They made sure our special day went smooth, they coordinated with the vendors and were there if anything went wrong. Aside from the wonderful coordinators at The Oaks, the venue itself is great!

I would 100% recommend The Oaks as a place to have your wedding.

I've been golfing Deer Valley for many years, and I love it there - it's my "go to" course,…read moreespecially when I can't find a great deal on something else. First, Deer Valley is an affordable course. I love to golf, but can't afford to shell out top-shelf prices for a round. HOWEVER, Deer Valley isn't exactly a cheap "hacker's course". There's a wide variety of hole styles to keep your attention, highlighted by their signature par-3 #5 that takes you 120 yards out, but straight down to a soft green. The view is intimidating, but it's a hole you could shoot at for hours. Immediately after #5, you're challenged to drive over the rocky, steep face that you just came down. There are holes with blind tee shots over hills, hard dog-leg turns, and plenty of terrain to navigate. I haven't even mentioned hole #1 - a long par 5 up a big hill (and almost always into the wind). Once you get past that hole, the rest doesn't feel too bad. Deer Valley is extremely scenic with tee boxes overlooking vast valleys. In the fall, the colors are breathtaking. Being removed from the big city, it's one of the most peaceful courses I've been on. Keep an eye on your ball, but don't forget to take in the scenic views and watch for wildlife! It's beautiful there! The new "Valley" nine is nice, but I still like the Ridge and Prairie best. Valley is a little tighter and most of the holes run in, you guessed it, the valley... Definitely a course worth hitting. If you're a prude and want to be addressed as "Mister", have your clubs cleaned by some high school boy working for tips, go somewhere else. If you're looking for a course that is great bang for the buck, to hang out with some friends and have a great time - hit Deer Valley.

This place is a little out of the way, but worth the drive. The food is quite good, better than you typically get with a place that is primarily a bar. Had a very authentic Chicago Dog with fries; the wife had a salad that had a variety of nice fresh greens and grilled chicken. Very affordable prices too-- dinner and drinks for two came to $31. The locals know this as a fun event space; there was a kids party going on downstairs when we arrived, complete with a bouncy house that was brought in. We will be back on our next visit to the area.

Been coming up here for 30 years with a group of guys. I took a minute to read the most recent…read morereviews and wanted to chime in. Yes, there are new owners and yes there were a few hiccups but I want to give them a chance to get up to speed with how they manage the process. There are a lot of groups that have been coming up there for many years and I'm not doubting they had some valid concerns, all I can do is speak from our experience of having 72 guys playing over 3 days and how accommodating they were to us. It definitely took more communication leading up to the event to make sure both parties were comfortable and confident expectations were met on both sides. Once our "tournament" started everything ran smoothly. I'm confident that they will reflect on their first season and refine some things, I know we're going back next year, and I hope the other long-term groups that had issues will give them another chance. If you've never been there and you're looking to bring a group of guys up there, keep your expectations realistic. This is not Whistling Straights, it is a family-run operation that provides a basic golf course, acceptable (but dated) accommodations and a great bar that is on premises. I for one want them to succeed

If you're looking for a golf course or anything resembling something like one, run like hell cause nothing at least 27 flag sticks with cups somewhere on the greens resembles anything like a golf course. The hotel room, I'm not sure what to call it. More like a murder scene with chalk lines that just got washed up. Resort is a lost cause at this point I'd just close it down and hopefully expect for a bankruptcy filing. Don't waste your money or your time. Both are important. Neither one of them will you be happy with wasting any time ever here?

The bunkers and Tees boxes could use some loving care but the fairways and greens are very very nice. Depending on the precipitation, the roughs encourage a player to stay in the fairways as they can wreak havoc on your second shots. Played in late October and the down leaves did not cause any issues in the way of finding balls throughout the course. I will definitely return as it is easy to get to from the Madison area. Facilities are definitely dated for this price range.

I'm just rating the golf, really. See other reviews for dining and whatnot…read more We had a golf outing here a month ago. The course was in really good shape. Perfect? No - certainly not this late in the season. But you could tell they put good effort into it. The layout is decent - not a lot of really memorable holes, but not a boring back-and-forth municipal type course. As any golf course that's new to me, I wish I had more insight into the layout. There are a few holes with creeks and nearby water that you might not be aware of when you hit. Then you find the water and think "I didn't know that was there!" A second round would go much better, I think! For me, I'm not sure it's worth the listed price to golf here (not for me, at least). If you're in the area, and you have it to spend - sure. It's a bit of a drive for me, and for the money, I can play better courses that are closer. The staff were friendly and helpful. The grilled food at the turn was okay. I didn't like the driving range where it was (especially... #18 where the range is on the right?). It's just a little too "in play" for two holes. While that affects not-so-straight drivers - it's also a little risky golfing those holes with folks actively on the range. There were plenty of range balls in both fairways to indicate there could be friendly fire...
