Oak Valley Golf Club
About
Oak Valley Golf Club boasts the only Arnold Palmer-designed course in the Winston-Salem area. The course sprawls across what used to be old dairy farmland, nestled in the North Carolina foothills. Palmer utilized the rolling, wooded terrain and transformed the site into one of the Triad’s most scenic golf courses. The layout presents many challenges, including strategically placed sand traps along the undulating greens. You will also come across a fair amount of water hazards throughout the golf course. Palmer, known for his "go for broke" playing style, incorporated several interesting risk-reward holes and it has become what the course is known for. Good drives will be generously rewarded while an errant shot will make it tough to even get a bogey. Oak Valley Golf Club is a favorite among local golfers.

Highly Recommend Course
One of my favorite courses in the area. Great value, layout, course conditions and amenities.
Course need some work!
Course need some work! Greens have not recovered yet from the recent Airafacation putting is no fun at this time! Tea boxes could use a lot more grass they are looking pretty rough. Overall course layout is very interesting and fun. If I played this course again hopefully the conditions will be better because I enjoyed the layout!
No Warning on Greens
I'm so tired of GN not showing aerification warning for the golf course. The greens were covered with sand as it had only been 5 days since they punched and top dressed. We asked for a discount, but was told that the golf course had reported it to GN on Tuesday. The course does not reduced their price for aerification.
The starter did not have us on the tee sheet and wanted to see a receipt. The cashier in the golf shop said we wouldn't need one, so there was a "tiff" at the first tee as the starter thought we were trying to play for free.
Will not be going back to OV and I now know that I can't trust GN for the alerts, so I might as well call the course and make the tee time wherever I'm paying.. That way I can ask.
The pace of play was painfully slow on Monday. It was very windy and still pretty wet. There were also a lot of walkers on the course in front of me. Can’t wait to play it again!
Wet and firm and fast
The pace of play was on me, I played as a single and it was carts on path so it can only be so quick. The course was wet from all the weather but little to no problem areas on the course that I saw. Greens were in good shape and still very quick. Rough is still dead and matted a bit so there aren’t many bad lies to be found, Texas wedge players will enjoy the areas around the greens right now for sure!
I love this layout, it’s challenging but not punishing although there are some don’t miss there areas. I played a half dozen times last year and I’ll be back at least that many more this year!
Great course.
My favorite course to play within a 100 mile radius.
Highly Recommend Course
Highly Recommend Course. Great staff, course conditions, amenities, and experience. Thank you!
Oak Valley GC - Great winter play.
Oak Valley GC designed by Arnold Palmer is in excellent condition, with wide fairways, although not over seeded, really good lies are out there. The greens hold, and there very smooth & true. A must winter play.
Entire experience was awfu
I play Oak Valley all the time. I used GolfNow to book a tee time because it was late in the evening the day before and I couldn't get in touch with the pro shop. Booked the round and headed out there the next day.
Oak Valley didn't have me on the books and I actually didn't even get to play.
I will not ever use Golf Now to book a tee time again. Overall it was a terrible customer experience.
Good track
Greens in excellent shape, and fairways and tees as well. Play was a bit slow and they were behind on starting by about 15 minutes .
