Sun Valley Golf Course

Course is great layout and conditions. The greens rolled well. A little slower, but we had quite a bit of rain over the previous week. Definitely a must play course at these prices.

Sun Valley is a great deal if you don't mind driving to Elsberry MO. The course is in great shape.

The course was in immaculate condition for today’s round. The fairway’s plush and the rough was perfectly cut for consequences of not staying down the middle. The green’s were in excellent condition (soft, smooth rolling surfaces). The golf course definitely hired a phenomenal grounds crew supervisor based on the condition of course. Great work!!!!!!!!

Finally made the trip out there for a great time on a course with wild elevation changes. Despite the heat and lack of recent rain, the course was in solid shape. The greens were a bit baked out and fast but putts rolled pure.

One of the big reasons we wanted to play it is because of the par-6 fifth hole. We played the gold tees on the day, but decided to play that hole from the tips – 725 yards!!! I three-putted for bogey but that hole was a blast to play.

Overall, SV is a fun and interesting course with hardly any flat holes. Good mix of easy and difficult holes. Some of the tee boxes are perched up high on hills and provide great views of the surrounding area. We played on a hot weekend and did not have any pace of play issues. I think we finished in 3:45, which was great.

The staff gets high marks for being friendly. Coming in, I thought I would be rating the course a bit lower but it is five stars for me. Plus, for the rate we got, I can’t wait to play it again in the future!

I've played this course maybe 8 times in the past 12 months and even tho it's nearly an hour drive for me to get there, I'm never disapointed in the challenge and how nice the course it kept up. The staff is really friendly and I've only had one time during the height of the Pandemic where the pace was slow. Such a beautiful course that is a must play at least once in your life.

Nice course, well maintained, good value. Staff simply needs to insure players on the course are keeping pace. This is a recurring issue at the course.

It had been a while since we’ve played Sun Valley but wow! This course is in excellent shape- from tees to fairways to greens- no complaints! We need to book again soon- such a beautiful course!

I played the course after it first opened. It has improved 100% since then. Beautiful course. Fairways and greens were perfect. Fun to play. I would definitely recommend this course.

Great course! Hidden gem in Elsberry, MO. We will be back

Staff is garbage. Course is garbage. Greens are terrible and look like an 8 year old cut them. Pro shop also garbage.

Dont go here. Its sad because Bear Creek is nice which is crazy considering its the same owner.

PS

The old man marshal needs to get a life.

Big storm on Saturday, so I figured it would be cart path only. But we got there at 7:20 or so after driving for an hour and the guy at the counter, who is always very nice, said it was cart path only and we would have to play front 9 twice. Well...not only did that rub us the wrong way, it was pretty cold and windy. This came in to play at the turn when small surprise, they were still had people coming in for tee times. We already had a slow 9 because the foursome in front of us did not know how to deal with the whole cart path only thing, but after number 9, there were 3 groups on the number one tee. Needless to say, with the weather and the slow play, we were done. They did give us a rain check, but we drove an awfully long way to play 9 holes.

Sun Valley Golf Course is a beautiful Course with a tremendous amount of elevation change which lends to great golf and stunning views of the Missouri hills.
