Worst cart paths ever!

Hey, it’s winter! Yardage markers are here and there, greens in tough shape, zoysia grass all brown and won’t hold the ball but otherwise it was only $15.00. Thanks tee off!

Great Golf Course

Always a pleasure playing Oak Valley GC. Fairways and greens were in overall good condition considering the extreme heat the past month. I look forward to playing it again in the future.

Fairways choppy

The tee boxes were actually in good condition and the greens are better than they were last time but the fairways had a lot of chunks of dry huge holes

Monstrosity or atrocity, you pick.

Myself and my friends have played this course multiple times and the on course conditions continue to deteriorate at a rapid rate. The course is knackered with overgrown grass, trees, and weeds, making enjoyment of the game nearly impossible. Greens are either dead or majority weeds. Fairways lack grass and are harder than a rock. Save your money or go to another course.

Thank you for reviewing the course. Let us first start by apologizing for the poor experience you had during your visit. The current condition is by no means the standard we strive to achieve and are working diligently to improve the course. Thank you for playing and we hope to see you again soon.

WANT A CHALLENGE?

This course offers some of the most challenging fairways and greens in the south STL area. This course is in great early spring condition especially after an overnight and early morning rain. Greens are in fantastic condition and unforgiving. Club house is awesome and the staff is very friendly and accommodating. I really enjoy playing Oak Valley and it never lets me and my friends down. Always a challenge!!!
Highly recommend Oak Valley GC!!!
