Oak Valley Golf Course & Resort

My first time playing OV this year and was VERY disappointed in the condition of the course. Ground under repair for the removal of several traps on the back 9 has it looking really bad. Fairways are in terrible shape and tee boxes aren't much better. Greens are in decent shape. This course has slipped badly since being purchased from the Teamster's Union by a private entity.

Course has a lot of bare spots and at times you hit off dirt. Definitely not worth $45 a round

First off the round costs $40 during the week. This has been one of the worst condition courses I’ve ever played(no exaggeration). I play lots of rounds near the St. Louis area and beyond. The fairways were not mowed well and there were foot tall weeds everywhere in them. That alone just the overall stand of grass was very thin. Tees boxes were well dirt boxes for the most part with the exceptions of some weeds for ground cover. The greens were in okay shape but nothing to ride home about. Nevertheless don’t waste you time or money. There are plenty of well maintained courses nearby and for a lot less.

First time playing this course. Layout is okay. A lot of uphill fairways and fairways that runoff to the left or right. Fairways were in bad shape. Guy in pro shop said the used to be worse three years ago. Can’t imagine. Greens were in good shape. Not a place I would play more than a couple times a year. There are better courses for same price.

Tee boxes are in bad shape and most are not level. Greens were very inconsistent. Course really isn’t in great shape. Layout is very straight; not much strategic play required. Probably won’t be back.

Pace of play horrible. Multiple grips on each tee box. Fairways not much grass. Tee boxes need work. Greens best part of course.

Have played here before and it will be a while before I come back. Has a lot of repairs going and not worth $30.

The course was in great shape. Greens were good, tee boxes weren’t chewed up, and even with new sand getting put in, the course was in great shape.

The course is coming along. Still think its overpriced and especially for this time of year. Pace of paly was what I thought it would be. They packed the course because of the rare nice weather which I understand. If your going to make my 2some into a 4some then you should have done that to every group and maybe the pace would have picked up a bit. 5 hrs. and 15 min. is to long. We'll see again after the spring greenup if the fairways are coming along as good as the bunkers

Fairways need heat. They're horrible at the moment

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).
