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.

I have heard nothing but great things about this course and it lived up to the hype. The greens were smooth and fast. I cannot wait to play there again.
Excellent course
A very challenging course. Some hidden shots from the tee but a very fair and playable course. Greens were quick and in excellent condition
Most enjoyable
The course was wet in some places and the wind blew leaves onto the very fast almost perfect greens. The sun was shining so it was a very enjoyable round of golf in November. The course is pretty much in front of you without any surprises. Very well laid out and maintained.
Fast greens.
The course is in great shape. The recent rain left some wet areas and mud balls but was very playable. The wind was blowing leaves on the greens and increased the difficulty putting these fast greens. All in all an enjoyable round for November.
Solid Golf Course
Very nice course, with good deals on GolfNow. Able to play ball down. Enjoyable layout. Bent greens in good shape and relatively fast. Greenside and fairway bunkers are in good shape, but sand type and density is not my favorite. Bunkers are too full of soft sand, making bunker shots more difficult. Overall a very enjoyable course to play, and I look forward to playing it again.
Amazing Condition
Best condition i have seen this course and best i have played this year. Played the ball down all day in fairway and rough , no need to "improve" lie. Greens were smooth and good pace to make putts. Traps were nice and well maintained. Showed up a couple minutes late for tee time and staff was very cool and accommodating. Joined a couple guys that lived on the course that were very friendly and fun to play with. Couldn't have asked for a better day.
Greens terrible..and unfriendly staff
Had a 230 tee time...Spoke to the guy handling the carts 2 times and he has yet to speak back....just cordial...how's it going..aND see ya later....at end if round....greens were in bad shape,ball marks everywhere and dead spots, very thin...there were a couple in good shape.....save you money go somewhere else....
Best course around
Been playing this course for a long time and it's always been my favorite. They just renovated all the bunkers which makes playing this place an added bonus. The greens were in great shape, and rolling true. Tee boxes and fairways were in great shape. I could go on for days saying great things about this course. Whatever you're doing, keep it up!
Definitely Worth A Trip
Course was in good condition, you can tell the course has a lot of play but the greens were still good!
I would NOT play this course (especially on weekends) at their regular rate, but with a golfnow discount, its well worth your time.
By the way, been playing golf for 20 years and got my first ever ACE at this course, par 3 16th hole, 174 yards, 7-iron!!!
1st time
Great course ,tight fairways , excellent greens,will for sure be playing again
Great Track
Oak Valley is one of the best layouts in the area. The course is always in nice condition. Summer golf is stressful on bent grass greens so they're in good condition but not fast.
The bunkers were all redone in the last 6 months and the sand is great. However, the fairway bunkers need to get firmed up as they are too soft to make consistent contact.
All in all, very enjoyable.
Hot deal$14
Made the trek from Charlotte.What a find ,course was in great shape and is a good layout.We all said we would come back.The greens were a little slow but we assumed that was deliberate to protect them through the heat.Highly recommended.Snack bar also good and nice gentleman in pro shop.Thanks.
Wonderful conditions
First time playing this course. Both fairways and greens were in great shape. It is my understanding that the bunkers were upgraded over the last few years. They now have fluffy sand, which takes some practice to get used to. Definitely will be playing here again.
Great track
Signed up and got paired with 2 good players. Course was in great shape and a real test of golf. Pace of play was great and staff was outstanding. Will play again and carry my group to play this great zpslmer layout soon.
Awesome Conditions
Course is in impeccable shape. Fairways and tees are thick and proper. The greens had been aerated maybe a little more than a month prior, and they're rolling at a great speed considering the time of year and comparative to local courses in area. The greens also hold a shot properly on account of the aeration, and yet maintained their speed well. No question would highly recommend.
