good condition, the rough thick in places as it should be. The greens could use a bit of work, but considering the winter we came off of, they were in better shape than some other courses I played. Fairways in spots were narrow, but really enjoyed the round and will play the course again.

Great course for the average golfer. Beautiful surroundings and challenging greens. We had a great time!

I am a beginner, so I don't need very good quality course. I came with my dad played just for fun. Everything was good there. The weather was hot. The beverage girl was everywhere when I didn;t need her and disappeared when I needed her badly.

As is the case with many willing golfers, my curiosity was peaked with the visuals presented online with the Antioch Golf course. So I gave it a shot. The price was reasonable, which further swayed my decision to scoff at the amount of gas I would have to spend for the trip. Everything leading up to the first tee lead me to believe this would be an enjoyable round; the staff was friendly, the guests/players were in great spirits, the course, from the view from the elevated tee box, appeared to be in pristine condition. Unfortunately, the conditions of the course suffered the same afflictions as many of the municipal courses I avoid like the plague; burnt grass, no sand ( only a substitute of dirt or pebble infested wannabe sand), and multiple sections, both on the fairway and first cut, of mud spots. But that was not the worst of it. I could actually live with that. I actually enjoyed the pleasing layout. Unfortunately, with the level of play at that course, a ranger was needed to speed up play. By the 7th hole, there were FOUR groups waiting to tee off; this is regarded as a cardinal sin with golfers. Mind you, the first six holes required a wait of 5 to 7 minutes to tee off from the box.

Played the white tees, lots of par 4s under 300 yards. Not for people who want a real fight from their golfcourse, but if you want to have fun, and a shot at scoring well, this is a great place to go. Worth the drive.

Nice greens, Course was wet due to recent heavy rain.

Best condition that I have ever seen at this course.

It's the second time that we have been here and enjoyed the course. We had a foursome in front of us that we caught up on the 7th hole that were very slow, young men in their mid 30's that did not play ready golf and stopped 10 min plus every time the young lady on the beer wagon came around. After the 9th hole we thought they had left only to catch up to them on the 12 hole, after waiting 15 min we went to have a beer and let a few hole pass.
3 hours for the first 9.

Great layout and great shape for the price. Util I par the course, this is the one for me.

Worth the $20-$25 riding if you can make it that far north to swing your clubs.

In the past I have played this course in under 3.5 hours. 5/31/14 was 5+.
The starter didn't make singles or deuces hook up. The tee times were to close together. Better planning next time would make it more enjoyable and would avoid having to make tee times elsewhere if I was a first time visitor. My hopes, this is more the exception then the rule.

Got to the course and saw we could save 20 bucks thro Golfnow, so we did and was very happy how quickly the tee time was confirmed. Great day for golf, three and a half hour round for my twosome. Only complaint is about the course itself, the 18th hole is a par three...

I played golf there many time and love to play there again.

A lifelong resident, I've played this course on/off since the 70's. Seen numerous owners over that time too. Conditions over the years ran the gamut, from good to god-awful.

This was the first time playing in a couple of years, but what a surprise over what was expected! The course was in GREAT condition, the employees very professional, and the food above par -- no pun intended.

Looking forward to playing again!

It's a short pat 70 but still took over 5 hours to play. It was horrible. There was no ranger so we were constantly waiting. Our group was a foursome and we were being held up the whole time by a group of 4 women. No one was infront of them. When I got to the course my group was ready to go off before this group of women but they refused to let us go first. Staff was not very smart. I will never play here again no matter what the price is.

Not challenging but pretty enjoyable. Some very interesting and challenging hole here and there. Not real hard but need accurate shot otherwise make you shameful. I like here good for shappening up shot.

Amazing value. Fairly easy course with a handful of beautiful challenging holes too. The par 3 number 6 was beautiful, never played a hole like it.

This course has a crazy layout that crisscrosses through condo streets. The directions are poorly marked and turns are easy to miss. Finding our way to the next hole was a major challenge. Only the locals seem to know where they're going and they are only friendly to each other.

I've played on tight courses before but the land utilization on this one is very weird as fairways are way too wide in some places and way too narrow in others. One of the fairways has an old unused green right in the middle of it at the bend. A very strange to play your second shot from. After making the turn we were unlucky enough to get stuck behind an owner or manager of the course entertaining his buddies that had no clue about pace of play. And at one point we were joined by two juiced up guys who were just cruising around playing here and there. They invited themselves to join us and then left abruptly after 3 or 4 holes. All we could do was just shake it off and consider the experience "par for the course".

The price on Golf Now was very cheap but I would not go back to play again - even for free.

i enjoy the course every time i play it. ready to try again in the summer

Was told about this course from a friend,said it had been a couple years since he was there and it was i rough shape. Had to let him know the wife and I were very pleased with the course. We realize it is end of the year and some things were under construction. Over all we were very pleased,some very challenging holes.
