Get out your chisels, carve those "strong rumors" in stone.....Hidden Valley has been sold to housing developers and the company who run the place know they only have until June until they have to find new jobs. This is sad. I was a member of the Men's Club there, and have played the course often. It's quirky, a different sort of track....hilly - and definitely makes you think about "risk and reward". If you wanna get out an play before the bulldozers come....don't expect to see top-notch conditions. There are some noticable thin spots in some of the fairways - and I think the groundskeepers may have already been put on unemployment. There was a day when you had to watch out for 25+ guys on tractors and lawnmowers....wearing hard-hats - on Saturday (2/28) there were none to be seen. They have kept the greens in good shape though.

I say get out and say good-bye to a fun place! It will certainly be missed as one of our options.

There's a strong rumor of this course closing in July or August, and that's too bad because it's an interesting and challenging course. It's just not worth $95 Saturday green fees. Played there on 2/8 in a tournament. It took over 5 1/2 hours to play. Possibly due to the 20 - 30 MPH winds that made some holes nearly unplayable. It was nice to reach the par-5 11th in two with driver-pitching wedge, but coming up 60 yards short of the par-4 18th with driver-2 iron was a little frustrating. Lightning-fast greens with lots of break. Lots of places to lose golf balls.

Played 12/1/03, greens were in good condition but fairway needed some work, bare in a lot of places and muddy in others. You have to hit the fairways beacause it is easy to lose balls in the hillsides... Continue »

Played 12/1/03, greens were in good condition but fairway needed some work, bare in a lot of places and muddy in others. You have to hit the fairways beacause it is easy to lose balls in the hillsides. Also some greens did not have good pin placements since you could chip to the flag and then watch your ball roll back off the green.

Played 9 AM,pace of play was very good, lots of 2 somes and we were a 4 some but pace was good. Heard rumors that this track was going to be sold for homes and I guess its true,not positive but no one denies it,, front nine to go in spring and then back nine later.We used to play here a lot when it was a bargin and then went elsewhere when they thought they had an Ocean Trails or whatever in the middle of nowhere. Its not the middle of nowhere anymore, houses,expensive houses, are creeping up to the fairway boundries. We had to play once more, what we found was a great test of golf,temp in the mid 70's greens were great,fairways were OK, they did not overseed the fairways, staff was just fine. Would suggest playing this course as its soon to be gone. If ya spray the ball all over the place you wont have much fun, its not that tight, but penalties are severe. We always referred to Hidden Valley as Pelican Hills without the ocean views or the stupid green fees. .

A very pretty and different kind of course. I hesitated playing here because I heard it was kind of a "hokey" layout. It is very different, but I am glad I played it and will definitely come back.

Suppose to close next spring. Looks like general revenue drop has caused cut back on maintenance
