Good challenge.

Playing in December you can’t expect prime conditions. But if there’s a chance to play, I’m playing. Valley Ridge has something for every skill level. The only negative is the fact that the cart paths are all gravel and it makes for a rough ride all day.

Valley ridge golf course

Nice course friendly staff. No driving range🤨 the last few holes on the back nine are very difficult in my opinion. overall I had a good time hope your driver goes straight at the end of the game.

Fair for the price

It’s a $25-$30 golf course all day. Greens are usually in real good shape and have a lot of speed to them. Could be such a nice place if they’d put some money into it IMO

Bad Course Conditions

All tee boxes were hard and was missing grass. Big areas of missing grass on fairways and greens. The golf course was in bad shape. I would not recommend this golf course.

Staff was very friendly and helpful. The only positive of my day.

Won’t play here again

Horrendous pace of play, no enforcement what so ever. Greens are in bad condition, tee boxes feel like you’re hitting off of concrete. Sand traps are abysmal. No cart girl or water coolers on a 90° day. Safe to say I won’t return.

Very dry super fast greens

Basically i will start off and say we had alot of fun for our fathers day golf outing. This course isnt for the group that can't manage a straight drive well. And thats us. (Still all learning golf) the course goes between alot of houses and at times you are literally in someones backyard. But overall conditions were rough in some spots. Very very dry course, greens werent bad just super dry. They make a killer breakfast burrito though! Would definitely go here again just gotta work on our swing more lol

Not even worth the low price

Probably the worst course I’ve ever played. Conditions were terrible, some due to rain, but mostly not. Looks like shambles of makeshift construction sites every few holes. Cart paths look like dug out trenches, unpaved, rocky, and made for a miserable experience getting from ball to ball and hole to hole for 4+ hours!. Not anywhere worth the “hot deal” even at $30.
