Course was nice! Staff was rude. Was 10-15 minutes early and staff said they were about to mark us off for the day.

Rough

Could be the worst course conditions I've ever seen for a course not undergoing a renovation. Probably the worst conditioned course in the Shenandoah Valley (yes worse than Packsaddle). The par $5 par 3 in the town of Bridgewater is better currently (Sandy Bottom park). I've never seen this place like this not sure if its new management or lack of help but its poor. On the bright side the Miller Grille is fantastic, good people and good good food.

Poor Course Condition

This course is currently in pretty bad shape. The fairways are missing large areas of grass and the tee boxes are like concrete. The one positive is if you fly the ball onto the green, it does tend to stick.

Terrible course conditions

Played here many times. This time the course was in the worst condition I’ve seen. Fairways were burnt up. The greens had awful spots all over them. The tee boxes were awful and ground was so hard you could t put a tee in the ground.

The course, overall, was beautiful. It was very scenic and had really nice views of the Shenandoah Valley. The tee boxes were in need of some care. We were backed up on the front nine, but not so much on the back. We were a little confused on some of the holes as to where the green was, but fortunately we were playing with another couple who had played here before.

It was a fun course and will look forward to playing it again.

Nice Overall

The course has a number of interesting holes. Empty at 9am on an August Friday, was able to go out as a single and finish play uninterrupted in 2.5 hours. Fairways in rough shape, patchy and grass of varying lengths. Greens were pitted with divots. Tee boxes a little rough. Played creek/miller, miller has a number of blind tee shots which made it more challenging. Overall, average course, decent price, but I’d probably go back and play Lakeview for the same price before returning here. Worth it if you can get a good discount rate. I

Interesting layout

Challenging course with no flat areas. A lot of placement is required and the greens have a little trickiness to them.

Shenvallee course review

Shenvallee is a fantastic golf course! The three 9 hole options (Olde, Creek, and Miller) are all beautiful with diverse layouts. Course conditions were great. It is a great value for the cost. I will definitely be going back!

Super Layout. Conditions Decent

Enjoyed playing the course, The shop and starter (Morgan) were excellent. I enjoyed the layout. The tee boxes need a little work, the greens were fine and rolled well. The Miller Grill is a nice touch for lite fare.

Beautiful course

The wife and I was visiting in the area and decided to play a round of golf here. Was not disappointed with the course. Very pretty and well maintained course. We actually made a comment to each other about workers being all over the course. The rolling fairways were fun and in tip top shape. Highly recommend this course.
