Muddy Day
I was a single and the starter was very kind and let me start on the back since it was empty. I flew through that 9 in just over an hour. This side's layout and conditions were much better than the front. Fun design and decent shape for February. I can't say the same about the front. The layout was boring at first and then turned a little questionable 5-8. Also, it is a 5 minute cart drive from the clubhouse to the first tee... nothing wrong with that, but notable nonetheless. The greens all around were very nice given the circumstances. I bet they are very nice in the late spring/early summer. I would play here again w/ a good price like I paid $21 w/ cart. Hole #8 needs some work. It isn't even playable and doesn't look like a golf hole. Long Par 4 up the hill with trees everywhere and the "fairway" is 10 yards wide (exaggerated).
Overpriced/Not worth the money
Me and my group of friends have been playing this course for a while now. It’s our go to course ever since Pomme/Arnold Golf Club shut down. We only keep coming back for its location. There are much nicer courses in the St. Louis area for the price. Save your money and play a nicer course.
This course needs lots of attention.
I have played here many times over the past several years. I had hoped with the new ownership/management that the condition of the fairways and greens would have improved but they have gone the opposite conditon. We will not be playing here in the near future.
Hi, Lou. We appreciate you taking the time to review the course and rate us.

Thanks for visiting Oak Valley Golf Course & Resort. We hope you'll change your mind and give us another chance to show you how we've improved.
Beautiful
Played 12/8/2020. Beautiful day on a beautiful course.
Continuous Improvement
Great layout. Conditions are always improving. Staff is excellent from the pro shop to the restaurant, from the starter to the marshall. Play here a couple of times a month and is always enjoyable.
Continuous Improvement
Course is improving daily. The layout is exceptional.
The course has a good design
Course continually improves now with white sand bunkers. They need to work on getting yardage markers! Can easily become 5 stars with the improvements they are making!
will play this again
check in was a breeze--- marshall was very helpful went out of his way to talk to all of us -- greens great---been going out to this course for years --see improvement ever time out
Scenic and refreshing
Took a private tour around the property with Tom, great guy and very informative. Was at the end of fall season so naturally the grass was turning but greens were in great shape. Wife and I have played about six rounds since. Can’t wait for summer season! The grounds and layout are beautiful. Waiting to take advantage of outdoor pavilions and fishing with grandson, also the amazing water park. The staff is very friendly, we had lunch outside with view of Mississippi River. I know where our family will be spending are free time.
Thank you, Oak Valley

Hello and thank you for reviewing the course. Let us first start by apologizing for the poor experience you had during your visit. The current condition is by no means the standard we strive to achieve, and we are working towards getting things up to par. Thank you for playing Oak Valley Golf Course & Resort. We hope to see you again soon.
Oak Valley Review
The course is challenging and a little unforgiving for someone who plays bogey. Overall, the course is good, and I’ll play it again.
More yardage markers
overall a good course and a value for the money. The only complaint is put in a 100 yard post. There is a red marker buried in the fairway.. This course is difficult to judge distance with lack of visible markers. I can't imagine a wooden post being more than $10.!
Enjoyable to play
Weather and course conditions were perfect for a great round of golf.
Disappointed
Like the course
Unfortunately they had booked a tournament the same day as I reserved a tee time through Golfnow
40 minute delay teeing off on my “Hot Deal”
