Bay Valley Hotel & Resort

1st time playing this course. Proshop was very sparse, but staff was friendly and helpful. Practice facility was fine with two putting greens. Starter got us off early and 1st few holes were fine. After that, we waited on every tee box at least 10 minutes which resulted in nearly a 6 hour round. The guys behind me were a 5 some and had a cooler boom box and would drive right up while you were teeing off with the music blasting - no course marshalls ever said anything to help play. Great course fo the $$ and I will go back, but beware of Saturday morning tee times and slow play - maybe a weekday morning would be better!

Being new to the course, we struggled a bit figuring out where the next hole was located. Twice we had to ask other golferes. Otherwise, nice day out golfing.

Great course! 2 of us riding took 3.5 hours on a Wednesday. You must have a good drive to par this course. Staff was friendly and helpful. Had a bad thunder storm at 4am with a lot of rain, and the course was in great shape like nothing happened by 1230 for our tee time. Great value.

Enjoyed the course. Pace was a little slow. The greens were definitely not fast. That was the most disappointing part of the round.

Bay Valley Golf Club is a great layout and well maintained.
At $23/18 holes with cart, I do not think you can find a better value in Michigan.
Pace of play was reasonable at about 4 hours on a Friday afternoon.
Definitely would recommend this course.

Course is in great shape. The play moved right along, the holes had a good variety, some easy some more challenging, and greens were smooth at a reasonable speed.

Course was in great shape,fast greens. Was great to see some deer and fawns on the back nine. Play moved along at a good pace for a holiday. Staff was friendly and helpful, will play there again.

Overall the course was in good conditions, and the greens rolled true. I thought the greens were challenging so it stayed very interesting. I paid 23 dollars for 18 and a cart. Normal price was 50 dollars on the weekend. I thought for 23 dollars it was a great deal, but I would never pay the normal 50 to play there. Great course when you can get the deal!

League play slowed me downed for the first 9. Rushed back 9 just to finish the complete round.

This course is well maintained. Always a good lie in the fairways.

When I booked the tee time I saw a it as an unbelievable deal. After approaching the first tee mW and my playing partner saw why it was a deal. Not only were we booked for the 6pm tee time but apparently so were the 20 players waiting in front of us on the first tee. I cannot complain about the rate because it was $8 for "18 holes". But we barely had enough time to play 9 holes in 3 hours on tye dot and quit at dark. Next time around I will pass if the same offer stands.

They were very friendly, called us by name. Resevations right on details and lovely practice putting greens available. Played as twosome and had no problems. Very scenic course.

The tee boxes are flat, the fairways are in great condition with nice grass. The greens were a little fast but in nice condition.

A nice golf course and with a strategic layout with tee boxes with varying distances. Never too crowded.

Bay Valley’s a demanding golf course. There are a few easy holes and a number of rather challenging ones. Holes 6, 8, and 14 are especially difficult. Water comes into play on 13 of the 18 holes. The greens are huge and most are multi tiered. I thoroughly enjoy playing this course again and again.

A challenging course with opportunity to score on the par fives and a few short par fours.

The course was in great shape and is very fair for a variety of golfers. We stayed at the resort as well, the rooms are fair, the exterior of the building needs some attention. The restaurant at the resort wasnt as enjoyable as last year, maybe we caught the restaurant staff on a less than good night.

This course is very playable from the blues for the average player. Don't be afraid to take your "Better Half" with you. The Reds are very friendly for the ladies. The only force carry for the women is on the Heather Hole. Par 3 75 yards over a dry swamp. The greens are fast, but put true.

There is a lot of water on the back nine. It is more of an illusion that a real hazard to your score!

When we played Bay Valley,it had rained about 6 inch's the night before. For the most part the fairway's were dry, and the green's were in good shape. One par three tee was moved on the other side of the river,do to mud. Would like to play it again when the weather and ground's or better.
