I really like the course. These 18 holes are well manicured and the greens roll really true. Regretfully right now you need a blower because its the beginning of fall. Be aware its a great place to overhaul your ball collection because 14 of 18 holes have either water or marsh. Plus their rough is deep and thick. But its still a doable course. I lost 9 balls the first time I played the course and 1 last time. Regardless its a fun course. Be careful on 7 and 10 if you ask me though
Fell in love with this place. I played here a few days after an event at the beginning of October and the place was spectacular. Greens very receptive but smooth and fast. Rough was thick and definitely where you don't want to be. I already have a tee time to go back I loved it that much. Plus this is an Arnold Palmer course and he's from my home state.
My friend and I played here after our midterms. We paid around $80 for our tee times, which is a lot for two college students, but we wanted to treat ourselves after a tough stretch of exams. Oak valley looks great, and the staff is kind. What killed it was showing up to find the greens punched and packed with sand. Nobody mentioned it when we booked. Putting was basically a coin flip the whole round. For $80 I’d expect a heads up at minimum. We would’ve never booked for $80 under those conditions. I hope next time they can put it on the booking page to let people decide if they still want to play. We’d probably come back when the greens are in shape — but we’ll call first.
One of my favorite golf courses to play on since moving to Winston-Salem. We have family who live in Oak Valley so it's pleasantly convenient for us to come here when we visit them. The course offers a variety of layouts to play from that keep things interesting and it's always well-kept.
Just played this course on Father's day. Knew it was gonna be a rough day when the starter added another golfer to our foursome. They added a 5th to our group of 4 eventhou there was a single playing behind us. They charge the same price ($$) for playing 9 holes or 18 holes. $8 for a small bucket of practice balls. No senior discount. The course itself was in good condition, just not worth $75.
